On Star Clippers you will find that there are no rigid schedule, and you won’t be overwhelmed by the sense that there’s not enough time. Up on deck, watch the sun drop slowly into the deep blue ocean, as seagulls circle the darkening sky. In the tropical bar, the bartender mixes a shaker full of delicious drinks, as guests happily chat about their day ashore. Is there anything more peaceful than this?

We invite local performers onboard to entertain our guests with an authentic taste of local music and arts. Rather than enduring another Las Vegas-style show, enjoy the friendliness of fellow shipmates while a live band encourages you to get on your feet and dance.

The Captain’s daily briefing on deck is wonderfully informative and a chance to hear some great story-telling as well.  Onboard activities like knot tying and navigation classes have evolved from Star Clippers’ sailing tradition and offer a unique hands-on experience.

Adventurous sorts will love climbing the mast to the crow’s nest or relaxing on the bowsprit netting with the open sea beneath. In fact, our guests tell us that it’s the laid-back, casual ambience of Star Clippers that makes a cruise with us all the more enjoyable.
