Join the crew of a majestic tall ship and set sail on a six-hour trip off Dorset's Jurassic Coast.
Sailing Experience Days: Ahoy there, sailor! Welcome aboard the tall ship Gaff Cutter. We hope you’ve found your sea legs, ‘cause it’s time for a swashbuckling six-hour adventure off Dorset’s scenic Jurassic Coast.
Trips depart from Portland Marina and head east towards Weymouth Bay, the iconic Durdle Door, Lulworth Cove, Kimmeridge Bay and Worbarrow Bay. Built by the Dutch in 1930 and originally used to transport cargo between Amsterdam and its North Sea neighbours, Gaff Cutter is an impressive steel-hulled tall ship – the perfect vessel for a day’s fun on the open water! During the voyage, you’ll be encouraged to try your hands at sailing – learning the ropes, so to speak, as you weigh anchor, hoist the main sail and perhaps even take the helm. Then again, if you’d prefer to sit back and enjoy the ride, your experienced skipper and crew will happily take over duties on deck. Together, you’ll glide over the waves before anchoring at a unique picnic spot – so don’t forget to bring a packed lunch!
