You can book the crossing with three boarding options:
- Lanzarote.
- Marina Alcaides (Algeciras Bay).
- Funchal (Madeira, Portugal).
Before arriving in Lanzarote we offer two more adventures, sailing around different islands of Macaronesia and Portugal. You can ask for more information about the prices of these other adventures and we will offer a special discount to those who book more than one of the consecutive adventures from the departure of the catamaran from the waters of Cadiz (Spain) to its final destination in the San Blas archipelago (Panama).
If you join the Atlantic crossing from Lanzarote, we recommend arriving a few days early to enjoy the island of the famous painter and sculptor Cesar Manrrique. You can visit some of his houses converted into art museums. You can visit its beautiful and iconic beaches such as Papagayos beach, Flamingos beach, Golden beach or visit the Castle of San Marcial de Rubicon Femes.
The island is also famous for its volcanic white wines. It is worth seeing these vines growing in the volcanic soil that gives so much flavour and character to its wines. The vines grow between stone banks to protect them from the winds. You can also visit some of its wineries.
The daily programme during the voyage will include 4-hour watches, which consist of being at the helm of the boat and observing strange elements or changes in the weather, strength or direction of the wind. Prior training will be provided to know how to act in the event of any change, in addition to the need to notify the captain in order to make decisions regarding changes or inclement weather. Generally, these watches will be carried out during the day, as the captain will work during the night hours when greater concentration is required. There will also be collaboration in the kitchen and in shifts: each person will have to cook and take care of cleaning the kitchen alternately.
During our rest hours we will go fishing. Fishing equipment is included, but bait is not. Everyone can bring their own; the most suitable and most successful catches are usually plastic squids, of different sizes or colours. However, we have bait on board, which you can buy for your use.
Reading, as well as recording videos for your social networks or as a souvenir, are other good activities on board. We have a Samsung Smart TV, so you can watch movies or series. We recommend bringing a hard drive to connect to the TV for this purpose. Smartphones can also be connected (Androids work better, with iPhones it is sometimes difficult to communicate with the TV). We have a Bluetooth Hi-Fi system, where you can connect your mobile phones to enjoy good music during the crossing. Physical exercise or yoga are also good activities on board.
