Yacht Sail Cruise from Hamble to Falmouth – 7 Day
On this distance yacht sailing cruise / trip which starts from Hamble close to Southampton you will have the opportunity to take part in pilotage and navigation if you so wish. You can do as much or as little as you like whilst on board but most people are fully active and wish to learn and develop or refine skills.
You will be able to test your knowledge and sailing skills – as well as having fun! You can be ‘Skipper’ for your log book miles, passage plan and run the boat with the reassurance that our professional Skipper is on hand at all times to oversee and aid when required. All on board will take part in any watch system and running of the boat as active members of the crew. There is a useful 60Nm passage across Lyme Bay if you require this for your Yachtmaster logged miles.

Itinerary Notes:
Poole, A Dorset town with one of the largest natural harbours in UK which also has several islands within including Brownsea Island housing the rare red squirrel population and much other wild life. Mooring available in several marinas including the Town Quay right in the centre of town. Fantastic sandy beaches of Studland Bay provide a popular anchorage spot and if you dinghy ashore some great walks over the chalk hills and around the spectacular cliffs coastline.
Weymouth / Portland Bill. The spectacular Dorset Jurassic Coastline with its undulating white chalk cliffs stretches from Poole to Portland with anchorages at Chapmans cove, Lulworth and Worbarrow Bay. Weymouth town is a real working fishing port / seaside town with mooring either at the town quay or in the marina beyond the lifting bridge. Portland Harbour, once a bustling Naval Base, offers berthing for large cruise ships and sail training opportunities for dinghy sailors and foiling specialists. There is a huge modern Dean & Reddyhoff marina (Olympic host location 2012) and some good nearby pubs overlooking Chesil Beach
Lyme Bay Lyme Bay is the large expanse of water between Portland Bill and Devon with spectacular red coloured sandstone making up the fossil rich Jurassic Coastline. If there is a good amount of North in the wind then it makes it a lot easier and quicker to cross as a westerly is on the nose. Southerly is okay but with larger wave height. Weymouth – Salcombe 60Nm
Brixham is a stunningly beautiful harbourside town on South Devon’s beautiful English Riviera. Life here has always centred around the harbour, where heritage trawlers jostle for space with day boats heading out to sea for the day’s catch, bringing it home daily to Brixham’s famous Fish Market. Here, in the heart of England’s Seafood Coast, the freshest fish and most delicious seafood can be enjoyed. Good shelter from SW winds in the MDL marina
Salcombe On the mouth of the Kingsbridge Estuary in Devon. Swinging moorings are available for this picturesque location but very limited walk-ashore possibilities. Either dinghy ashore or make sure the harbour taxi is running!
Dartmouth situated on the mouth of the River Dart has a long history with the Royal Navy and The Britannia Royal Naval College located on the hill overlooking the town has been training Officers since 1863. Stunning coastline and scenery with good history and a range of coastal walks. A variety of berthing options with some walk-ashore available. Darthaven Marina is on the Eastern bank.
Plymouth at the heart of the West Country. Heaps of yachts and a variety of marinas with plenty of shelter and the scenery is spectacular, with stunning coastline cliffs and some cracking rivers and estuaries to explore.
Falmouth is the world’s third largest natural harbour with deep water. Is has a host of marinas, mooring areas and great shelter. Carrick Roads is an area of water which extends from the entrance of Falmouth Bay right up the river Fal to Truro. Many boats use it as a staging post before departing for the Scillies. This will be the disembarkation port for this trip.
