The Clipper 2025-26 Race route will once again feature the South African sailing hotspot of Cape Town as the fleet returns to the V&A Waterfront for the twelfth time.
The V&A Waterfront is a firm favourite on the Clipper Race route. And for the Race Crew who will be arriving on the back of a gruelling South Atlantic crossing from South America, they will be delighted to lap up some summer sun and all the culture the vibrant city of Cape Town has to offer.
The Clipper Race is one of the biggest challenges of the natural world and an endurance test like no other. With no previous sailing experience necessary, this is a record breaking 40,000 nautical mile race around the world on a 70-foot ocean racing yacht. Normally the domain of seasoned pros, this supreme challenge is taken on by ordinary, everyday people.
Once the fleet of ten ocean racing yachts is docked, visitors can head down to the marina to meet the exceptional people taking on this adventure of a lifetime. Boats will be open to the public, with the opportunity to check out the Nav Station, galley, bunks and stowage, and see where each of the 20 Race Crew live when not on deck. Above deck, take the helm or try your hand on one of the eleven winches capable of lifting the sails up the 29m [95 foot] mast.
