We take a break from sailing and head inland from our marina in Motril to explore the historic city of Granada.

Stepping Back in Time on Richard’s 60th Birthday – Exploring Salobreña – Sailing Helios S04E29

It’s Richard’s 60th birthday and we’re spending a few days at Motril Marina on Spain’s Costa Tropical. We borrow bikes from the marina and ride through the countryside to the historic hill town of Salobreña. Built on the slopes of a rocky promontory, Salobreña’s old town rises above sugar-cane fiel...

We Didn’t Plan to Stop in Canet – Here’s Why We Had To – Sailing Helios S04E25

We didn’t plan to come back to Canet-en-Roussillon. A few weeks ago the plan was to return west through the Balearic Islands.
