Welcome to our Island Pilgrimage!
Welcome to our Island Pilgrimage! This is a “prayer sail” circumnavigating the British Isles. Setting off from Devon in May 2025 we plan to sail clockwise around the British Isles. As well as visiting many wonderful sites of Christian pilgrimage around the coast we plan to stop frequently in cities, towns and villages across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland to connect with people and pray.
In Summer 2025 we sailed from Dartmouth to Ardrossan in the Firth of Clyde, covering 1300 Nautical Miles, visiting 53 Cities, towns and anchorages, joined by 20 fellow pilgrims sailing with us and hosting more than 60 visitors onboard.
We have partnered with the Morning Star Trust to raise awareness and funds for their life changing youth work.
