From Copenhagen through the Kattegat and Skagerrak across the North Sea to IJmuiden
Six nights under sail from Copenhagen back through the Kattegat and Skagerrak across the North Sea to IJmuiden. An active passage where you sail rather than watch: watch duty, taking the helm and setting the square sails are as much a part of it as the wide view across the North Sea. Between Danish waters and the Dutch coast you experience the rhythm of a real sailing voyage – the journey is the destination.

How the route could go:

IJmuiden · Disembarkation
This Dutch port at the entrance to the North Sea Canal serves as the maritime gateway to Amsterdam, around 25 kilometres inland. The IJmuiden lock complex is one of the largest in the world.
