EUROPA POINT (GIBRALTAR)This trip is perfect if you are used to sailing and enjoy a day at sea. We will take you as close as we can to Europa Point, the southernmost tip of Gibraltar. This trip normally takes 5-6 hours and we can guarantee you stunning views of two continents and three countries.
The trip starts when you are safely aboard and are served a welcome drink, our preference being something chilled and bubbly, but other options are of course available.
Before setting sail we will take a ten minute detour and follow the canal to the inner parts of Sotogrande marina, past the luxurious and colourful apartments at the frontline of the canal. Returning we will head straight out to sea going south-west towards Europa Point. When you are settled and comfortable, and the fresh sea air has built up an apetite, we will prepare an all-inclusive buffet which you can enjoy in the saloon, in the cockpit at the Captain's table or on deck by yourself, giving you time to enjoy the tranquility of the sea. If you chose a sunrise cruise and the morning fog has lifted we can promise you amazing views of the meeting of three countries and two continents. Spain and Gibraltar in Europe and Morocco on the northern coast of Africa. We have seen whales and dolphins on numerous trips, but unfortunately we can not promise you this on your particular trip, but don't loose faith, keep a close lookout and hopefully they will show up to greet you. If the time is right heading back, you might witness a spectacular sunset, the light fading beyond Costa del Sol and Gibraltar. USEFUL INFORMATIONACTIVITIESShould you get bored just sitting around on deck and there are no whales or dolphins to watch, you are welcome to take the helm or help with the sails. If you would like to do some fishing or go scuba diving, or have any other activity in mind, feel free to bring your equipment along. If you want to go swimming we have snorkelig gear and towels at your disposal. PRECAUTIONS AND TIPSBefore boarding Tealie, we would like to pass on some friendly tips.
