Santa Cruz de Tenerife (ES) - Santa Cruz de Tenerife (ES)

01 February - 07 February 2020

Tenerife round trip. This is the last chance of the season to explore Canary Islands from the board of Morgenster. Step on board in Tenerife and take course for one of the other islands, depending on the wind. Enjoy the sailing, as well as visiting exotic places. Meet new people, switch off your phone, let the watches dictate the rythm of your days. Learn to sail a 100-years old Tall Ship, dare to climb the mast for an unforgettable view, enjoy the atmosphere on board and discover new places. Open to all Windseekers aged 15 and over.

Ports

Santa Cruz de Tenerife is the shared capital of the Canary Islands, together with Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The central square Plaza de España is a real eye-catcher, situated between the ocean and the old, bustling city centre. Lose yourself in the crowded alleys, find a spot on one of the terraces, or leave town and discover the rugged volcanic landscape. The museum of Nature and Man is worth a visit. Chances are you’ll find pilot whales in the waters around Tenerife, so keep an eye out!
