A 3-hour tall ship adventure on STS Leeuwin II is an experience you and your family will cherish for a long time. Built in Western Australia in the style of an 1850’s three-masted barquentine, STS Leeuwin II is a Western Australian icon and a credit to her architect (Len Randall) and the many organisations who contributed to her construction and who have maintained her ever since.
Launched in 1986, STS Leeuwin II was purpose built for sail training. Over 40,000 young people have experienced the thrill and adventure of life at sea on Australia’s largest sail training tall ship. You can get a taste of an ocean going adventure on board this magnificent steel ship next summer.
On a day sail, you’ll be encouraged to haul on the lines to help set the sails, steer the ship under the watchful eye of the Captain and maybe even don a harness and get into the rigging – but if not, feel the wind on your face and keep an eye out for local marine life.
No sailing experience is required.
What to expect:
- A 4 hour sail, departing from and returning to B Shed, Victoria Quay, Fremantle
- Light refreshments, tea and coffee on-board
- A tour of the ship
- Weather permitting, an opportunity to climb on the bow-sprit or climb the foremast
- Information about our youth development sail-training programs
Most of all – you get to make memories with your friends and family. Visit our office today for more information or check the scheduled sails below and book now!
We look forward to seeing you on board.
