More DescriptionSeafaring life has always held great appeal for landlubbers. Spending months at sea, watching the sun set from the crow's nest, high up on the ship's mast. It sounds like a tale from far-flung times. But nothing could be further from the truth. From 7 until 10 July 2016, Antwerp's Scheldt quays and the Eilandje neighbourhood will offer an amazing spectacle, with dozens of tall ships berthing in the city centre. From there the most beautiful and largest sailing ships in the world will embark on a race to the south, to the ports of Lisbon, Cadiz and La Coruña. The city and port are proud to welcome The Tall Ships Races to the city for the sixth time.
