In 2025 a beautiful tall ship will embark on a four-phase expedition in the Arctic. This is the third phase from Greenland to Iceland. You can choose to join any individual leg or sign up for the whole expedition.

For PHASE THREE, the expedition sails south, out of King Oscar Fjord and into Scoresby Sound, Northeast Greenland; out of there the world’s largest National Park and into the world’s largest fjord system, before returning to Iceland.

EXPEDITION HIGHLIGHTS

• Traverse the remote coast of Northeast Greenland
• Get a taste of the golden age of exploration on a traditionally rigged, wooden sailing vessel
• Explore two different fjord systems in Northeast Greenland
• Visit some of the most remote, ice-free fjords in East Greenland
• Visit the world’s largest National Park (The Northeast Greenland National Park)
• Visit the world’s largest fjord system
• Participate in an active scientific programme which seeks to collect data about the Arctic (entirely voluntary)
• Undertake the expedition with a small ground of 12 amazing people from all over.
• Enjoy stunning Arctic vistas and landscapes with the trappings of civilization
• Pursue an intentional, knowledge-oriented expedition experience with respect to the destination
• Experienced crew and Expedition Leader that are at least as excited to be there as you (!)
• Eat well, drink well and live well whilst traversing the most remote parts of the Arctic.

Citizen Science

A scientific programme will run on board this expedition, owing to the remoteness of the locations we will be travelling in and the general lack of data about the Arctic. The purpose of this programme is to shed light on the continuing influence of the changing climate on the Polar Regions.

In Practice, this means that the crew will be collecting data at regular intervals throughout the expedition relating to water temperature at, the presence of microplastics (if any), salinity and acidity levels as well as keeping a rigorous log on sighted wildlife along the way.

At the end of the expedition, all the data will be collated into a report which will be disseminated to Scientific databases which can be used to aid in further research about the Arctic.

All passengers are invited to participate in this ongoing programme on board and involve themselves. It must be said that there is no obligation at all, and participation is entirely voluntary.

Dates: Expedition A:  28 August – Sept 04  2025 / Expedition B:  Sept 04-11  2025 /  Expedition C: Sept 11-21 2025 (includes 3 day return sail to Iceland)

With 14 days and 13 nights at our disposal, we really have a strong time budget for this expedition; and we need it, because we have a lot of amazing stuff to see! Broadly speaking, the expedition will leave Mestersvig, in King Oscar Fjord, sail past Flemingfjord and Carlsberg Fjord, around the suggest coast of Liverpool Land which faces the Denmark Strait, going into Scoresby Sund (originally called Scoresby’s Sound) and follow a circuit of Milne Land, the largest island in Scoresby Sound. Along the way, we will experience dramatic landscapes, active glaciers and huge icebergs that will dwarf even our larger vessel, S/V Linden. After traversing Øfjord, Rødefjord, Fønfjord and the Volquart Boons, we will begin our return sail to Reykjavik, Iceland, which we expect to take 3 days.
