Windjammers follow the winds and anchor in small harbors off coastal islands. Although all vessels are equipped with modern navigation equipment and radios, windjammers are powered by the wind. You don't have to navigate, rig the masts, or swab the decks, but you can help if you want to!
Who should go on a windjammer? Don't expect the comforts of Cunard, but do expect camaraderie, a reasonably-priced vacation, and the ability to get to ports smaller than the large cruise ships can go to. Also, don't look for deck chairs, but instead just sit anywhere you find a spot, even if it's on the deck itself. It's all part of the windjammer experience. Cabins are small, and headroom is often lower than usual, but you can't expect a lot of room on normal cruise ships, either! Definitely pack light, though!
So, what is there? The allure that has drawn sailors and explorers for centuries--the feel of the salt spray, the stars at night, the thrill of being under full sail, the friendliness of being in a small group of only 25 to 40, and the allure of sailing 19th-century style.
