Join us aboard the Lady of Avenel for this unique voyage.

This two-masted, Brigantine-rigged tall ship will be your home for the week as we step aboard in the town of Stromness and sail through the islands of Orkney.

The ship will be your base for a voyage of exploration and music with sessions, workshops, sailing and more.
Sail the evocative and historic natural harbour of Scapa Flow; visit the charming village of Pierowall on Westray; watch seals on the rocks at Stronsay.

Gaze up at the cliffs of the West Mainland clad with razorbills and guillemots, sail through Calf Sound - where the Orcadian pirate Gow met his downfall in 1725; past islands mentioned in the Orkneying Saga.

You will learn tunes from the rich Orkney tradition in the bright saloon aboard Lady of Avenel; later, we will walk ashore to a local pub or village hall to play sessions with local musicians and meet the communities. Throughout the trip, we will enjoy locally sourced food, beautifully prepared by our onboard chef.
