Possible stopovers in Denmark, as well as on Rügen and Hiddensee.

Get ready for an unforgettable sailing trip along the German and Danish Baltic coasts! Your journey begins with an overnight stay in Rostock, where you will be welcomed on the first evening with a hearty stew. The captain will give a brief introduction, and then you will have time to explore the historic port city or admire the impressive traditional ships of the Hanse Sail.

The next morning, it’s time: we cast off! We set course for the Danish islands, and towards the end of the journey, we make stopovers on Hiddensee and/or Rügen to explore these unique natural paradises. Ideal conditions for an adventurous and authentic sailing experience aboard our historic ship!

Feel the freedom of the sea, enjoy the view of pristine shores and experience the Baltic Sea in a sustainable way. In fine weather, we can drop anchor in the evening and enjoy the sunset in the middle of the water – a magical moment to remember.

Our final leg takes us through the scenic waters between Rügen and the German mainland—or offshore via the open sea—to Sassnitz, a charming harbor town on the island’s eastern coast. This idyllic destination lies just a stone’s throw from the iconic white chalk cliffs and offers direct access to Jasmund National Park—an ideal spot to extend your holiday on land.

On August 16 and 17, Sassnitz also sets the stage for a spectacular international sporting event: the very first Germany Sail Grand Prix. As part of the prestigious SailGP competition, national teams race cutting-edge 50-foot foiling catamarans across the water at speeds of up to 100 km/h.

Sassnitz was chosen for its ideal sailing conditions just off the coast, allowing spectators to get a close-up view of the action. The natural beauty of the area—featuring the dramatic chalk cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and the historic harbor—provides a breathtaking backdrop for this unique sailing experience.

You can optionally extend the trip and add the regatta weekend. Together with the Elegant, you’ll sail to the regatta fields, where you can experience the spectacle up close.

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.
