On June 23, 2019 By syaltimateIn Atlantic, Spain, Text BlogLeave a comment

May 26 - June 20, 2019; 787 nm and 88 days after departure from La Rochelle It is absolutely amazing. The four rías (Ría de Muros, Ría de Arousa, Ría de Pontevedra and Ría de Vigo) provide so many  beautiful caribbean like beaches that it is unbelieveable that they are not more touristically developed. The …

May 25 - Mai 26, 2019; 652 nm and 63 days after departure from La Rochelle OMG what a ride! We had two unbelievable perfect sailing days. Downwind sailing with the swell pushing us and the sun warming our bodies. I think, that must be sailors delight as I can't think of better conditions for …

It is only possible to enter and leave the ría around high water, in daylight and in suitable weather conditions with possibly no waves or swell. Due …

Getxo/Bilbao/Santander

On May 1, 2019 By syaltimateIn Atlantic, Spain, Text Blog2 Comments

Leaving San Sebástian was a bit sad as we had to say good bye to this beautiful scenic city with it's delicious food. On the other hand we were looking forward to discover more of the Basque Country. The passage was unspectacular. The most exciting part was the unexpected heavy winds in the beginning of …
