Description
Enjoy a 2.5 hour sail on the Firth of Forth for two people, on-board a luxury catamaran on this sailing taster experience. This introduction to sailing, lets you explore the east coastline of Scotland and try a taste of life on-board a catamaran. Sit back and relax or if you would like a more “hands-on” experience, the skipper will let you take the helm and learn the “ropes” as you sail down the Forth.
Meet your RYA Yachtmaster, who will introduce you to the catamaran, as you relax and enjoy tea or coffee before setting sail. As you leave the harbour, you’ll pass under the world-famous Forth Rail Bridge. Built in the 1890s, the bridge is considered one of the engineering wonders of the world.
Keep an eye out for the local seals and magnificent views of the Edinburgh skyline as you cruise around Inchgarvie Island, before making your way back to Port Edgar Marina, with a detour under the new Queensferry Crossing.
