Costa Del Sol - A cruising perspective

Costa del Sol

We didn't spend too much time around the Costa del Sol. The things that struck me most about the Costa del Sol:

  1. It is hard to escape the apartment buildings. Even the pilot guide is full of phrases like: “aim for the 4 large apartment blocks” to make your way to the anchorage or marina. This phrase is typically not very helpful, as there are apartment buildings everywhere.
  2. We could see the snow on the peaks of the mountains peaks. I didn't expect that the SaltyPaws would ever see the snow, and now she has.
  3. The anchorages are not very sheltered, and especially when the wind has a South component, it is hard to find a sheltered anchorage.
