The free activity combines sailing with expert skippers and a visit to the restaurant deck at the Port Olímpic 

Port Olímpic is holding the first edition of “Dijous de Vent”, a beginners’ regatta open to the public and aimed at bringing sailing to new audiences. The first edition was held on Thursday, with 35 participants chosen in a draw. 

The activity is aimed at complete beginners, as well as professionals and sailing enthusiasts, offering the chance to spend an afternoon as part of the crew on one of the boats operated by nautical companies at the Port Olímpic. This first session was led by Masnavega with the active participation of the Business Yacht Club, Escola Port, Neptuno, BDA Sailing, Sailing Experience and Wind Charters. Back at the port, participants also enjoyed some refreshments at Casa Carmen, located on the Balcó Gastronòmic restaurant deck. 

The activity, which will be held again in July, September and October, is part of the Port Olímpic’s commitment to making sailing more accessible to the people of Barcelona and creating community through shared experiences at sea. 

These public regattas are completely free of charge and are managed with a draw system, through the Port Olímpic’s Instagram page (@portolimpicbarcelona).
