Regatta "La Ruta de la Sal"

Departures from Barcelona and Dénia.

From April 13 to 16, coinciding with Easter, a new edition of the regatta for sailing cruisers La Ruta de la Sal will take place. This event remembers the trips to the island to collect salt, an important source of income for the Pitiüses until the arrival of tourism: it was called the "white gold".

The regatta starts from two different ports, the Reial Club Marítim de Barcelona and the Club Nàutic de Dénia, and both end in the port of Eivissa. The route from Barcelona is free, but the route from Denia to the harbour of Eivissa town, is keeping the islands of Formentera and Tagomago on port side. This year the list of accepted inscription includes over 300 boats and 2,200 crew members.
