This sailing trip takes place during the Whitsun weekend, a perfect time for an adventurous trip across the Baltic Sea. The long weekend offers plenty of time to enjoy the sailing, the picturesque ports and the natural beauty of the region. Get away from everyday life for a few days and enjoy the freedom and cosiness on a traditional sailing ship.
The trip starts in Rostock, a historic port city on Germany’s Baltic coast, famous for its ancient shipping traditions. From Rostock, you sail towards southern Denmark, choosing from several wonderful stopovers, depending on wind and weather conditions.
Nysted, a picturesque Danish port town on the island of Lolland, is a possible stop. It’s a quiet place with quaint streets and an idyllic atmosphere, plus very tasty Danish ice cream. Or perhaps sail to Klintholm on the island of Møn, famous for its impressive chalk cliffs and unspoilt nature. This area is a hiker’s paradise, with dramatic views over the Baltic Sea.
Stopovers in Germany may also be on the itinerary, for example Fehmarn, known for its beautiful beaches and picturesque countryside. Another possible stop in Germany is Kühlungsborn, a charming seaside resort with a rich maritime history and an ideal place to experience the atmosphere of the Baltic Sea.
The voyage can also pass through the Guldborgsund or the Grønsund, narrow straits connecting the Danish islands of Lolland, Falster and Møn. Sailing through these waters offers spectacular views of picturesque nature and historic villages along the coasts. The calm waters and dramatic scenery make this region particularly attractive to sailors.
During the trip, guests will have plenty of opportunities to participate in the sailing itself, from setting the sails to performing manoeuvres and even helping in the kitchen. This active participation makes the trip even more special, and makes everyone feel connected to the ship and crew.
A perfect combination of adventure, nature, and culture, this sailing trip offers a chance to discover the pristine beauty of the German and Danish Baltic coasts.
