SAIL Amsterdam is a maritime event unlike any other in the world, that normally occurs every 5 years. Beautiful ships and boats from around the world make their way to Amsterdam for this event, during which there are many activities for visitors to enjoy. From stepping on board the ships for a tour to a boat tour amongst them on the water, this event is your chance to get up close to some of the greatest ships. Among the ships that come to the event will be tall ships, including three- and four-masts, navy ships, heritage ships, and ships from the Dutch fleet. All together they make for a magnificent sight, especially during the SAIL IN and SAIL OUT. On the first and last day of the event, the ships move between the North Sea and the city of Amsterdam, and back, along the Noordzeekanaal. When is SAIL Amsterdam?
