*Last places available – contact info@windseeker.org before booking * No time for crossing the oceans? Good news! You don’t need to spend weeks on a Tall Ship, you can join even for 3 days. Whether you’re a new Tall Ship sailor and you don’t know whether you’ll enjoy the time on board, or you simply don’t have any more vacation days, this trip is a really nice alternative to longer voyages. You will board in Scheveningen near the Hague, and sail along the coast of the Neterlands to the famous German port of Hamburg. You will help to sail the Ship, with the instructions from profesional crew. This is a perfect Tall Ships sailing taster trip for anyone! Open for all ages, minimum age 15 years.

Ports

Scheveningen is a popular sea resort in the Netherlands, a stone’s throw away from the seat of government in The Hague. It has a busy marina and a lively (somewhat kitschy) promenade – great for an afternoon of sightseeing. You’ll also find plenty to do nearby. Go for a walk in the dune landscape or take a tour around the Palace of Peace. Visit Madurodam to see the Netherlands rebuilt in miniature, check out the city centre of The Hague, or explore the beach and perhaps even go kitesurfing.

Hamburg is Germany’s second-largest city and home to Europe’s second-largest port, a major attraction with its canals, bridges, historic architecture, and the Museumshafen Oevelgönne. Highlights include the Miniatur Wunderland model railway, a walk through the tunnel beneath the Elbe, and the Speicherstadt district, while nature lovers can enjoy the zoo or the Planten un Blomen park.
