The DARWIN200 voyage set sail from Plymouth UK on a historic tall ship Oosterschelde in August 2023, following Charles Darwin’s world voyage on the HMS Beagle. Built in 1918, this uniquely restored, three masted schooner is one of the most beautiful historic vessels afloat. This global journey is made up of 32 voyage legs, and involves sailing to some of the most beautiful corners of the world. 

From the exquisite tropical islands of Polynesia to the hauntingly beautiful glacial fjords of Chile, crews will land on coral islands to snorkel on pristine reefs, visit beaches home to nesting sea turtles, adventure to the Galapagos islands on board one of the world’s most beautiful historic vessels. Discover for yourself the wildlife that fascinated Charles Darwin and led to the emergence of his great theories and ideas, from Galapagos tortoises to marine iguanas. 

An absolute beauty, the boat resonates with history and adventure.

Sailing aboard is a very special experience. The crew will be happy to explain the function of all the ropes, halyards and sheets to you.

While the boat is anchored, a sloop and a dinghy are available for making trips ashore to explore.  One of the crew members will take you to shore and pick you up again safely. 

Beyond being a truly great adventure, the DARWIN200, is a planetary conservation initiative that will empower the next generation’s elite environmental leaders and engage millions of students worldwide in conservation projects.

This Trip is Suitable For
Adventurers, sailors and anyone who wants to experience a sailing adventure with good health and a reasonable level of fitness. There are no upper age limits although a doctor’s note may be requested. The DARWIN200 2023-25 Global Voyage is intended to be a life changing adventure for those who take part. That said, global voyages are intense experiences so make an enquiry to chat to Larissa as to whether this is the voyage for you!

The Global Voyage consists of 32 Voyage Legs which follow Charles Darwin’s route on HMS Beagle.  The ship will make landfall at key locations where Darwin stepped ashore.  

During each of these landfall stops, the ship will host groups of DARWIN LEADERS to undertake  research projects in exactly the same locations visited by Charles Darwin two centuries ago. For logistical reasons, the route of HMS Beagle has been simplified.  For example, HMS Beagle back-tracked north and south several times along the east coast of  South America. We will sail this route only once.  

The crew have also added a few locations that Charles Darwin did not visit. These enhance the global voyage and enable sailing during periods of optimal weather. These additional stops also allow essential repair and maintenance, refuelling, provisioning and planned publicity events.  Crucially, unlike HMS Beagle (which sailed across the Indian Ocean), we are returning from  Australia via Cape Horn to enable visits to South Georgia and Tristan da Cunha! 

With the exception of Cocos (Keeling) and Mauritius, the crew will make landfall at every major location  Charles Darwin visited during his voyage aboard HMS Beagle! 

The permanent crew members are highly experienced ocean going sailors. The crew holds all the required certificates and diplomas and is qualified to sail  worldwide. The atmosphere on board is informal and friendly.
