NEWSLETTER OOSTERSCHELDE

THE CORONAVIRUS
Because of all the measures that the Spanish and French government had to take to stop the coronavirus, the OOSTERSCHELDE had to cancel her voyage to the Mediterranean Sea. The ship turned around and is now on her way to Rotterdam. Fortunately, everyone on board is healthy. 

The events that we were going to visit in the Mediterranean Sea were cancelled last week. The harbours of Portugal were already closed by then. We expected Spain and France to follow soon, so going back to the Netherlands was the most sensible decision. 

All the voyages up to the 1st of June 2020 will be cancelled or rescheduled. We have to wait and see how the situation is going to develop. For now we hope that we can resume our sailing schedule during the summer.

LOOKING BACK
We are unsure about what the near future will bring. Luckily, we do have a lot of beautiful memories of last winter in Cape Verde. We would like to share the experiences of our guests with you: 

"Sailing with the OOSTERSCHELDE was a dream coming true. The whole experience was what I had hoped and expected. The nature, the sailing and discovering the islands; it is a fantastic combination. I enjoyed the instructions, the stories (about the history of the ship and the island) and the rhythm on board. To everyone who made my dream come true, thank you! "
Susie, United Kingdom, February 2020 

"An outstanding voyage in beautiful Cape Verde. A fantastic crew, beautiful ship and an interesting and fun group of guests. A really fun adventure and a great experience!"
Juliette, The Netherlands, February 2020
