Tallship Artemis carries with her the soul of the sea — and it all began right here, in Larvik.
Built in Norway in 1926, Artemis was once part of the proud maritime legacy that shaped this coastal town. Larvik, known for its deep ties to the sea and its bold seafarers, was a launching point for ships heading into the unknown — to icy oceans, distant horizons, and great adventures.
Now, nearly a century later, Artemis has returned to her birthplace — not as a working vessel, but as a majestic three-masted barque — this time, with you on board.
As we hoist the sails and leave Larvik’s harbor behind, you’ll become part of a living story. The wind in the rigging, the creak of the wood, and the endless sea ahead — it all connects past and present in a way only a ship like Artemis can.
This year marks a special milestone, and we’re celebrating it the best way we know how – with an unforgettable sailing journey across the Baltic Sea!
Join us on board the Tallship Artemis as we sail from Larvik to the historic city of Rostock, combining adventure, tradition, and celebration.
Experience the spirit of tallship sailing: hoisting the sails, feeling the wind in your hair, and watching the sun set over the open sea. Along the way, enjoy festive moments on board, shared experiences with fellow travellers, and the warm camaraderie that only life at sea can bring.
Whether you're an experienced sailor or setting foot on deck for the first time, this anniversary voyage promises a perfect mix of nature, and joy.
Secure your spot now and be part of a once-in-a-lifetime celebration on the high seas!
Join us for a voyage that begins where history lives.
On Sunday 26 July at 4:00 p.m., our owner Jan Bruinsma will give a special presentation about the fascinating history of the ship – a story that spans an entire century of sailing adventures.
To make this voyage even more festive, we’ll also be serving a special edition craft beer, brewed especially to celebrate the ship’s 100th anniversary! Cheers to a century at sea!
