Besides the annual week-long voyages around the UK and the six-monthly school trip with School at Sea to the Caribbean, Tallship Thalassa makes time for major (inter)national nautical events. 

Annual events in Germany include Kieler Woche, Hafengeburtstag Hamburg and Hansesail in Rostock. At major events (every four to five years) such as Armada du Siècle (Rouen, France) and Fêtes Maritimes internationales (Brest, France), Thalassa was also repeatedly present. In our own country, Thalassa could be seen at Sail Amsterdam, Sail Harlingen and DelfSail. Where possible, Thalassa always looks for space in her sailing schedule to participate in one or more stages of the Tall Ship Races organised by Sail Training International, an organisation that promotes sailing for and with young people.

Thalassa will call at a number of events in 2024/2025: Fèis Ìle (Islay Whisky Festival), Brest Nautiques Festival, Southampton Boat show, Sail Amsterdam. 

The sea is our home

Step aboard Tallship Thalassa, a seaworthy sailing ship and a safe haven for many. Classically rigged as a barquentine and equipped according to modern safety requirements. A comfortable and versatile ship. 

Thalassa is at home on all seas. She navigates between adventurous whisky sailing trips, mile-makers and nautical events. She carries youngsters during Tall Ships Races, exchange projects and the great ocean crossing with School at Sea. During one-day or multi-day trips Thalassa offers young and old alike the total package for an adventurous holiday trip or successful business meeting. 

Thalassa also organises complete trips for individual passengers (cruises). It is also possible to charter the ship for a group of your own. The authentic ambiance, tasteful saloon and comfortable cabins (each with its own shower and washbasin) bring a unique experience on board. The skilful crew will take the stress off and the excellent cuisine will ensure an unforgettable visit to this impressive ship.

Facilities on board

The decks plus the saloon provide ample dry space for the 140 people the Thalassa may carry during day trips. For receptions and walking dinners, there is room for a larger number of guests. Inside the saloon are another 36 seats and a (whisky) bar. Below deck is the professionally equipped kitchen and dining room with space for 36 people. Adjacent are the 15 double cabins with shower and wash basin.

As a worldwide sailing ship, Thalassa meets all (inter)national safety requirements.
