what do we take?

Packing list for sailing trips

As we sail in international waters, you will need a valid passport or identity card!

As for clothing, bear in mind that it can be humid and very cold or very sunny at sea at any time of the year. It is better to bring one more jumper than one too few. Headgear and sunscreen are also a must!

If you cannot only play a musical instrument, but also like to do so on board, the crew will love it if you bring it along. Otherwise, limit your luggage and personal equipment to the essentials. Binoculars, a music system and various books and board games are available on most ships.

If possible, avoid hard suitcases. If you don’t have a duffel bag to hand, rolling bags or travel bags are a better alternative.
