Morgenster:
Santa Cruz de Tenerife (ES) - Madeira (PT)

08 February - 14 February 2020

From one exotic archipelago to the next. Step on board the Morgenster in the Canary Islands and set course for Madeira. Sail 350 nautical miles on the Atlantic Ocean, learning to trim the sails, steer and navigate. Look out for dolphins along the way. After your watch relax with a good book, leaving your cellphone behind. Look out at the stars without the light pollution and let the waves rock you to sleep. Reach Madeira and disembark filled with new experiences and great memories. Open to all Windseekers aged 15 and over.

Ports

Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the shared capital of the Canary Islands, together with Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The central square Plaza de España is a real eye-catcher, situated between the ocean and the old, bustling city centre. Lose yourself in the crowded alleys, find a spot on one of the terraces, or leave town and discover the rugged volcanic landscape. The museum of Nature and Man is worth a visit. Chances are you’ll find pilot whales in the waters around Tenerife, so keep an eye out!
