Set out on a memorable 5-day voyage aboard this Tall Ship, sailing the scenic Iberian coastline from Málaga to Lisbon, with a stop in the breathtaking Algarve region. This journey combines immersive sailing experiences, cultural exploration, and the stunning beauty of the Atlantic coast. Whether you’re an experienced sailor or a first-time adventurer, you’ll be captivated by picturesque views, historic landmarks, and warm hospitality.
The adventure begins in Málaga, a city steeped in history and famous as the birthplace of Pablo Picasso. Stroll through its lively streets, visit the Alcazaba fortress for panoramic coastal vistas, or admire masterpieces at the Picasso Museum. As the ship departs Málaga, you’ll have the chance to join the crew, learning to navigate and operate this magnificent tall ship as we set sail.
Heading west, we enter the Atlantic and make our way to Portimão in the Algarve, Portugal. Renowned for its dramatic cliffs, pristine beaches, and clear turquoise waters, Portimão offers a sun-soaked retreat. Wander the marina, explore the historic Fortaleza de Santa Catarina, or unwind on the sandy shores of Praia da Rocha. Don’t miss the opportunity to savor fresh, local seafood in this culinary haven.
Following a day in Portimão, we sail north along the coast to Lisbon, Portugal’s lively and colorful capital. Keep a lookout for dolphins that often accompany ships in these waters. Upon reaching Lisbon, you’ll discover a city where history and modernity blend seamlessly. Explore tram-lined streets, experience the soulful sounds of fado, and take in panoramic views from spots like Miradouro de Santa Catarina. From the historic Belém Tower to the contemporary design of the MAAT museum, Lisbon offers a rich array of sights to explore.
Throughout the voyage, you’ll be encouraged to engage in the sailing experience—hoisting sails, mastering knots, or even steering the ship. As evening falls, unwind on deck with a drink in hand, watching the sun dip below the horizon and reflecting on the adventures of the day.
