Cruise in Company

Between 18 and 26 July 2023, eleven fantastic Guest Harbours await the arrival of Tall ships and Small ships during the Cruise in Company event.

A Cruise in Company is not a competitive event, but instead offers friendship and shared experiences for crews and communities to enjoy together.

Each ship that joins the Cruise in Company leg, decides what guest harbours they choose to visit during the event. You can join one of the ships for this awesomely beautiful adventure!
