Accomodatie
From the Owner Suite to the De-luxe outside cabin: 47 cabins for highest demands and with all comfort.
The SEA CLOUD II has its very own personality and combines the amenities of a modern cruise ship with the unique atmosphere of a romantic tall ship.
IN STYLE, AUTHENTIC, AND VERY INDIVIDUAL.
Plenty of space for the highest demands
As an elegant square-sailing boat, the SEA CLOUD II, built in 2001, is clearly recognisable as the younger sister of the legendary SEA CLOUD. Despite all the maritime family resemblance, she has her own generous personality – and spoils you as a guest with the most modern travel comfort.
The SEA CLOUD II perfectly combines spaciousness for up to 94 passengers with the lifestyle of a private yacht.
Since 2001, the SEA CLOUD II, with a total length of 117 meters, 23 sails and about 3,000 square meters of sail area as a three-mast barque, has also enriched the fleet of blue-water cruise ships under sails.
From the Owner Suite to the De-luxe outside cabin: 47 cabins for highest demands and with all comfort.
Sea Cloud II's meals are served in the Restaurant in single seatings. They focus on local and continental cuisine and feature wines that compliment the dishes beautifully.
Meals are served on our ships in one seating. Service times can be found in the daily program on board. Please kindly note that reservations are not possible. As an alternative to dining in the restaurant, you can enjoy your dinner on the SEA CLOUD SPIRIT casually and flexibly in the bistro on the lido deck.
Our top-quality wines from well-known vineyards are often locally sourced. Our sommelier carefully selects each wine for every season and sailing destination. Wines are paired with lunch and dinner menus. In addition, you are always free to select your favorite wine from the menu.
Four spacious decks, lounge, library, gym, massage and beauty salon: The SEA CLOUD II offers its maximum of 94 guests plenty of space and variety.
Children are welcome on our ships, but please keep in mind there is no daycare or special entertainment for children on board our ships.

OUR CONTRIBUTION TO ECO-FRIENDLY TRAVEL
We approach the people and their cultures with respect in all the regions we visit, travelling mindfully through the local environment. By doing this, we can bring our guests closer – in the truest sense of the word – to these places, and what makes each one special.
THE WINDJAMMER EXPERIENCE
For you and us alike, the key attraction of our trips is the chance to sail on the open seas.
We therefore take every opportunity to set sail and be propelled by the sheer power of the wind. That is why the captain will sometimes change the route if the weather requires it. On board our SEA CLOUD tall ships, you’ll experience the elements, as many of the day-to-day activities take place outside.
HAVING AS LITTLE IMPACT AS POSSIBLE
When we do have to start the engines, we utilise low-sulphur marine diesel on all three of our windjammers.
For us, this is standard practice. Even the SEA CLOUD, our very first windjammer, was equipped with this technology right from the start. Our motto: to minimise our impact on the environment yet still make a profound and positive impression on those around us.
A SUSTAINABLE APPROACH TO LIFE ON-BOARD
Avoiding plastic, reducing water usage and protecting the environment.
These are the factors that guide us in the day to day operation of our ships and our ongoing development of eco-friendly alternatives. To cite just one example, our reusable drinks bottles are not only easy on the eye, but also easy on the environment.
QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY
Our ‘small but perfectly formed’ windjammers are able to visit smaller ports, away from the busy routes frequented by large cruise liners.
With a maximum of 64 to 136 passengers, we’re always welcomed in those locations thanks to our approach of visiting local communities rather than overwhelming them. Needless to say, our itineraries also include some classic destinations, though we usually visit these only when the mega-liners have moved on.
BOOSTING THE LOCAL ECONOMY
Procuring supplies locally, working with local, smaller-scale agencies and paying fair prices.
By taking this approach, we see ourselves as a partner for our local service providers, with whom we’ve built relationships based on trust over many years. After all, we want our voyages to benefit both our guests and the communities we visit around the world.
AUTHENTIC CUISINE
Our menus are always a true reflection of the regional cuisine.
This is because our chefs enjoy buying exotic spices, local specialities and freshly caught fish from local markets to bring you – even in a culinary sense – closer to the places we visit.
A MEMBER OF THE FUTOURIS NETWORK
Heading into the future with Futouris.
