What to pay attention to
How do I find a suitable ship for a group sailing holiday?
Want to plan a sailing trip for a group? We have ships in all sizes and price ranges. Therefore, think carefully about what you are looking for beforehand. The following points can help you:
- Sailing area/departure port: a trip on the Baltic Sea or perhaps prefer the IJsselmeer and the Wadden Sea? More information on the possibilities can be found under ‘Sailing areas’.
- Period/dates: tell us your desired travel period and, if possible, alternative dates.
- Number of sailors: how many people would you like to sail with? How many cabins should the ship have?
- Equipment/comfort: the interior of the ships ranges from rustic to luxurious. Please let us know if you have any special requirements regarding the accommodation.
- Budget: If you have a limited budget (for example, for a school trip), please let us know in advance, so that we can take this into account when choosing a ship.
- Catering: self-organized or fully catered by the ship?
Catering can be fully organized according to your wishes and budget. On almost all ships, you can also provide for yourself. A fully equipped galley is available for this purpose.
Then send us your enquiry with the details above. Just use our enquiry form. We will get back to you as soon as possible with a tailor-made quote.
Do you still have questions or don’t know exactly what you are looking for? We would be happy to advise you personally. Feel free to call us for a no-obligation consultation. Contact us here.
How does a day of sailing with a group unfold?
After arriving on board, you will be welcomed by the captain and his crew and the main ‘rules of the ship’ will be explained. You will get to know your fellow sailors and together we will discuss the sailing holiday group trip. On the first day of sailing, after breakfast, you will receive detailed explanations about the ship and sails. Then the sails are hoisted and a course is set for the first destination port. The adventure begins!
Each day we will sail for an average of 5-8 hours. At the end of the day, we will sail into a cosy harbour or anchor in a beautiful bay. Of course, besides sailing there is always plenty of time to get to know the surroundings. The route is never fixed in advance, but depends on weather and wind. Relaxing days with sun and swimming are just as possible as days with a lot of wind and demanding sailing – it’s all in there.
For catering, a fully equipped kitchen is available on all ships. It has proved useful to form small cooking groups that take turns preparing and washing up meals for the whole group. Of course, this is also a fun way to get to know each other and build a team. On some ships and on our individual trips, it is also possible to book a trip with full board. Feel free to ask about the possibilities and get in touch for a group sailing holiday.
