The Ocean Race 2023 Kiel Fly-By

Review: Sailing right on the Kiel Line

On Friday, June 9, 2023, The Ocean Race, one of the toughest regattas around the globe, was in the Kiel Fjord for the Kiel Fly-By. The turning mark for The Ocean Race Kiel Fly-By was directly in front of the Kiel Line, so that spectators were able to experience the spectacular turn of the ocean racers live and up close.

There was also a varied supporting program in Ocean Live Park on the Kiellinie from 8 - 10 June. The focus here was on sailing and, above all, sustainability, which connects the marine conservation city of Kiel and The Ocean Race. In addition to extensive food offerings, visitors were able to enjoy various sailing-related events and an entertaining stage program including live streaming and moderation.
