It's a long day and a lumpy sail this close to shore...and all that stands between us and our anchorage is a very busy harbour!

Sailing the Coast to Avoid Orcas! - Sailing from Spain to Tunisia, Part 12 | DrakeParagon Sailing
It is an early morning aboard Paragon, but we have a long sail ahead of us...mainly because we have to stay so close to shore to avoid Orcas. But being this close to shore had its disadvantages which we discover all too soon!

This Broke...And I'm Okay With That? Sailing from Spain to Tunisia, Part 10 | DrakeParagon Sailing

Land Ho! We Arrive in Portugal - Sailing from Spain to Tunisia, Part 5 | DrakeParagon Sailing

Cooking While Sailing Offshore - Sailing from Spain to Tunisia, Part 4 | DrakeParagon Sailing
