‘Catalonia, a land of the sea’ is the new campaign to promote Catalonia as the ideal setting for live nautical adventures. An adventure can be exceptional, original and certainly unforgettable. In Catalonia you will have unique experiences at sea or in the various rivers and wetlands spread throughout the territory.
Furthermore, between August and October 2024, Barcelona will host the 37th edition of the America’s Cup, the most important regatta in the world. It is the 3rd sport competition with the highest economic impact on the host country, after the Olympic Games and the World Cup.
The great added value of water sports holidays in Catalonia is, without doubt, the nature, the singularity and the diversity of the coast, which offers a thousand and one possibilities for leisure and relaxation. From the Costa Brava to the Terres de l’Ebre, you will find nautical adventures only suitable for daredevils and seekers of new sensations.
The sea is part of Catalonia. Calm and rough waters. Miles and miles of coastline. Filled with passion and stories to live.
