Experience sailing, experience team work, experience the unforgettable, experience of a lifetime...

The Voyage of a Lifetime scheme aims to give the people of Pembrokeshire the chance of a lifetime to take a voyage on a magnificent sailing ship.

In 2009, MHPA worked with partners the Jubilee Sailing Trust and the Tall Ships Youth Trust to offer voyages on a Tall Ship and local chartering vessels who ran voyages on the Milford Haven Waterway. 

Rachel Jones, who sailed with the Jubilee Sailing Trust on board the 'Tenacious' from Southampton to London commented;

"I want to say thank you to Milford Haven Port Authority for helping me to go on this voyage of a lifetime. I had an amazing time and made friends for life. This wouldn't have been possible without your help!"

Speaking of the benefits of the initiative, Claire Palmer, Head of Community Development at Milford Haven Port Authority commented;

"The experience strips back barriers and perceptions and is all about working as a team. It enables you to re-assess how well you interact with other people and know yourself. The voyages are a great way of building or renewing confidence and developing personal and social interaction skills - a great opportunity to take a refreshed view of how individuals can work as part of a team to make a big difference."
