Ahoy there me hearties! Splice the main brace, shiver me timbers and other such nautical nonsense... there'll be none of that on this experience, offering an introduction to sailing in a friendly and informal atmosphere. It's great fun - exhilarating and relaxing at the same time, and the best way to take in the beauty and freedom of the open sea. Your experience begins with a safety briefing, then your Yachtmaster skipper will introduce you to the basics of sailing. In no time at all you'll be out at sea, sailing on open water in the evening light. If you're feeling energetic you can put theory into practice and take an active part in crewing, but if you'd rather you can just sit back in the secure cockpit and enjoy the evening. After a couple of hours on the water, (depending on the booking made) you may be offered a glass of chilled white wine as you sail back into port, or to join the crew for a drink afterwards locally. All in all a very civilised approach to a wonderful pastime! Click Here for More Details...

Here’s a fantastic opportunity to sail on board a tall ship and to experience life on board one of these magnificent ships. The term’Tall Ship’ is an all-embracing name given to any traditionally rigged sailing vessel. It covers a wide variety of vessels from a small cutter with one mast to a fully rigged ship with three or more masts. Location: Portsmouth (South) Click Here for More Details...

For a truly stunning day at sea you can do no better than a day's sailing aboard a rigged tall ship. These magnificent and luxurious craft, J R Tolkien (two-mast topsail schooner) and Artemis (three-mast barque), have masts over 30 metres high and are perfect for a day of traditional sailing. You'll begin with refreshments and a safety briefing from your experienced crew, before sailing out onto the Solent. If you want to enjoy some hands-on activity, then there's always a job to do on board, from raising the sails to helming the ship, and the friendly crew will show you how it's done. If you'd rather, you can relax on deck and chat to the crew about the sailing life. If you're feeling very brave, you may even get to climb the mast to the crows nest and keep watch for pirates (or maybe just admire the view) - but you'll need a good head for heights. A buffet lunch and afternoon tea will be served on board during the day. Click Here for More Details...
