Adventure on the Wadden Sea and North Sea

This sailing journey across the Wadden Sea, along the Dutch and German islands, and through the Kiel Canal is made for true adventurers—and it’s much more than just “going along for the ride.” Together with a professional crew, you’ll take turns on watch day and night, as the distances between ports are often long and the tides dictate our daily rhythm. Experience a breathtaking sunrise at sea and enjoy the view of pristine North Sea beaches and the bustling maritime traffic heading toward Bremen, Hamburg, and Scandinavia.

From the German Bight to the Kiel Canal

The last part of this trip takes us across the German Bight and the Elbe to the NOK. If the weather is very good, a trip to the island of Helgoland is of course also possible. As with any trip, the weather decides! In the worst case, it may even turn into a motor trip. That would be the case with a persistent easterly wind or complete windlessness, but we don’t want to assume that. In any case, we guarantee you an unforgettable time on board with lots of new impressions and experiences!

Frequently asked questions

We still handle bookings personally and therefore do not have an automated booking system. This allows us to offer you the option to reserve individual spots without obligation for a few days. This way, for example, you can arrange your vacation without anyone snatching your spot right under your nose. For this reason, we are unable to keep track of the exact number of available spots on a daily basis. However, we regularly check the availability of our sailing holidays. Therefore, you can generally assume that there are still enough available spots 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 available spots.

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.
