 Locations

Faramir starts and ends her season in Ipswich, Suffolk but from late April to June she usually operates from Newcastle for coastal voyages and occasionally longer sea passages to more distant ports. In July and August, Faramir often sails further afield, either to compete in The Tall Ships’ Race or to explore the west coast of Scotland before returning to the North East for September and October.
