Discover the most beautiful coasts of Denmark, Bornholm, and southern Sweden.

Fancy a unique sailing adventure? Step aboard and sail with the Iris from Kiel to Karlskrona – through the enchanting island world of the Baltic Sea, past charming fishing villages, white chalk cliffs, and idyllic anchorages.

On this journey, you’re not just a passenger – you’re part of the crew. Together we’ll hoist the sails, steer the ship, and you’ll learn the ropes of traditional seafaring. In between, there’s plenty of time to relax – whether it’s soaking up the sun on deck or getting cozy in the saloon below.

A true highlight is our stop at Bornholm, the ‘Pearl of the Baltic Sea’. This charming island offers diverse landscapes, picturesque villages, and cozy harbors. Nearby lies Christiansø – a small, car-free island with an impressive historic fortress and a truly unique atmosphere.

Møn is another must-see – famous for the majestic Møns Klint, dazzling white chalk cliffs that rise steeply from the sea. In Sweden, you’ll discover the island of Härnö on the High Coast: a place of breathtaking views, dense forests, and the renowned Höga Kustenleden hiking trail.

Depending on the weather, we sometimes anchor overnight – a magical experience under the starry sky. The exact route is flexibly decided by the crew on-site, ensuring we make the most of the wind, weather, and the most beautiful spots along the way.

In the harbors, you have the freedom to explore on your own – wander through charming streets, taste local specialties, or head out into nature.

This trip offers the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, nature and sailing – an experience you’ll never forget.

Frequently asked questions

We still handle your bookings personally and therefore do not have an automatic booking system. This way, we can enable you to reserve individual places for a few days without any obligation. This allows you, for example, to arrange your holiday without someone stealing your place from under your nose. For this reason, we cannot keep track of the exact number of free places on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that plenty of free places are still available on all trips that are not marked as ‘fully booked’ or ‘Last Minute’. Call us or use our booking form if you want to know the exact number of places available.

If you are travelling alone and have not booked a private cabin, you will be accommodated in a shared cabin. The shared cabins are usually assigned based on gender.

Exceptions:

  • On the Belle Amie and the Seatrips yachts, there are sometimes mixed-gender cabins as well.
  • On the Sir Robert, there are no shared cabins. Are you traveling alone? Then you must book a single cabin..

Yes, vegetarians and allergies/intolerances can be catered for on most ships. On some ships, the menu can also be adapted for vegans. However, there is only one menu per day on the programme. Therefore, please let us know during your booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

In principle, all our trips are suitable for both experienced and novice sailors. The professional crew on board will teach you everything you need to know. In some cases (e.g. on Atlantic crossings) initial sailing experience may be an advantage/requirement. In this case, this will be clearly indicated in the cruise description.
