Feture image for Between the Highlands and Ireland Sailing Cruise

This voyage follows the dramatic coastlines of Scotland and Ireland, linking historic cities with remote island landscapes shaped by wind, sea, and legend. Departing from Edinburgh, the route explores the archaeological heritage of Orkney, the raw beauty of the Outer Hebrides, and the Highlands’ deep connections to clan history and maritime life. Scenic passages through narrow sounds and island channels lead to Northern Ireland’s capital before the journey concludes in Dublin, where centuries of culture, trade, and storytelling converge at the edge of the Irish Sea.

Category E: Superior cabins, outside. From

£4875 GBP pp

These outside cabins on both sides of the cabin deck are the epitome of cosiness on board the SEA CLOUD SPIRIT. This is where you can retreat, switch off and relax while enjoying the unique luxurious ambience for which our private yachts are famous. Here too, tradition and the future of travel on board a modern tall ship meets in the elegant interior.

Category D: De luxe cabins, outside. From

£5765 GBP pp

The large portholes give our De-Luxe outside cabins on the cabin deck a special maritime flair. Together with their elegant yacht ambience, these living spaces emphasise the certainty of being on an extraordinary journey with an extraordinary ship. Precious materials and the stylish design give the spacious cabins a cosy atmosphere. And of course this cabin category is also characterised by the combination of the long SEA CLOUD tradition with the modern interpretation of classic elegance.

Category F: Superior single cabins, outside. From

£6059 GBP pp

The two cabins in this category are the ideal home for single travellers who want to enjoy the special comfort of the SEA CLOUD SPIRIT. In a slightly smaller space, they offer the same luxury and comfort as the other double cabins on the cabin deck.

Category C: De luxe lido cabins, outside. From

£6505 GBP pp

The large outside cabins of this category on the lidodeck combine the comfort and personal atmosphere of a five-star hotel room with the maritime, elegant cosiness that only the SEA CLOUD SPIRIT offers. The high panoramic windows can be opened - you can therefore immediately feel the special spirit of a sea voyage aboard the SEA CLOUD SPIRIT in your cabin. Of course, these panoramic windows also offer a wonderful view of the sea at any time of day.

Category B: Junior suites with balcony. From

£7685 GBP pp

Our junior suites are also characterised by the elegant interpretation of the SEA CLOUD's classic design and are designed with love for detail. Their generous character is further enhanced by the fact that they are flooded with light thanks to the panorama windows. Those who are still not satisfied with the view outside the window can enjoy the proximity of the sea from the spacious balcony. These cabins are a must for people who love the sea and above all fresh air. The simple elegance of the classic modern interior corresponds in gentle tension with the maritime atmosphere on board our new ship.

Category A: Suites with balcony. From

£8869 GBP pp

The SEA CLOUD SPIRIT carries the spirit of our legendary flagship into a new age. This is also reflected in the ambience of the suites on the panorama deck. Her noble design combines with the spaciousness of the room to create an exclusive living environment. The idea of the suite is the modern interpretation of a tradition from the time when the ship owners themselves lived on board and had the best cabins furnished for themselves. The feeling of being the centre of the endless expanse of the ocean is reinforced by the unique perspective through the large panoramic windows overlooking the sea. Experiencing the sea is meant literally here – on the large balcony, sailing becomes a special pleasure.

Sea Cloud Spirit

Building a three-mast full-rigged ship with traditional rigging in the 21st century may seem a little unusual. For SEA CLOUD CRUISES it is a commitment to true passion for sailing. With her clear, classic line she follows the example of her elegant windjammer sisters, but goes completely new ways. An entire deck with balcony cabins, an exclusive wellness and SPA area, a fitness room with sea view, a bistro on deck as an evening alternative to “fine dining” in the restaurant – the youngest member of the SEA CLOUD family offers plenty of room for individuality in addition to genuine windjammer romance.

The SEA CLOUD SPIRIT combines traditional windjammer experience with 21st century comfort with up to 136 passengers.

Cabins
Even more comfort: of the 69 cabins from the owner suite to the superior outside cabin, almost half have balconies or windows to open.

Public areas
Spacious decks, a generous wellness and SPA area, fitness with sea view and much more: on board the SEA CLOUD SPIRIT, one does not only enjoy the freedom under sails.
