This will be a mix of offshore and coastal sailing. We will visit charming Portugal towns and Galicia's magical fjords (Rias). There are also a handful of beautiful islands that are part of the Natural Park of Galicia. The voyage is an excellent training opportunity in tidal waters, very useful if you plan to take RYA examinations in the future. Anticipated route: Vigo - Sam Adrian de Cobres - Cangas - Cies Island - Combarro - Ons Island - Pobra do Caramiñal - Salvora Island - Baiona - Nazaré - Porto You will be an active member of the crew and we will provide practical training on board so that you can learn as much or as little as you want. Skipper is RYA Yachtmaster Ocean commercially endorsed and RYA Yachtmaster Cruising Instructor. It will be an excellent opportunity to gain offshore miles, practice navigation, pilotage, and COLREG. The boat is rented and we share the contribution to cover the expenses. Please find more details on my website: https://bluewatermiles.com/routes/galicia-leg1/
