This is a 7-day looped leg. It fits you perfectly if you are interested to see what was Nelson voyages along Portuguese coasts.
At the end of the first decade of May we’re going to be in Vigo. We get underwayafter awelcome dinner and mandatory safety briefing. First – a leisure sail along the sheltered bay. In these comfortable conditions we can learn in details to set, trimto the wind and strikesails , try steer the shipand climb the mast for the first time.
After departure, or on the way back to Vigo, an anchorage by the Cies islands. We go ashore with our dinghy and walk around the forests and rocks of the natural reserve.
Ocean journey is always special. Big "rollers" of ocean swell are soft and gentle. Weather in spring normally mild and warm. Portuguese hospitality (and local porto ) are "a must" during this journey. If we are lucky with the wind, we'll make a good stop near Lisbon, before returning to Vigo on 14th May, late evening.
In case of favorableforecast we may have time to go to our beloved Portuguese Porto and back.
