The schooner Regina Maris visits the Tigaiga on their Atlantic voyage

Regina Maris left Amsterdam for 6 months sailing with SCHOOL AT SEA: an interesting journey via Canary Islands,  Caribean, Panama,  Cuba, Azores and back to Amsterdam.

“The present school system offers too few extracurricular activities. Students don’t, for instance, come into contact with nature” says Monique Touw, instigator of the School At Sea project. This is why today, the Dutch sailing ship’s crew members joined by thirty secondary school students and teachers enjoyed a tour around Tigaiga hotel subtropical gardens on their way to America!
