Sea Fruits: sailing along the Costa Brava and unveiling new flavors

24/01/2018

Like video killed the radio star, steam engines killed the magic of sailing catching the power of wind. Being rushed by time in our daily routines, we will certainly appreciate the pleasant experience of sailing along the Mediterranean by vintage vessel. The Leafar, built in 1915, is one of the few still sailing exactly the same way as in ancient times for you to feel like a real mariner. Departing from Palamos port, famous for the outstanding quality of catches brought from the sea since Roman times, you will explore the area with the company of a professional who will explain about the Costa Brava, the story of the vessel and how sailboats actually work. 

Under a shell covered with sharp barbs, the sea urchin hides an orange secret that will undoubtedly delight everyone. This gastronomic experience will satisfy your taste buds with the deep umami flavor of the sea urchin. February and March are optimal months for this type of animal, where its fishing is not harming the species and where the meat is more mature and tasty.
