Life on a sailing voyage
On a sailing voyage we never use the word itinerary, as skippers will always be aiming for the best sailing and shore landings for the forecast and most idyllic or sheltered anchors and ports. They are as keen as you to include some of the highlights describe, but you have to go with Mother Nature, not fight her. The description below is based on what we think might be possible, based on past trips, or experience, but nothing is guaranteed on a sailing voyage. If the following voyage description is not fulfilled for any reason, Maybe Sailing and Maybe Sailing Youth Initiative cannot be held responsible.
You will arrive in the beautiful city of Fredrikstad, to enjoy the fantastic Norwegian hospitality before a stunning parade of sail as the tall ships cruise along the stunning Norwegian coast, to Bergen.
Throughout this voyage, the Tall Ships fleet will have the opportunity to take part in a non-competitive event – a cruise of friendship and adventure. You will have the opportunity to enjoy invigorating sailing, amazing coastal scenery and an excellent programme of activities as you sail around the Norwegian coast.
Stopping in selection of ports along the way, this voyage is the perfect chance to experience all that Norway has to offer. You’ll find wonderful landscapes, natural reserves, amazing bays, safe anchorages, historical ports, diverse dining, cultural experiences and much more.
