We now offer a unique opportunity to sail for free on board the Götheborg during the first six weeks of this year’s sailing adventure. Sign on in Barcelona mid-March and sign off in the Brittany/Normandie area right at the end of April. We promise a great sailing adventure in the Mediterranean, through the Straits of Gibraltar, along the coast of Portugal and across the Bay of Biscay. This is a bucket list sailing adventure that you don’t want to miss!

The ship will leave Barcelona 20 March 2023, but deckhands will sign on already 17 March 2023. The first stopover will be beautiful Sète in the south of France, also known as “Venice of the Languedoc” for its network of canals. After a few days in Sète, the ship heads south again, now making its way towards the Straits of Gibraltar. Before sailing through the Straits of Gibraltar, and heading towards the Bay of Biscay, the ship will make one more portstop (where is still to be announed). Sign off will be 30 April 2023 somewhere in the area around the western tip of France (also still to be announced).
During all the four portstops included in this sailing period, we will have open ship, inviting visitors on board. As usual, you as a deckhand will be involved in station guiding during open ship.
We now offer a select number of people the unique opportunity to sail for free on board the Götheborg, when you sign up for the full first six weeks of this year’s sailing adventure.
The reasons why we offer this sailing period for free are threefold.
If you were ever to head out on a great adventure, this is your chance!
Sign on in Barcelona: 17 March 2023

Join us on a guided tour from the city centre to the ship! We begin at Gustav Adolfs Square, where you will hear the story of Gothenburg’s founding. From there, we take a short walk, following the traces of the Swedish East India Company. Why did they travel to China? Who sailed on board, and what happened when the ships returned with their valuable cargoes?
