Trip description:
Embark on an extraordinary five-day voyage aboard the historic Santa Maria Manuela and sail from the fantastic Andalusian port city of Málaga to the modern city of Valencia.
This hands-on sailing adventure offers a unique opportunity to experience the beauty of the Mediterranean and learn the craft of seafaring aboard a traditional Portuguese tall ship.
In Málaga, the heart of Spain's Costa del Sol, a visit to the historic Alcazaba is an absolute must.
This Moorish fortress, with its lush gardens and impressive views over the city and harbour, offers an insight into the region's rich history.
Directly below, the Roman theatre lends another facet of ancient charm to Málaga's cultural wealth.
The bustling harbour district "Muelle Uno" is a lively place to relax over a drink, browse through boutiques or let your gaze drift across the Mediterranean.
Art lovers shouldn't miss the Picasso Museum, dedicated to the city's most famous son.
For beach lovers, Málaga's sun-blessed stretches of coast – such as Playa de la Malagueta – are the ideal spot for a relaxing afternoon.
Don't forget to enjoy the local cuisine either: "Espeto de sardinas" – sardines grilled on the beach – offer an authentic foretaste of Andalusia's flavours.
The captain welcomes you "Welcome aboard the Santa Maria Manuela!"
Relaxed time in the evenings on board
As we set an easterly course along the Costa del Sol, you'll experience the serenity of life at sea – with time to relax on deck or work together with our experienced crew on navigation and sail handling.
For five days, the Santa Maria Manuela traverses the glittering waters of the western Mediterranean.
During the passage, the crew invites you to take an active part in sailing the ship: hoist and trim the sails, take the helm, attend knot-tying workshops or even climb the mast.
Whether you want to get hands-on or prefer to relax and watch the activity – there's room on board for active learning as well as quiet moments of reflection.
Upon arrival in the vibrant Spanish coastal city of Valencia, there's an opportunity to explore the futuristic "City of Arts and Sciences".
This architectural masterpiece, with its elegant white structures and tranquil water features, offers a glimpse into the modern side of the city.
After going ashore, a stroll through the old town and a visit to the impressive Valencia Cathedral – home to the legendary Holy Grail – are ideal for rounding off this unforgettable maritime experience perfectly.
Don't forget to enjoy the local cuisine either: "Espeto de sardinas" – sardines grilled on the beach – offer an authentic foretaste of Andalusia's flavours.
Whether you want to fully immerse yourself in the rhythm of sailing or simply enjoy the views and the sea breeze – this voyage is a unique and unforgettable way to travel between two famous Mediterranean destinations.
weather conditions
Towards the end of March, the weather in the western Mediterranean is typically mild and pleasant; daytime temperatures on the route from Málaga to Valencia usually range between 17°C and 22°C.
You can expect plenty of sunshine, punctuated by occasional cloudy spells and the possibility of light spring showers.
At sea it can feel cooler due to the breeze – especially in the mornings and evenings – so we recommend bringing layers and a light, windproof jacket.
Embrace the adventure of traditional seafaring and experience a very special sailing voyage aboard the "Santa Maria Manuela"!
And if you have any questions: we look forward to hearing from you 🙂
