Departing on specific dates in June, July and August save from £190pp and learn to sail in the calm waters of Lofoten islands with adventure sailing experts Rubicon 3.
With an expanded choice of departures this summer to the Unesco World Heritage listed archipelago. Mix day sailing in its sheltered waters with hiking in the hills for stunning panoramas and possibly catching fresh fish for on shore BBQ in one of the world’s most spectacular locations.
The holiday is based aboard one of Rubicon 3’s fleet of 60ft clipper expedition yachts. On each voyage there is a real emphasis both on learning to sail and being able to head ashore to explore a new location each day.
Participants come together as a maximum ‘crew’ of eight people, with 90% joining as solos in an incredibly social environment. No previous sailing experience is necessary and under the expert guidance of a skipper and a mate, they learn a full range of skills from navigating, helming and sail trimming, right through to how to pick the perfect anchorage. It’s an exciting, hands on environment that attracts people from all over the world.
A two-week sailing holiday exploring the calm, clear waters of the Lofoten Islands of northern Norway costs from £1,899 per person (1-13 June 2020). Cost includes accommodation and food on board the yacht, foul weather and safety equipment on board, use of RIB and kayak, plus expert sailing instruction throughout. It excludes travel to and from the start of the holiday.
