Three Bridges Taster Catamaran Sailing Experience from Port Edgar

• Set sail onboard a luxury Lagoon Sailing Catamaran
• Sail under the three bridges that span the River Forth
• Take the controls of the yacht if you would like
• See local wildlife including Porpoises, Seals and Seabirds
• Pass Rosyth, Limekilns and Blackness on the trip

This is a fantastic sailing experience on the River Forth and the only one like it on the east coast. You’ll be boarding a luxury sailing catamaran at Port Edgar Marina in South Queensferry for an adventurous voyage of discovery. 

At the start of the journey you’ll be introduced to your RYA qualified yachtmaster for the 2.5 hour voyage. Boarding the boat you’ll meet the other guests and take your seats.

Departing the port the sails will be hoisted and you’ll experience the majestic feeling of sailing across the water.

As you sail out under the Forth bridges marvel at the UNESCO world heritage site at the Forth Rail Bridge, considered to be one of the engineering wonders of the world. Sail underneath as trains travel overhead and awe at its huge cantilever design.

You’ll then sail up river past Rosyth Naval Dockyard and Blackness Castle ‘the ship that never sailed’ with fantastic views of both. Wind and tide influence the exact route but you are guaranteed a view of the coast on both sides of the river like no other.

The experience is as hands on as you would like, assisting the crew. You’re welcome to take the helm and control the boat under the guidance of the skipper.  Learn about the rigging, control the direction of travel and experience how to tack and navigate through the wind, sea and other marine traffic. Or, if you’d prefer just sit back and relax and enjoy the scenery and wildlife.

Don’t forget your camera!
