Caribbean Sea - Star Clipper and Royal Clipper in the Caribbean Sea


Royal Clipper

















My sailing trips with the Star Clippers and the Royal Clipper in the Caribbean Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, across the Atlantic and the Indian Ocean.

For some time I have been waiting for the first trip with the Star Clippers, and since then I have traveled several times with the Star Clippers and the Royal Clipper.
Several times in the Caribbean Sea, once in the Mediterranean Sea, once across the Atlantic and once from Egypt to Goa.
Every time it was a great adventure.
I enjoy the morning hours when there is practically nobody on deck and you can get the feeling to make the trip just by yourself. Sometimes you meet people who had the same idea to get up early and you can have wonderful conversations with the first cup of coffee, tea or chocolate.
Every day there is something new, a new island, a new report. And there are also so many excursions which you can enjoy.
For me something really special is to lie down on a lounge chair on deck looking to the sails and - at the same time – looking on to the sky and stars which – you get the feeling - are shaking to one side and back. Of course this is very pleasent in the Caribbean Sea with air temperatures at night still from 25 to 30°C.
During the day I enjoy very much “to leave the ship while sailing”, that means to leave the ship at the bow and lying down in the net in front of the ship where you can have the feeling of flying over the water.
