TOUR TYPE
S/S Solrik, launched in 1929, is a rare majestic wooden sail-ship streamlined for an adventurous sail through the archipelago of Southern Norway. Embark in the nostalgic town of Grimstad known for their prolific boatbuilding history and set out on a scenic coastal expedition led by a professional crew.
Enjoy the charm of distinct wooden coastal architecture and feel the spray of salty air invigorate your body and soul. Pick up a word or two from the sailing jargon and delight in the sheer power and beauty of the vessel reminiscent of the Golden Age of Sail. Finally, and perhaps regretfully you will swap to modern transportation back to the pier. Alternatively, you may embark in Kristiansand or Arendal and enjoy a local seafood feast while onboard.
Aye Aye, Captain!
