School voyage charters

For your next school camp, you can charter STS Leeuwin II for a voyage! Spending a week at sea will challenge students to test their personal limits and try new things. Students will develop their teamwork and communication skills, as well as build resilience and confidence.

A Leeuwin voyage is a week at sea without screens, smart phones and social media. It’s the perfect opportunity for students to witness the vastness of nature and really get to know their peers and themselves.

Note: students must be aged 14+
