From sunny Lanzarote to lively Tenerife via Gran Canaria
While in Northern Europe the days are still cold and gray, we board in Lanzarote and the journey begins with sun, wind, and an endless horizon. These remarkable volcanic islands invite exploration: moon-like lava fields, green wine terraces, and whitewashed villages where time seems to stand still.
Start in Lanzarote
We depart from Marina Rubicón on the south coast. A perfect first leg: relaxing while getting familiar with the yacht and crew, enjoying the first breeze, and soaking up the Canary Islands atmosphere right away.
Atlantic crossing to Tenerife
Then the real adventure begins: a night passage of over 130 nautical miles across the Atlantic Ocean. With the steady northeast trade winds and mild temperatures, conditions are ideal. As the stars sparkle above, the ocean reveals its pure beauty. In Santa Cruz de Tenerife, a vibrant city awaits—a delightful mix of culture and nature. Those who wish can take a trip to the impressive Anaga Rural Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve with rugged cliffs, lush forests, and breathtaking views.
Gran Canaria – colorful and charming
The next leg takes us to Gran Canaria. Between the islands, the wind often blows strongly—ideal for sporty sailing over deep blue, sparkling waves. The destination is the picturesque Puerto de Mogán, the “Venice of the Canary Islands,” famous for its canals, colorful façades, and fragrant bougainvillea. Here, there’s time to relax or explore—for example, the mysterious dunes of Maspalomas, a desert by the sea.
Final destination: South Tenerife
Our final leg takes us through the acceleration zone to South Tenerife. In San Miguel or Las Galletas, we toast with tapas and wine to a journey full of sun, wind, and unforgettable moments.
During this sailing holiday, we cover daily legs between 20 and 150 nautical miles. The itinerary mentioned above depends on weather, wind, and tides. If necessary, we may deviate from the schedule.
Category A/C: A combination of a longer crossing and shorter legs with time for excursions on shore. Part of the sailing is done at night in a watch system. Perfect for sailors who want to experience open-sea sailing but also explore the surroundings.
