A unique sailing holiday

Adventurous sailing holiday on board

At Noordvaarder sailing trips you can choose from two ships: the Victoria S. and the Noordvaarder. The Noordvaarder is a beautiful clipper with room for 26 guests during a sailing holiday. The Victoria S. is a Stevenaak with room for 24 guests during a sailing holiday. Both ships have a unique and personal history and character. You can click here to read more about the history of our sailing ships, but you will only really experience the character when you are on board.

Falling dry while sailing

During the sailing holiday we will (if the weather permits) also dry out. This is a unique experience! When the tide comes in, the seawater slowly drains. The ship sinks to the bottom of the Wadden Sea! When the water is gone, we disembark and explore the bottom of the sea. We see all kinds of sea animals crawling on the bottom and we select the most beautiful sea shells. Once the tide starts to rise again, we step on board again. When there is enough water under the ship again, we hoist the sails together and go on to the next adventure!
