SUNRISE CRUISE

SUNRISE CRUISES start at varying hours and depending on the season will vary by 1,5 hours. The earliest sunrise is late May and early June at some minutes past 07.00. The latest is at the end of December and early January at around 08.30.

When you are safely on board we will head straight out to sea where you, when settled and comfortable, will be served a welcome drink, coffee or tea, and a snack. After the sun is up, and the fresh air has built up an apetite, we will serve you a lunch pack which you can enjoy in the saloon, in the cockpit at the Captain's table or on deck by yourself, giving you time to enjoy the tranquility of the sea.

On the brightest days we can guarantee you spectacular views of the meeting of three countries and two continents. Spain and Gibraltar in Europe and Morocco on the northern coast of Africa.

If time permits, before bringing Tealie back to her berth we will take a ten minute detour and follow the canal to the inner parts of Sotogrande marina, past the luxurious and colourful apartments at the frontline of the canal.

MOTION SICKNESS

Motion sickness is the worst, especially wobbling on a sailboat with no immediate escape. However, if you tend to get motion sick, don't worry, there are some precautions to take before and during the trip.

Before the trip

• Check with your doctor or pharmasist which medicines or patches to be recommended. The adhesive patch is put behind your ear a few hours before boarding. We have pills and wrist bracelets if needed.
• Buy a pack of lozenges, preferably something with ginger.
• Do not eat a big meal before boarding.
• Lay of alcohol, caffeine and drink lots of water.
• Bring a distraction - like music with headphones.

During the trip

• If you brought music, listen to it as it might add some distraction.
• Find a better spot. Many find relief by taking the helm.
• Lie down if you can, keep your head still, shut your eyes or follow the horizon. Whatever is best for you.
• We will provide something salty, like chips or crackers, green apples, i.e. Granny Smith, anything with ginger, i.e. lozenges.
• Drink ginger ale or ginger tea, Coca-Cola, the real stuff.

If nothing of the above helps, we will give you a bucket and head back to Sotogrande.
