Full description
If you are looking for an unforgettable adventure on the Trieste coast, this is the excursion you have been waiting for!
Set sail with us from Monfalcone aboard the Roberta III, a vintage sailing ship dating back to 1899, for a half-day tour and relive the charms of the Habsburg navy of the Upper Adriatic.
Proceed at the slow pace of sailing past majestic cli ffs and rocks typical of the Karst terrain, immerse yourself in the Doberdò and Pietrarossa Lakes Nature Reserve, and enjoy an aperitif with local wines and products.
If you wish, you can also participate in sailing manoeuvres and learn more about the fascinating world of sailing.
What we will do
The appointment is in Monfalcone (GO), at the time selected during the booking process. Here I will be waiting for you on board the Roberta III, a historic 16-metre sailing ship whose hull has been plying the Mediterranean Sea for over a century.
Once everyone is seated on board, we will cast off our moorings and sail towards the small port of Duino, admiring the beautiful cliffs and natural beauty of the Doberdò and Pietrarossa Lakes Nature Reserve.
You will enjoy moments of pure relaxation, also tasting wines and local products offered by the crew (tasting of 3 wines with snacks and local products that vary according to seasonality). I will tell you more about this enchanting land and, if you wish, also about sailing.
During the tour you will have the opportunity to participate in sailing manoeuvres: you will be able to hoist the sails and feel the wind pushing the boat, you will be able to manoeuvre the sails and the direction of the hull and bring it up to maximum speed.
It will be an immersive experience that will make you feel part of the crew of an elegant ship of yesteryear.
Finally, we will return to the port of departure after about 4 hours of touring.
