Stormy Nights & Safe Harbours | Sailing Spain’s Coast to the Ebro Delta | Sailing Helios S03E43

In this episode of Sailing Helios, we leave the marina and continue our journey down the Spanish coast. With very little wind, much of the passage becomes a long motor-sail, reminding us that cruising isn’t always perfect sailing. We discover a series of beautiful, sheltered anchorages near the Ebro River Delta, giving us protection from swell and a rare peaceful night’s sleep. But calm conditions don’t last long… As storms roll in, we find ourselves caught in the middle of a civil defence weather warning. With thunder and lightning surrounding us, we make a tense entrance into La Ràpita Marina just in time to take shelter. For the next two days, relentless rain keeps us pinned down. When the skies finally clear, we head into town to reprovision, regroup, and prepare Helios for the next leg west along the Spanish coast. This episode shows the real side of life aboard — changing weather, tough decisions, safe anchorages, and the constant balance between adventure and caution. ⚓ In this episode: Coastal sailing in Spain Motor-sailing in light winds Ebro Delta anchorages Storm sailing & marina shelter Thunderstorms at sea Life aboard in bad weather Reprovisioning & passage prep If you enjoy honest sailing adventures, real cruising life, and Mediterranean exploration, don’t forget to subscribe and join us on the journey.
