* NEW PRICES * Tall Ships Races 2018, Race 2. This is the last chance to join this year’s Tall Ships Races, in the final race from Norway to the Netherlands. You will sail across the North Sea and become familiar with the life on board; you will join in all the activities such as setting the sails, steering or navigating; and even though there are no square sails, you can climb aloft if you want to! After an exciting race you will join the activities in port, including the final Awards Ceremony, Crew Parade, competitions and more. Open for Windseekers of all ages, minimum age 15 years.
Stavanger is a modern port, but retains a small historic district. The lovely old harbour is a favourite stopover for big cruiseships that tower over the buildings. The city has a lively cultural scene, and is surrounded by numerous outdoor destinations well worth a visit. Explore the narrow, rocky Lysefjord and the mountains Preikestolen and Kjerag, or relax on Jæren's beaches. Make sure to bring hiking boots, as the mountains stand over 1000 meters tall.
Harlingen is a trade and fishing port in Friesland, the Netherlands. The town itself is over a thousand years old, and you’ll find several historic streets in the old city centre. Its small size makes it easy to explore the town on foot. In 2014 Harlingen was a port of call for the Tall Ships Races. The town operates ferry lines to the Frisian Islands, a unique nature reserve with populations of seals, birds, and other wildlife. With its ‘gezellige’ pubs the town is a great place for a stopover.
