Stad Amsterdam:
Göteborg - Kiel

06 October - 08 October 2015

Sailing from Gothenburg to Kiel – Shortly after embarkation we will be heading south leaving the harbor of Gothenburg. This second largest Swedish city after Stockholm is located in the southwest on the beautiful archipelago which is characterized by thousands of small islands, rocks and rough water. After a final glance at the picturesque fishing villages and the typical houses with their famous red roofs we will be crossing the Kattegat and will pass the Danish islands of Anholt and Samso. The cruise will continue and we will be passing the imposing Great Belt Bridge, a suspension bridge of 65 meters height which consists of several parts and has a total length of 18 kilometers. On Thursday, October 8th, the tall ship Clipper Stad Amsterdam will reach the maritime city of Kiel via the Baltic Sea and the Kielerfjord with its impressive length. Open for all ages, minimum age 15 years.
