Polar voyages on the M/V Noorderlicht

M/V Noorderlicht

The Noorderlicht was originally built in 1910 in Germany as a three-masted schooner, sailing the Baltic for most of her life. The ship was re-rigged and re-fitted in 1991 and is now a two-masted schooner, perfect for a unique Arctic adventure. The Noorderlicht carries only 20 passengers on an informal and friendly cruise in the company of adventurous travellers and experienced and welcoming crew; get involved with sailing duties, too!
