Description
JURASSIC COAST CLASSIC: LYMINGTON TO DARTMOUTH Join Dream Odyssey for a very special six-night sailing holiday from Lymington to Dartmouth, taking in the spectacular Jurassic Coast and some of the most beautiful parts of the south coast along the way. No previous sailing experience is required. This adventure is ideal for complete beginners, who can gain their RYA Competent Crew qualification while enjoying a memorable sailing holiday, as well as more experienced sailors simply looking to explore a beautiful stretch of coastline, enjoy some great sailing and build miles along the way. Join Dream Odyssey in Lymington at 5pm on Saturday 19 June 2027, where introductions, preparation and passage planning will begin. We’ll then head west through the Solent and along the Dorset and Devon coastlines, before disembarking in Dartmouth at 4pm on Friday 25 June 2027. Possible destinations and stops along the way include Swanage, Lulworth Cove, Weymouth and Salcombe, before completing the passage in Dartmouth. The precise route and overnight stops will be determined by the skipper, taking account of the weather, tides and conditions during the passage. There is also a very good chance that we’ll be joined by dolphins along the way! TRANSPORT The marina in Lymington is within walking distance of the railway station. From Dartmouth, bus services connect with Totnes railway station for onward travel. Both Lymington and Totnes have good rail connections. WHAT IS INCLUDED Your fee includes use of the yacht, tuition from an RYA Yachtmaster Instructor, marina fees during the passage, fuel and gas, accommodation aboard, use of waterproof jackets and salopettes, lifejackets, and all breakfasts, lunches, snacks, tea and coffee. Four evening meals aboard are also included. On the other two evenings, the crew will eat ashore at their own expense, choosing together where they would like to eat.
