Autumn is the perfect time to get a taste of sailing: clear, fresh and with the best opportunities for sporty sailing. If you want to experience wind and waves intensively, get actively involved and cover around 270 nautical miles, then come on board the Oban on her trip from Gothenburg to Kiel.

The cruise starts on Friday evening in Gothenburg. After checking in, you will get to know the ship, crew and fellow sailors. You move into your cabin and spend the first night on board – completely relaxed in the harbor.

On Saturday morning it’s time to cast off! The Oban sets sail and nine intensive days lie ahead of you on the Baltic Sea and in the Kattegat. The route leads along the Danish coast, through the islands of the Danish South Sea and finally into the Kiel Fjord. The exact route planning depends on the wind and weather – real sailing adventures included.

On board, you are part of the crew: setting sails, steering, navigating – everything is explained and you can get involved to the best of your ability. The trip is ideal for gaining sailing experience or earning miles for your sailing license. On request, you will receive an official mileage certificate for approx. 270 nautical miles after the trip.

There may also be longer stages or night trips – typical of real life on board. In between, there is always time to relax: enjoy the view, read a book or follow the waves. You should be physically fit enough to get on and off the boat independently due to anchoring and dinghy rides.

Meals are prepared together – fresh, simple and delicious. In the evening, everyone sits in the cozy salon or enjoys a cup of tea on deck before going to their cabins.

On Sunday afternoon of the following week you reach Kiel – full of new impressions, sea air in your head and experiences recorded in the logbook.

An autumn sailing trip from Gothenburg to Kiel that is more than just a vacation: active, relaxing and a step towards greater sailing adventures.

The OBAN is an impressive two-masted schooner with a long tradition. Built in Emden in 1903 for herring fishing in the North Sea, she is one of the few ships of this type still in service today. She has been sailing as a passenger ship since 1984 and was taken over by her current owners Jolan Kanters and Olaf Broekstra in 1999. On board the OBAN, historic seafaring romance is combined with modern comfort. All cabins have been lovingly renovated in recent years and additional sanitary facilities have been created - so you can look forward to a pleasant and relaxed life on board. Jolan and Olaf attach great importance to ensuring that their guests want for nothing, and this is exactly what makes the OBAN the perfect ship for a relaxing sailing vacation. One highlight is the spacious "philosopher's deck" at the stern, which can accommodate up to 20 people - ideal for enjoying the fresh sea air together. In the evening, the cozy ship's saloon invites you to round off the day's sailing in a relaxed atmosphere. The open, well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare culinary delights. For special moments, the foredeck can be transformed into an open-air restaurant, whether for an extensive breakfast or an atmospheric barbecue evening. There are numerous places to sit and relax all over the deck. And best of all, you don't have to worry about the little things - a beer dispenser is available on board and bed linen is already included. Everything is prepared so that you can enjoy your sailing adventure to the full from the very first moment. Jolan and Olaf are looking forward to welcoming you on board the OBAN!
