Description

Enjoy 3 hours 45 minutes sailing aboard a luxury catamaran, with this sailing half day trip on the sailing on the East Coast of Scotland. A memorable experience for those looking to try something different or for anyone who fancies a taste of life on-board an amazing catamaran.
Meet your RYA Yachtmaster who’ll introduce you to the catamaran and 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.
