[ Cancelled ] World ARC Panama to Galapagos, February 2020 Panama to Galapagos ref 10770

Dan Bower wants 3 crew for Skyelark of London, Skye 51, 16m.

From La Playita, Panama to Santa Cruz, Galapagos.

February 2020 to February 2020.

Joining on the 7th February in Panama, we will cruise down to the Las Perlas islands and have a couple of days exploring before meeting up with the other WARC yachts for the sail to Galapagos. We leave 12th February and the 850nm passage should take 6 days. This is a particularly special passage as it crosses the Equator, so the crew will need to pay homage to King Neptune in the traditional style! After arriving in San Cristobal there will be plenty of time for exploring these legendary islands. A nature lover's paradise, you would expect to see sea lions, whales, giant tortoises, marine iguanas and masses of fish and sea birds. The diving, snorkeling and nature watching is world class. You can expect to swim with big mammals, sea lions hammer head sharks and even penguin. Onshore the traditional community is full of local flavour both socially and literally with fantastic fresh fish, fruit and vegetables. During our time in the islands, Skyelark will be based in 3 main harbours on the islands of Cristobal, Isabela and Santa Cruz – each one a day sail away. To protect the fragile eco system, yachts are not permitted to cruise freely. The best way to fully appreciate these islands is to take organised tours with local guides who will make sure you have the full experience. Our final destination will be Puerto Ayora, Santa Cruz, where we will rendezvous with the other WARC yachts. Spaces available on all legs of the World ARC sailing from St Lucia to Thailand: January - December 2020. Each leg around a month. See http://skye51.com for more details.
