* FULLY BOOKED * Tall Ships Races 2018: Race 2 Join the Wylde Swan for the second race of the Tall Ships Races. Sail out of Stavanger in the Parade of Sails and embark on an exciting race between A-class vessels from many different countries. After crossing the finish line you will arrive in Harlingen where you will have the chance to participate in many port activities – and the prize giving ceremony. Take part in Crew Parade and Crew Party to meet sailors from different vessels and exchange your experiences. Open for all Windseekers, 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.
