— SAILING VOYAGE FROM PORT BLANC TO AMSTERDAM —

Come aboard the Morgenster and experience a special sailing voyage from Port Blanc in Brittany to Amsterdam. This voyage combines coastal sailing, open sea, the English Channel, the North Sea and life aboard a traditional tall ship.

From the French Atlantic coast, the trip heads northward. Depending on wind, weather and tides, longer sea passages, watch-keeping and possible harbour stops may become part of the voyage. The destination is Amsterdam – a beautiful contrast to the peaceful start on the Breton coast.

This voyage is ideal for anyone who wants not just to come along, but to truly become part of life on board.

— WHY THIS VOYAGE IS SPECIAL —

• 7-day sailing voyage from France to the Netherlands
• Route from Port Blanc to Amsterdam
• English Channel, North Sea and possible harbour stops
• Active sailing on a square-rigged tall ship
• Watch-keeping possible when sailing day and night
• No sailing experience required
• Optional opportunity to climb the masts
• Full board, coffee, tea and bed linen included
• Ideal for beginners with a sense of adventure and for experienced sailors

— ACTIVE SAILING ABOARD THE MORGENSTER —

Aboard the Morgenster you're not simply a passenger. If you wish, you help set and trim the sails, handle lines, take the helm or observe navigation.

The crew will explain everything step by step. You need no sailing experience, but you should be open to life on board. Especially on a longer passage, a special rhythm quickly develops between sailing, meals, rest periods, conversations and shared tasks.

When the Morgenster sails day and night, the crew works in watches. You'll then experience especially intensely what it's like to sail a tall ship across the sea together with crew and fellow voyagers.

— ROUTE WITH A FLEXIBLE CHARACTER —

The precise route will be determined underway by wind, weather, tides and safety. Sometimes there'll be longer periods of continuous sailing, sometimes there'll be room for a harbour stop or an evening ashore.

It's precisely this mix that gives the voyage its appeal: you know where you start and where you arrive, but the way there remains real sailing.

From Port Blanc the route follows the European coast towards the English Channel and continues across the North Sea to Amsterdam. Along the way you'll experience different sea areas, changing conditions and the character of a genuine voyage under sail.
