Overview
Inspired by the tall ship Preussen, the Royal Clipper has the proud distinction of being the largest and only five-masted full-rigged sailing ship built since her predecessor was launched at the beginning of the last century.
For connoisseurs of sail cruising, the 134 metres Royal Clipper offers the ultimate sea-going experience, balancing the grandeur, adventure and tradition of sailing with the superb service, amenities and accommodations of the finest modern yacht. Royal Clipper carries just 227 guests in luxurious style. A full 1760 square metres of open deck and three swimming pools create a wonderfully spacious and expansive outdoor environment.
Find your secret hideaway on one of the hidden balconies on eiter side of the bow. Or climb the mast (with safty harness provided) to one of the passenger look out 'crow's-nests', where you'll have the grandest view of all! Royal Clipper's interior spaces are just as dazzling.
They include a three-deck atrium that funnels sunlight into the elegantly appointed dining room, featuring deliciously prepared cuisine and a no-tie dress code. A convenient marina platform lowers from the stern for watersports. And the ultimate unique Royal Clipper experience, the one-of-a-kind Captain Nemo Lounge, is the site of our spa and health club with underwater glass portholes.

More detailsClipper Dining Room
When you rise, help yourself to a continental breakfast with Parisian croissants or sweet Danish pastries. Or savour a full breakfast with fresh tropical fruit and crisp bacon, grilled sausage and omelettes cooked to order in the dining room.
At lunch, a marvellous buffet of seafood, salads and grilled favourites awaits your pleasure. If the day includes a stop at one of the paradisical islands we frequent, you might also be treated to a succulent outdoor barbecue on shore.
When evening comes, our elegantly appointed dining room becomes the setting for the chef’s finest culinary presentations, designed to please the eye and the palate, complemented by a selection of equally fine wines.
You’ll find our service to be friendly and gracious, befitting a tasteful restaurant. Of course, we would not presume to dictate your seating preferences. On all three ships, you are free to dine when and with whomever you wish - including with our officers, who join our guests in the dining room most nights. The dress code? No need for formal gowns and black tie, casual elegance is the order of the day and every single night.

Life on board



Library
Located to the aft end of the Main Deck’s open space extending beyond the Tropical Bar is the Ship’s Library. With a maximum capacity of about 50 persons, it is ideal for a small group meeting. However, its main use is for quiet reading from the bookshelves that add rich colour to the chamber. It is not uncommon to find passengers enjoying a game of chess, backgammon, gin rummy, bridge or checkers by the fireplace located in the center of the library’s aft wall. By virtue of U.S. Coast Guard safety guidelines restricting open fires on commercial vessels, the fire in the fireplace is an electric simulation. Yet, it still emanates a warm, reflective glow that creates a relaxing old-world atmosphere.


Shore Excursions
A wide variety of exceptional shore excursions are offered in the many extraordinary destinations Star Clippers visits around the world to enhance your journey. Don't miss your opportunity to immerse yourself in the local history, culture, art, architecture and beauty located in each region by taking advantage of these carefully crafted tours offering an insight into the locale's true identity. Of course, all shore excursions are optional, and you can chose which one you'd like or just explore on your own. The staff is available for suggestions and sign up is done right on board, in most cases. For a preview of what is offered in each port, you can find the details right on our website.

Theme Cruises
For travelers seeking a deeper, more immersive cruise experience, theme cruises offer a unique opportunity to indulge in personal passions while sailing to stunning destinations. These specially curated voyages bring together experts in various fields—gastronomy, wine, wellness, and more—to enhance the journey with exclusive events and activities.
On select sailings, guests will have the chance to learn from renowned chefs, sommeliers, yoga teachers, and wellness specialists, each bringing a wealth of expertise to the onboard experience. Enjoy engaging lectures, hands-on cooking demonstrations, and expertly guided wine tastings, all designed to inspire and educate. Wellness enthusiasts can benefit from expert-led sessions focused on relaxation, mindfulness, and holistic well-being, including yoga classes tailored for all skill levels.
Whether you're a food and wine connoisseur, a yoga enthusiast, or someone looking to unwind and rejuvenate, a theme cruise offers a memorable way to connect with like-minded travelers while deepening your knowledge in a relaxed, elegent setting.

Watersports
Water sports for all tastes!
On beach stops our sports team can offer you: kayaks, paddle boards and dinghies as well as water skiing and windsurfing. Enjoy your favourite water sports during the cruise or take the opportunity to try something new.
Snorkelling
Close your eyes and imagine you are soaking up the sun on a white sandy beach in the Caribbean; crystal clear waters invite you to explore the underwater world of coral reefs and colourful tropical fish. Star Clippers hands out snorkelling equipment to all passengers upon arrival on board, so all you have to do is dive in and explore.
Sailor for a day!
Life on the ocean is one big adventure! Discover the sailing techniques used by our marine experts. Our crew will help you to hoist the sails, climb the mast, and tie marine knots. You will learn the names of the different sails and how to use a sextant. When evening comes and the velvety darkness is punctuated by stars, our officers will show you how to navigate at night with the help of the stars.
Exclusive Sailing Destinations
Star Clippers takes you to the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and Central America, far from all the crowds and congested harbours.
Our tenders or zodiac service allow you to go ashore in comfort and disembark either in port or directly on the beach, so you are free to set off and explore each destination. On Royal Clipper, a specially designed marine platform can be lowered to sea level, so you can enjoy water sports directly from the ship!

Lookout Stations
Lookout stations have been created at the first yardarm on each of the masts. Equipped with high safety rails, and a comfortable teak settee for lounging at ease, passengers can observe all the action below and out to the edge of the horizon. Passengers wishing to climb to the lookout posts slip on a ship supplied safety vest tethered to a watchful crew member on the deck, who keeps the safety line secured as they make the easy ascent up one of the ratlines. All three Star Clippers ships offer this exciting activity that is bound to be one of the highlights of a Star Clippers cruise.
