Sailing voyage Z08-22: Crossing bay of Biscay

Z08-22: Ocean passage Bay of Biscay (FRA-SPA: 380 mijl)

From La Coruna we will sail over the infamous Bay of Biscay to France. This passage crossing is on the bucket list of every European sailor. The weather will ultimately determine our exact route, but the plan is to do this in legs.

The plan is to sail to the charming Ria de Cedeira to anchor on the first day, so that everyone can get used to the ship. Then we cross over to the Spanish coast, direction Brest. If the weather cooperates, it will take about 3 nights of sailing in a watch system, the exact arrival port will be determined by the wind.

To be able to anticipate for possible bad weather, a lack of wind or head wind, we have elongated this sailing voyage. If everything goes as planned, we will have the opportunity to sail to Camaret sur mer after crossing the Bay of Biscay. A beautiful and atmospheric harbour to recover and stretch our legs. We will end in Brest where we will have a dinner.

A challenging sailing passage with beautiful sun and moon rises/ sets. With a bit of luck we can enjoy beautiful starry skies and / or a luninous sea and dolphins. This sailing voyage is a nice combination of making miles, sailing through the night, but also with a bit of time ashore to enjoy and to recover.

The daily sailing distances are between 25 and 250 miles.
The above schedule is subject to weather, wind and tide.
