Morgenster:
Cadiz (ES) - Cap d’Agde (ES)

24 February - 04 March 2020

Crossing the Strait of Gibraltar. You will start the journey in Cadiz on the Atlantic coast of Span and soon enter the Mediterranean Sea. Sail along the coast of Spain towards southern France and Cap d’Agde. Spend 9 days on board, making 700 nautical miles and enjoying the experience. You will set and trim the sails, steer, navigate and – if you want to – climb the masts. Please keep in mind that this is a delivery journey so visiting places along the way is not a priority. Open to all Windseekers aged 15 and over.

Ports

The oldest city in Spain, with a wealth of historic landmarks. Water is never far away, as the old town is built on a narrow stretch of land jutting out into the Mediterranean Sea. Get lost in the Old town with its many narrow, winding streets and visit one of the many parks that dot the city. Its many cathedrals and plazas are also well worth a visit. Go to La Caleta beach, at La Viña, the old fisherman quarter. Go catch a Flamenco concert and feast your taste buds with the fresh sea foods.
