Bavaria S36 HT (2021)

Our boat, BAVARIA S36 HT, allows you to enjoy comfortable navigation during the 12 months of the year, as it is conveniently equipped with a cabin without feeling "closed in".

Its length of 11 metres, 12 including its large bathing platform at the stern, provides adequate space for the maximum of 9 crew members allowed, in addition to the skipper.

The length of the Galician coast is 2,555 kilometres, made up of 1,659 km of coastal perimeter, 432 km of islands and 464 km of marshes.

With its islands, some of which are inhabited, such as Arosa Island (4,958 inhabitants in 2018), A Toxa and Ons, Galicia is the autonomous community with the longest coastline, including archipelagos, almost tripling the length of coastline of the second largest peninsular community, Andalusia. The length of its coastline, including islands and marshes, is greater than the distance between La Coruña and the capital of the Czech Republic, Prague (2,396 km).

The province of La Coruña, with its 956 km of coastal perimeter (not counting its islands), is the one with the most kilometres of coastline in all of Spain, even counting any of the Canary Islands or, individually, the Balearic Islands.

Geographically, one of the peculiarities of Galicia is the presence of the rías, indentations in the coast where the sea flooded river valleys due to a drop in land level (relative rise in sea level). The estuaries are traditionally divided into Rías Altas and Rías Bajas, according to their position in relation to Cape Finisterre as the westernmost point of Galicia.

Legend tells us that the Rías Bajas were formed when God, on the seventh day after Creation, sat down to rest and enjoy his work in the most beautiful place, resting his hand in such a way that his fingers gave rise to the five estuaries between Corcubión (thumb) and Vigo (little finger).

The Rías Altas are those of Ribadeo, Foz, Vivero and El Barquero, in the Cantabrian Sea (that is, to the east of Estaca de Bares as the northernmost point of Galicia), as well as Ortigueira, Cedeira, Ferrol, Betanzos, La Coruña, Corme y Lage and Camariñas, in the Atlantic Ocean.

The Rías Bajas, all on the Atlantic coast, are larger. Listed (from north to south) are Muros and Noya, Arosa, Pontevedra and Vigo.

Between the mouths of the Eo and Miño rivers, the wonder of completely different landscapes opens up, bathed by the Cantabrian Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, between the rugged Rías Altas and the calm Rías Bajas, which has an effect on their different climates, species, and even shellfish.

Science, more prosaic, has its own point of view about the origin of Galicia. It explains that the Galician lands are the oldest on the peninsula and that various movements of the plates that form them made the river valleys penetrate deep into the sea, giving rise to the Rías. This circumstance allows, contrary to what one might imagine, that the shelter formed by the relief of the coast allows sailing all year round.

The Gulf of Ártabro is the name given to the estuaries of La Coruña, Betanzos, Ares and Ferrol. It coincides with the end of the Costa de la Muerte and the beginning of the Rías Altas and corresponds to what the Greco-Roman geographers Strabo, Pomponius Mela and Pliny designated as Portus Magnus Artabrorum.

Insurance, fuel for crossings within the Ría de Sada and/or Ares and final cleaning are included in the price.
