All manual work, true seafaring nostalgia

“Set sail!” – As soon as the captain of the Sea Cloud ii orders the crew to climb the rigging, our guests instantly crane their necks.

This allows our guests to enjoy the romantic tall ship experience in refined exclusivity. Our 29 de luxe outside cabins, 16 junior suites and two owner suites accommo- date a maximum of 94 guests on this voyage of relaxation.
