The Ocean Race is one of the most important team regattas internationally. Its participants face the enormous challenge of sailing around the world. Historically, the regatta has been an effort for many of the best sailors in history. What stands out from this adventure is the enormous adrenaline they feel from spending so many days on board a boat under the conditions that such a high-level regatta requires.
The mechanics of the regatta is simple. It is an ocean marathon, a race that goes around the world in an anti-clockwise direction.
As a novelty in this next edition, there will be two classes of boats: the high-tech IMOCA 60 and the VO65 one-design. The new IMOCA 60 sailing boats are high performance, with foils that are powered by a 100% renewable energy source.
During the week prior to departure, in the port of Alicante you will be able to observe a multitude of activities from the water: boat training, optimist regattas and cruise ships or the start of the Ocean regatta to Cape Verde.
If you don't want to miss a minute of the biggest regatta in the world, sign up for the outings we organize on board one of our sailboats.
