Tall ship sailing in the Chicago lakefront

Enjoy a leisurely sail on the Tall Ship Windy, rated highly on Frommer's. Your ship, a 148 foot traditional four masted gaff topsail schooner. Built of modern materials, but like the old trading schooners and sail training ships, the ship has all the character and charm of the great Age of Sail.

You can enjoy sails that are between 60 to 75 minutes in length. Each day of our sailings are unique, with every trip dependent on the direction of the wind. No two tours are alike. Each sail also has a tour theme led by our enthusiastic crew-educators! Our tall ship crew are multi-talented individuals, many of whom have experience in the study of history, maritime lore, the arts, music, and theatre- ready to bring their experience to enhance your enjoyment aboard Windy! You can simply relax on deck in quiet, or gather around for storytelling and hands-on fun!
