BAY OF BISCAY MILE BUILDER

This two week sailing adventure starts in sunny Dartmouth and heads west towards the beautiful Isles of Scilly before embarking on some ‘serious’ sailing across the Bay of Biscay to Portugal, the historic home of sailors and explorers.
 It is ideal for:
 • RYA qualifications • Mileage building • New sailing adventures & experiences
 The Costa Verde in north Portugal is, as the name suggests, an area of dense, green vegetation with many beautiful ports to choose from. From here we also hope to pay a visit to the country’s capital city, Lisbon before sailing down to the famous Algarve region. In Vilamoura’s enormous marina the vibrant nightlife and warm temperatures will help ensure that 'holiday feeling'.
 Leaving Portugal we head for the Straights of Gibraltar, the gateway to the Mediterranean, and a fantastic area for observing dolphins and whales. This time of year also sees the Rock of Gibraltar become a staging post for many thousands of migrating birds heading for tropical Africa.
