Organisers say the festival will once again combine on-water activity with music, food and entertainment ashore. Parades of sail are scheduled for both Saturday and Sunday, bringing fleets of traditional craft into the harbour.
The festival has become a regular fixture on the south coast sailing calendar, known for its relaxed atmosphere and community spirit. Visitors can also expect seafood, live music and singing sessions in pubs and hostelries throughout the village over the weekend.
Crosshaven’s sheltered harbour and maritime heritage continue to make it a popular destination for traditional sailing events.
