From AUD $4,030

Description

This eastbound Atlantic crossing aboard Royal Clipper sails from Bridgetown to Lisbon in a classic tall-ship tradition, trading Caribbean warmth for the open ocean and eventual European landfall. Days at sea unfold under full sail, with time to enjoy deck life, onboard amenities, and the rhythm of long-distance sailing. A mid-Atlantic call in the Azores adds historic depth and lush volcanic scenery before the voyage concludes along the Tagus River in Lisbon, one of Europe’s most storied capitals.

Itinerary



Day 1 - Day 1 Bridgetown, Barbados
 On the wild and rugged east coast of Barbados, the isolated beaches are the colour of sunrise, the red sands having blown all the way across the Atlantic from the Sahara. The easternmost island of the Windwards, and indeed, of the entire Caribbean, reaches out to Africa and the Old World, as if not quite part of the New. Bridgetown, Barbados, is an interesting town full of contrasts. George Washington actually slept here! Trafalgar Square reminds you that the laidback, rum- and fun-loving island's British influenced heritage includes revered traditions like cricket and high tea.
Day 2 - Days 2 - 11 At Sea
 Each Star Clippers ship offers a traditional and elegant way to see the world. Feel the wind fill the sails and gently carry you from one gorgeous destination to the next. During your time on board, you can choose to relax on a sun lounger or cool off in one of the pools on the top deck, while more adventurous passengers may enjoy the opportunity to climb the rigging or even have a go at steering the ship. Alternatively, you can wander the interior areas of the ship and discover relaxing lounges, a revitalising spa (Royal Clipper only) and a peaceful library.
Day 3 - Day 12 Ponta Delgada - Azores, Portugal
 The Azores have long played host to transatlantic yachtsmen, traders and explorers. It stands on the pretty green and fertile island of Sao Miguel. 16th and 17th century economic growth saw the construction of lavish palaces and churches, many still surviving.

Day 5 - Day 17 Lisbon, Portugal
 The capital of Portugal since its conquest from the Moors in 1147, Lisbon is a legendary city with over 20 centuries of history. Spreading out along the right bank of the Tagus, its downtown, the Baixa, is located in the 18th-century area around Rossio. The Alfama, one of the oldest quarters in Lisboa, still retains much of its original layout since it largely survived the earthquake of 1755.
