About the Event

If you’re a hard core sailing enthusiast or wish to learn the fine art of sailing, Veer Yatra presents the perfect classroom for 3D/2N. It’s called the Arabian Sea.


Join Veer Yatra’s 80+ nautical miles Konkan Odyssey along India’s western coast and learn all about boats, yachts, sailing techniques, winds, tides, navigation tips, survival skills at sea and night sailing too, while you thrill to the ocean winds in your hair and the euphoria of flying salt spray on your face. Learn to master the Seabird Class of Boats helped by your very own Captain to your destination, while you build up a treasure trove of knowledge about our navy, our coastal waters and the coast guards who secure our coastline, as you complete an unforgettable voyage tutorial from Varsoli Beach (Alibaug) to Harihareshwar and up the Savitri River to the Veer Yatra rendezvous point.


India’s long coastlines (7,500+ km), have seldom been explored by its own citizens while the rest of the world (from Arabs to Europeans) explored our country from the seas! Imagine a birds- eye view of the Western Ghats back-drop, as you learn sailing and set out on your own voyage of discovery- from Varsoli Beach (Alibag), up to Harihareshwar and then sail up the Savitri river and anchor in the middle of the river to be welcomed by our Veer Yatra team for a party under the starry skies!

All 4 can sail and enjoy the seas OR 2 can rest on simple sleeping benches while the other 2 keep watch and guide the yacht along! Be with nature, enjoy the breeze, the splashing waves and learn to enjoy and endure the 12+ hour journey. Learn all about the yacht, name it and set sail!!
