Set sail aboard this historic tall ship on an unforgettable trip from Plymouth to A Coruña, crossing the legendary Bay of Biscay. Departing from Plymouth Sound—one of the world’s finest natural harbours—you’ll follow a route shaped by centuries of maritime history, once sailed by explorers, merchant vessels, and naval fleets. Before boarding, you may wish to visit the acclaimed National Marine Aquarium or soak up the region’s rich nautical heritage, reflected even in local traditions such as the iconic Cornish pasty once carried to sea by fishermen and miners alike.
As we venture across the Bay of Biscay, renowned among sailors for its ever-changing moods and rewarding offshore passages, guests are invited to become part of the sailing experience. Help raise and trim the sails, take the helm, and feel the response of a 68-metre schooner beneath your hands. Join knot-tying workshops, exchange stories with fellow travellers, and experience the unique camaraderie that develops during life at sea. Weather permitting, you may climb the mast for sweeping ocean views or unwind on the bowsprit while the Atlantic rolls beneath you. Evenings are best enjoyed on deck with a drink in hand as the sun disappears beyond the horizon.
Our voyage ends in A Coruña, a historic Galician port deeply connected to the Atlantic. Here, maritime traditions remain part of everyday life—from lively fish markets to the ancient Tower of Hercules, the world’s oldest functioning Roman lighthouse. Traditional Galician music and celebrated seafood cuisine reveal a culture shaped by generations of ocean trade and seafaring exchange.
This journey aboard the majestic tall ship combines authentic offshore sailing with the discovery of two proud maritime regions linked by the Atlantic Ocean.
