Trip information

“Cast off!” for a six-day sailing trip, during which we plan to visit some of the most beautiful Baltic Sea harbours in Schleswig-Holstein. Eckernförde’s town harbour is the starting point for this trip, which takes us through Eckernförde Bay and across the Fehmarn Belt to Lübeck Bay. Depending on the weather conditions, stopovers in southern Denmark are also possible.

The itinerary includes arrival in Lübeck on Friday morning (16 April). This gives you a full day to explore the city’s sights without having to book an extra night’s accommodation at a hotel.

This is where you board

Eckenförde

Eckernförde delights with its maritime charm: the long sandy beach invites you to swim, while the historic old town with its colourful gabled houses and the Sankt Nicolai church tower tempts you to take a stroll. The harbour, the Baltic Sea Information Centre and the candy factory are also worth a visit.

Eckernförde is idyllically situated on the Baltic Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein. In the town harbour, you can take a stroll along the inviting harbour promenade, which is a popular attraction for guests and locals alike. The fine sandy, four-kilometre-long beach with its colourful beach chairs is only a few minutes' walk away.


Make the most of your stay by taking a leisurely stroll through the shopping streets in the immediate vicinity of the harbour area. The historic old town invites you to wander around its lovingly restored half-timbered houses, small boutiques and winding alleys. Particularly worth seeing is the 13th-century St. Nicolai Church, whose tower offers a wonderful view of the city and the sea.

This is where you disembark

Lübeck

As a maritime museum, the Holstenhafen is home to numerous traditional sailing ships. The first port of call is the Holstentor (photo), which many people still recognise as the image on the back of the 50-DM banknotes. From this landmark, a small bridge leads into the ‘City of Seven Towers’.

In the 14th century, Lübeck was regarded as the “Queen of the Hanse”. Even today, the city’s coat of arms still features the red and white shield of the Hanseatic League. It is well worth visiting the nearby European Hanseatic Museum. The multimedia exhibition explores trade, cultural history and seafaring across 600 years of the Hanseatic era. Housed in a former castle monastery, the museum, with an area of 4,000 square metres, is regarded as the world’s largest exhibition dedicated to the Hanseatic League.

 

Our tip: In the evening, you can take part in a guided night watchman’s walk through the historic city centre. Incidentally, a particular speciality has been produced here since the Hanseatic era – the world-famous Lübeck marzipan.

Seeing this magnificent sailing ship glide through the waves powered only by the wind is an indescribable feeling. There is nothing more beautiful.

Fellow sailor, about her trip in the South Funen Archipelago

A dream has come true with this sailing trip on the Eye of the Wind, which revealed its full charm under full sail. A wonderful vintage vessel! The young crew look after and maintain this beautiful windjammer with great love, dedication and seafaring expertise.

The journey is over, but the magic lives on!
