Star Clipper

Star Clipper is the name of a cruise line operating tall sailing ships. The company operates three vessels: Star Clipper, Star Flyer, and Royal Clipper. These ships are designed to offer a sailing experience reminiscent of the 19th-century clipper ships, combined with modern amenities.

The Star Clipper and Star Flyer are sister ships, each a four-masted barquentine with a capacity for approximately 170 guests. The Royal Clipper, the flagship of the fleet, is a five-masted full-rigged ship and can accommodate around 227 passengers.

Star Clipper cruises typically offer itineraries in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and Southeast Asia. The onboard experience emphasizes sailing traditions, with opportunities for passengers to learn about sailing and participate in raising the sails. Activities often include swimming, snorkeling, and exploring smaller ports of call not accessible to larger cruise ships.

The company is known for its more intimate and less formal atmosphere compared to traditional cruise lines, appealing to travelers seeking a unique and adventurous sailing experience. The ships are registered in Malta.
