Full description
If routine has you sailing in a sea of obligations, the time has come to change boats.
Climb aboard a catamaran in Isla Canela and let yourself be guided to discover the richness of the Lower Guadiana in a totally active and exciting way. Enjoy a flexible itinerary, sailing from 2 to 8 hours depending on the option booked, going along the virgin beaches of the mouth of the river or ascending the river in front of historic fortresses. The instructor will adapt the route to the wind to ensure you have an incredible day, and even enjoy a gastronomic stop in Portugal if you choose the option with lunch.
What we will do
You will arrive at the meeting point at Isla Canela in Huelva about 10 minutes before the start of the adventure. There you will be welcomed by the instructors and equipped with life jackets and wetsuits. Before boarding the catamaran you will receive a brief talk where they will explain the basic operation of sailing and safety rules.
Once in the water, you will start sailing in a totally private environment where the course will depend on your choice of hours and the sea conditions. The guide on board will propose different alternatives to suit your tastes. If you choose the ascent of the Guadiana, you will sail through calm waters discovering the naval history of the region, the protected marshlands, Ayamonte and the Portuguese village of Castro Marim with its imposing fortresses in the background.
Should you prefer to explore Portugal' s coastline, you will head westwards, losing the influence of the river to enjoy the crystal clear waters and white sands at Monte Gordo, Altura or Tavira, stopping for a swim if the weather is fine. On the other hand, if you book the 11am route, you will dock at the cove of Ponta da Areia to enjoy a traditional Portuguese lunch at a beach bar facing the river before continuing your journey.
Finally, you will take advantage of the wind to make an exciting return trip to the coast of Huelva. You will return to the beach after completing an unforgettable route that you can choose from 2 to 8 hours, saying goodbye to the instructor with the fantastic sensation of having enjoyed an exclusive and flexible nautical day adapted to your preferences.
