We sailors still enjoy the sky in all its intensity.
In this night sailing trip we will sail away from the coast, we will get comfortable on deck and we will learn to recognize the stars.
You will discover spectacular corners of the sky with binoculars.
You will also try out a sextant to guide the navigation.
And a glass of cava will not be missing while you enjoy the views and listen to the mythological stories that have given name to the stars.
The Starlight monitor will help you explore the most beautiful corners of the sky with professional binoculars.
You will be taken by boat skippers and Starlight monitors.
They will teach you curiosities about the sky and astronavigation.
Let us take you on a journey into the past with our virtual reality experience.
Our ship will travel back to the 16th century to discover how sailors used the stars to calculate their position and guide their ships.

You will learn to recognize the stars and constellations with the help of a planisphere.
In addition, you will discover how to use the sextant to guide navigation.
We will move away from light pollution to find the darkest skies.
Of course, there will be time to relax and admire the Milky Way with a good cava.

Our astronavigators are here to make your experience unforgettable.
We will help you understand what is included in the price, what the boats are like, how the astronomical activities work and any other questions you may have.
On each short or long experience page, you have the information and cancellation policy specific to it.
If you still have doubts, you can contact us and we will help you to solve them.
All you have to do is pre-book your activity and fill in the contact information required on the screen.
Shortly, the person in charge of the chosen activity will contact you and will indicate the method of payment (usually by bank transfer or bizum).
Our experiences are designed for anyone with an interest and no sailing or astronomy experience is required.
Our instructors and skippers love to share their knowledge with all those who visit us.
Before the activity you will receive a voucher with all the details of your reservation and with the main tips both for sailing and for making observations.
It will depend a lot on the time of the year and the area where you are going to do your activity, but keep in mind that as a general rule, in the sea even in summer it is always advisable to wear several clothes and if we are hot we will remove layers.
Always take some warm clothes for sailing!
The same thing happens when we do observations at night, that although they are months of heat, at night temperatures drop quite a lot and it is preferable to be prepared with a good jacket, a hat to cover our head and even gloves.
Of course.
It will depend on the availability in each case but it is very common to reserve a boat for a family or group exclusively.
All our boats are duly registered in List 6 and are covered by Civil Liability Insurance and SOVI (Compulsory Travelers Insurance).
Insurance to cover the typical case of not coming because my grandfather got sick is another matter.
In such cases, you have to take out personal insurance.
If you tend to get seasick, tell your skipper and he/she will give you some recommendations to avoid seasickness as much as possible, although they are not infallible since each body reacts differently to this situation.
Although it depends on each territory and especially on weather conditions and sea conditions, the standard is approximately 1 hour of navigation and 2 hours of observation on land.
Prior to departure we will send you a Voucher with all the details of your reservation: meeting point, what is included in your trip… and the telephone number of the skipper or instructor.
Depending on the geographical area you are in, it is likely that on trips away from the coast you may lose mobile coverage.
