What we will do
Our appointment will be at the Club Náutico de Altea 30 minutes before the booking time.
The first half hour will be dedicated to learning the main safety rules and all the technical aspects necessary for a smooth crossing. We will also learn how to steer the boat, initially with an instructor, until we feel comfortable at the helm and can leave the port behind.
There are many places where we can anchor depending on the weather and our tastes. The sea of Altea belongs to the natural park of Sierra Helada and is spectacular. For snorkelling lovers it will be a great opportunity, as we will be able to see everything from posidonia meadows, probably the best preserved on the coast, to vermétidos ledges, a unique habitat for a multitude of species.
We will sail without straying too far from the coast, as we will have a limit of 2 nautical miles. Moving south we can see the area of Sierra Helada, discover numerous coves where we can anchor or be surprised by the beauty of Mitjana Island. If we decide to go north, we will reach the coast of Campomanes, Morro de Toix and the entrance to Calpe.
We will receive information about the best coves and the areas where to anchor or drop anchor. In addition, if we need to, we will be able to contact land by telephone at any time.
The total sailing time will be 8 hours.
