Greenock (GB) - Greenock (GB)

11 May - 13 May 2018

Weekend Sailing. On this May weekend the Maybe will take you on an exploration of the Scottish coastline. You can take your turn on the helm, help to hoist the sails and improve your sailing knowledge. Or sit back, relax and soak up the Scottish sunshine! You will board and disembark in Greenock, near Glasgow, but the exact route will depend on wind and weather conditions. No sailing experience needed – in fact, this is a perfect trip for first-timers! For Windseekers of all ages, minimum age 15 years.

Ports

Greenock is a small port town west of Glasgow in south-west Scotland. The town is surrounded by a plethora of walking and hiking routes into the scenic Inverclyde region - climb the nearby hills to discover views of the highlands or see huges lochs (Scottish fjords) open out into the Clyde estuary . A pleasant, quiet stop before heading north to the more rugged islands off Scotland's west coast.
