The
45th Barcelona International Boat Show
This
year has more floor space, over 175,000 visitors, over 1,600
indirect exhibitors, the largest display of yachts, boats
and accessories for sailing, fishing, surfing and scuba diving.
For the first time, there will be six special ‘theme’
areas with the names of Sea Space, Traditional Marine Space,
Fun Beach Space, Innovation Space, Fishing Space and BCNDive
Space. These will feature presentations, product demonstrations,
training courses, forums, awards ceremonies and seminars.
Young boat designers and design centres have a space to showcase
their projects in the Young Designers Island. The 2nd SNB-MDY
Awards for Technological Innovation and Yacht Design are also
being held there.
Nautical tourism will also have a major presence in the Show.
The Sea Space will host the third Nautical Tourism Booking
Exchange Market, of which one of the key objectives is to
present the main destinations and nautical products of Spain
to trade visitors and general public alike at the Boat Show.
This will take place on 6th and 7th November with tourist
promotion institutions, companies, hotels, tour operators
and nautical tourism marketing agencies all participating.
On 6th November at 11.00am, the same area will be used as
the setting for the presentation of the report on ‘Nautical
Tourism in Spain and Foreign Demand’.

The
Balearic Islands are renowned among the most
beautiful and varied sailing waters in Europe and the World.
There are four main islands, MALLORCA, MENORCA, IBIZA und
FORMENTERA. In addition, there are over 50 small islands,
mostly uninhabited. What makes these waters especially attractive
for a yachting holiday are the numerous deep inlets or "calas"
with secluded sandy beaches and crystal clear water that provide
ideal anchorages in the summer season.
Each of the islands has its own charm and character, which
is best discovered from the sea. The rough coast of Menorca,
the mountain ranges of Mallorca towering above the sea, quietly
idling Ibiza, the oft forgotten Formentera with its beaches
matched only by the Caribbean

Plan
your cruise according to your own tastes and preferences.
A hard day's sailing or contemplative bay-hopping; sparkling
night-life or quiet evenings off a lonely shore. All enhanced
by a perfect climate with force 2-4 sea-breezes that make
for excellent sailing conditions, even at the height of
summer. Severe conditions are very rare, so the Balearic
Islands are justly considered one of the few year-round
sailing paradises in Europe. |
