Itinerary



Day 1 - DAY 1, Málaga/Spain
Departure 07.00 pmSpend the day sunbathing, enjoy the fresh wind breeze, and relax into the day!
Day 2 - DAY 2, Day beneath full sails
Climbing the rigging, untying ropes, setting sails – today is all about sailing. Time to lean back and relax in the deck chair and watch the passionate crew hoisting the sails by hand.
Day 3 - DAY 3, Cartagena/Spain
Arrival 08.00 am, Departure 01.30 pmAn important port as long ago as Carthaginian and Roman times, Cartagena can look back on an eventful history. The "La Manga" headland, over 20 kilometers (12 miles), is a geographical curiosity which divides the long sandy beach of the "Mar Menor" salt water lagoon from that of the Mediterranean. Inland, the Fuensanta convent is mainly famous for a vision of the Virgin Mary which appeared there around 200 years ago and sits high up above the town of Murcia. It affords a delightful view over this lively university town. The huge Cathedral of Murcia was built in 1394 on the former site of a Moorish mosque.
Day 4 - DAY 4, Valencia/Spain
Arrival 09.00 am, Departure 05.00 pmOn one corner its centuries old and around the next totally modern – Valencia is everything all at once. Today the beautiful old town and the old silk market "La Lonja de la Seda", which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, still bear witness to the city's wealth in the Middle Ages. A brand new part of the city is situated in a drained river bed and has avant-garde buildings including a futuristic opera house, the largest aquarium in Europe, a botanical garden and a public park. Valencia is one of the few cities that has a heritage of over 2,000 years and is also so intriguingly combined with the future. And no other city in Europe can proudly make the claim that the America’s Cup has already taken place twice right on its front door.
Day 5 - DAY 5, Tarragona/Spain
Arrival 01.30 pm, Departure 06.00 pmWelcome to ancient times! Roman history comes alive in the Catalan port city of Tarragona. It all began in 218 B.C.: that was when the Romans conquered the city, gave it the name Tarraco and began to build monuments that are now part of the UNESCO World Heritage. If you walk along the old city wall and visit the amphitheatre, the triumphal arch and the forum, you will feel as if you have been transported back thousands of years into the past. A little younger, but equally worth seeing is the Cathedral de Santa Maria: its construction lasted from 1171 to 1331, which is why it combines Romanesque and Gothic style elements.
Day 6 - DAY 6, Palamós/Spain
Arrival 08.00 am, Departure 06.00 pmWide sandy beaches, clear water, sheltered rocky coves and plenty of sunshine – it's no wonder that tourism is one of Palamós' mainstays. The other important industry in the small Costa Brava town of 20,000 inhabitants has traditionally been fishing. Every afternoon, a fleet of fishing boat moors on the quay of the marine port – next to the pleasure boat harbor with its pretty yachts – and takes the day’s catch up to the auction hall. Palamós is also the perfect starting point for cultural excursions: Medieval Girona, with its walkable city walls, and Salvador Dalí's hometown of Figueres, are not far away.
Day 7 - DAY 7, Cassis/France
Arrival 01.30 pm, Departure 11.00 pmAs soon as the Provençal sun shines down on pine forests, limestone cliffs and the azure sea, the air in Cassis has a spicy scent of salt and summer. Then nothing is more fun than strolling through the narrow alleys and finding a place in one of the street cafés. With the colorful fishermen's cottages in the back, the view wanders quite relaxed over the rosé wine glass to the boats bobbing in the harbor. A small tip: the Calanques, the wildly romantic rocky bays, can be hiked or discovered on a boat tour.
Day 8 - DAY 8, Day beneath full sails
Climbing the rigging, untying ropes, setting sails – today is all about sailing. Time to lean back and relax in the deck chair and watch the passionate crew hoisting the sails by hand.
Day 9 - DAY 9, Nice/France
Arrival 08.00 amNice lies in one of the world's most lavishly endowed natural landscapes. The sea glows azure and the mountains in the background rise picturesquely up into the sky. Castle Hill gives you a fantastic view over the rambling old town – a labyrinth of alleyways with Baroque churches, pastel-colored houses and red-tiled roofs. The Promenade des Anglais, a sophisticated, five-kilometer-(3 miles)long walkway along the magnificent Baie des Anges and its long beach, lies at the heart of the elegant new town, with its splendid palaces and aristocratic hotels in the Belle-Époque and Art Deco styles.
Day 10 - Please Note:
