Sailing by full moon | night sailing
Experience the magic of night sailing under a full moon aboard a comfortable cabin sailing yacht. As soon as the sun sets, we hoist the sails and sail out onto the open water in complete tranquility. The silence, the crisp evening air, and the moonlight make this trip special and intense. Relaxing, yet just exciting enough to sharpen your senses. Book your moonlight trip! Come aboard and discover how enchanting the night on the Frisian waters can be. Book directly via VVV or via info@gloriasailing.nl. Can also be combined with an overnight stay on the boat. Rates from € 69 per person or privately from € 210 (for 2-6 people). For other evenings, inquire about the possibilities by email: info@gloriasailing.nl. See also our other activities via VVV or inquire about our tailor-made offer. Special dates: • The night of May 31st is the Blue Moon. A blue moon is a second full moon occurring within a single calendar month, a phenomenon that occurs on average once every 2 to 3 years. The moon does not actually turn blue in this case—the term symbolizes rarity. • On June 29, you will see the Strawberry Moon, the traditional name for the full moon in June, which often has a golden-yellow to orange-red color. Due to the moon's low position in the sky, the light refracts, and the moon often appears orange or red, just like a sunset. The name originates from North American tradition and marks the period when strawberries are harvested.
