Sail into the past in modern-day comfort. Described by the press as "one of the most elegant of the remaining tall ships," Sir Francis Drake is restored to meet the high standards of today's discriminating traveller.

Built in 1917, you'll share this historic 165' schooner with 30 fun-loving sailmates while cruising the crystal-clear waters of the British Virgin Islands and other exotic Caribbean ports of call. This is cruising as it was meant to be done! The winter itinerary departs every Saturday from Road Town, Tortola, BVI, on delightful 7-night cruises, between November and June each year. Summer itineraries vary from year to year so that returning passengers can experience new island getaways. Accommodations are comfortable double- and single-berth, air-conditioned cabins, each with private bath and shower. Great for singles, couples, and groups.

Anchor in secluded coves and bays with brilliant beaches and a rainbow of tropical fish in balmy turquoise waters. Visit lush, unspoiled islands with quaint local cultures.
