14.-17.11.2025 Arctic Sailing

When the other ships dock for the winter, Svanhild heads towards the archipelago!

Welcome on board and to explore the beautiful and quiet archipelago!

The route plan will shape during the trip, depending on the weather. The days are spent hiking in the archipelago and sailing while Svanhild's crew guides the guests to the secrets of sailing. So you don't need previous sailing experience to participate.

In the evenings, we go ashore in the natural harbor, take a sauna and enjoy a delicious dinner in the ship's salon. The ship's comfortable cabins guarantee sweet dreams and our chef will provide you with abundant meals throughout the journey.

In addition to all this, meteorologist Miina Manninen will join the sailing to talk about weather phenomena and how they form. During the trip, you will also get to hear amazing stories about winter navigation in the Arctic seas, where the ship's crew has sailed and conducted research.

Departure: Friday 14.11. at 4 pm from Halkolaituri, Helsinki (you can arrive to the ship at 3:30 pm)
Return: Monday 17.11. about at 4 pm to Halkolaituri, Helsinki
