SYNOPSIS
Join FALKEN in beautiful and historic Bergen, Norway for our 2024 All Women’s Passage! After provisioning, safety orientation and weather briefing, we’ll cruise the fjords of Norway getting familiar with the boat underway before heading offshore. Weather and wind will dictate our course as we sail into the North Sea bound for its southern shores and a new destination port for 59º North—Amsterdam! We’ll navigate into the North Sea Canal and the busy European seaport to tie up in a marina centrally located in Amsterdam.
TYPICAL WEATHER PATTERN
Summer in northern Europe is peak sailing time, but expect cool temperatures, variable conditions, and possible moisture.
