Leave the Netherlands behind and set sail on an unforgettable voyage aboard the Tall Ship Morgenster. This eight-day adventure from Den Helder to Fowey has become a favourite among adventurous sailors, combining challenging offshore passages with the timeless beauty of traditional square rigged sailing.

From the historic naval harbour of Den Helder, we’ll head southwest across the North Sea before passing through the busy Dover Strait and entering the English Channel. Every day brings new challenges and unforgettable moments. Hoist sails, take the helm, stand watch alongside the professional crew, or climb the rigging to enjoy breathtaking views over the open sea. No sailing experience is required, only curiosity and a sense of adventure.

As we sail further west, the coastline becomes increasingly dramatic before arriving in the picturesque harbour of Fowey, one of Cornwall’s most charming historic ports.
