Join Blue Clipper in Portimao on February 21st 2021 for an unforgettable 20 day mile building tall ship voyage that will see you travel from Portugal to the United Kingdom. You'll be getting hands on with setting the sails, steering the ship, keeping watch and more throughout your trip and the best part is that no experience is required in order to join - you'll be taught everything you need to know before you need to know it at every stage throughout the journey.

Your sail training adventure will feature a mix of Inshore & Coastal, Ocean Crossing and Ocean Passage sailing and you'll be going via Camarinhas in Portugal. Ocean crossings under traditional sail are far from easy. Ocean passages can bring conditions fit for only the boldest adventurers seeking the ultimate challenge.

If you simply wish to sail the coast of Portugal, you can book the first leg of this voyage at https://tallshipsnetwork.com/trips/5726/. Alternately, you can book the Biscay crossing to the UK at https://tallshipsnetwork.com/trips/5726/.

Your experience aboard this beautiful schooner will end in Liverpool where you'll disembark on March 14th. Please note you need to be aged between 18 and 100 in order to join. The primary language spoken onboard will be English.

 You must be able to climb a 6ft (2m) ladder
You must be physically fit enough to take part in sailing activities
You must comply with all safety regulations during your trip

Travel Insurance Is required. Once you have booked and paid for your voyage please ensure that you have appropriate travel insurance.

Maybe Sailing Vessels are covered by third party liability insurance for serious injury or loss of life, but they strongly advise you to take out travel insurance as soon as you book your holiday. Make sure you find travel insurance that gives you financial protection if you must cancel or curtail your holiday, cover loss or damage to baggage, or incur any additional medical or transport costs. If you have your own annual travel insurance or a cover with your credit or debit card, please check your own policy carefully to make sure it covers sailing/ cruising/ yachting for sailing more than 12 miles from shore.

Topsail Insurance offer policies that are tailor-made for tall ship holidays, whether pilot cutter, ketch, lugger or tall ship, and have no restrictions as to how far offshore you can sail, including Antarctica.
