Sail Portsmouth is thrilled to announce the return of the majestic Tall Ships to Portsmouth, NH! This exciting event will kick off with a spectacular Parade of Sail on Friday, July 26th, from 9am to 11:30am, marking the beginning of several days filled with maritime adventure and exploration. 

Event Details: 

  • Parade of Sail: Friday, July 26th, 9am – 11:30am 
  • Tall Ship Tours: Saturday, July 27th, and Sunday, July 28th, 10am – 5pm 
  • Tall Ship Sails: July 25th – 28th, 2024 | Various Days and Times Available 

The Parade of Sail will feature an impressive lineup of vessels, including the renowned Barque Eagle, Ernestina-Morrissey, and Denis Sullivan, along with the iconic Gundalow, a Navy tug, the City fireboat, and a multitude of supporting and enthusiastic pleasure craft and fishing vessels. Local boat owners are also encouraged to join the Parade of Sail, gathering at the mouth of the Piscataqua that morning to be part of this grand maritime procession. 

The heart of the event lies in the captivating Tall Ship Tours, scheduled for Saturday, July 27th, and Sunday, July 28th, from 10am to 5pm each day at the Port of Portsmouth (555 Market Street). Visitors will have the extraordinary opportunity to step aboard these historic vessels, exploring their decks, meeting the crew, and delving into the rich maritime heritage they embody.

Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a novice, these excursions promise unforgettable moments as you navigate the waters of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean aboard these magnificent ships.
