YOUR SAILING AREA
The Baltic Sea
This trip is a great way to get a taste of seafaring adventure: at this time of the year, only low waves and moderate wind speeds are to be expected – perfect for good sailing on Eye of the Wind. Plenty of fresh sea air, on-board comfort, delicious food from our excellent onboard kitchen, genuine traditional seamanship and the typical Swedish tranquillity onshore.
Lively harbours or lonely bays, open sea or wooded shores: scenic diversity is guaranteed and the next idyllic anchorage is never far away. Scandinavia’s legendary past comes to life with the archipelago nestled in front of the mainland. Think fairy tale castles shrouded by myth and legend mixed with the very best of Scandinavian hospitality.
.
Make the most of your time onshore by taking a tour through the historic city centre of Rostock. There you will find parts of the city wall with its fortification towers, as well as the 13th-century town hall and monastery churches with hidden gardens. The whole appearance of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania’s largest city is dominated by Gothic brick buildings from the Hanseatic era. You can also take an evening stroll past the historic storehouses on the banks of the Warnow river and through the picturesque town and the Museum Harbour.
From here you will sail to discover the magical Danish island of Møn. Best known for its sweeping stretch of white chalk cliffs, Møns Klint, the island is crowned by deep-green forest, surrounded by beautiful beaches and small secret coves.
Finish in the Danish capital of Copenhagen full of culture and heritage, the 17th century street of Nyhavn is the most colourful street in the city of Copenhagen with architectural delights where cafes line the canal replete with old wooden sailing ships.
After receiving safety instructions and an introduction to sailing from the ship’s crew, you will soon be able to take part in sailing yourself. Hands-on assistance on deck is always voluntary, so if you want, you can just relax and enjoy watching the sailing manoeuvres and the traditional seamanship in action every day.
LIFE ON BOARD
The crew will aim to give you time to explore the islands as you wish, finding harbours to berth at and secluded bays to anchor in.
There is no fixed itinerary for your sailing holiday, Eye of the Wind will need to sail where the wind and weather take her. The Skipper will have a better idea of the holiday plan as you board and will give a briefing on your first evening. Rest assured where ever you sail in this beautiful part of the world you won’t be disappointed and the skipper is always happy to take guest wishes into consideration.
