Star Flyer
Description: Star Flyer is a stunning tall ship with four lofty masts and billowing white sails.
She takes passengers back to the days of historic clippers criss-crossing the oceans, ‘a star of the sea, fleet as the wind and as graceful as a swan,’ according to operator Star Clippers.
Heritage abounds: there is gleaming brass and mahogany, antique prints and paintings of famous sailing ships.
Yet Star Flyer is a modern cruise ship with the luxurious amenities and atmosphere of a private yacht. Cabins are spacious and there are two swimming pools.
She truly is a magnificent vessel.
Typical itinerary: Sail on a Grand Voyage to Spain, Portugal and Morocco on a 14-night cruise along the Iberian coast, calling at La Coruña, Lisbon and Cadiz before crossing to Tangier for a taste of North Africa then back to Gibraltar and Malaga.
