Artemis

Set sail on a voyage through time aboard the Artemis, a magnificent Class A three-masted barque that celebrates its centennial in 2026. Originally launched in 1926 as a rugged Norwegian whaler, this 59-meter vessel has been masterfully restored into one of the most charming and authentic tall ships available for charter in Northern Europe. Whether you are navigating the historic waters of the Baltic or participating in the world-renowned Tall Ships Races, the Artemis offers a unique blend of maritime tradition and modern comfort. Guests on board can experience the thrill of traditional sailing with over 1,000 square meters of canvas overhead, supported by an expert crew of six professional sailors. Unlike typical training vessels, the Artemis caters to the modern traveler with 16 private timber-lined cabins, each featuring en-suite bathrooms and central heating. The ship’s large salon and stylish bar area provide the perfect setting for high-end catering and social gatherings, while the expansive teak decks offer unrivaled views of the open sea. With a rich history that includes service as a WWII minesweeper and an international freighter, every timber of the Artemis tells a story. Book your place on this historic barque for an unforgettable sailing holiday or an exclusive corporate event and become part of a maritime legacy that has spanned a hundred years.

Concerns we know only too well
