Pelican of London Youth Adventures
Join a beautiful voyage with young people from Ireland, Spain and Latvia. Spend 6 days on board the Class A Tall Ship Pelican of London, sailing in British and Irish waters, calling at Isle of Man, Scotland or Wales (depending on the wind.)
Enjoy the time spent out on the sea, and being one with nature: search the waves of Irish Sea for dolphins, observe the sun setting over the horizon, and admire the stars without light pollution.
Learn to steer, navigate, climb the masts, and hoist up the sails while singing some shanties together.
Make new international friends and together sail the Ship towards your next destination.
