The Last Days of Summer

Anchored in Costa Brava: The Last Days of Summer

Anchored in Costa Brava, Spain, we soaked in what felt like the final days of summer. It was mid-November when we recorded this video, having just left Port Saint Louis du Rhône, escaping the heavy winds that were now approaching our side of the Bay of Lyon. We hurried to sail further southwest, eventually finding a beautiful little bay—calm, secluded, and the perfect spot to stay for a few days.

The water was crystal clear and still warm… well, warm enough for a quick swim at least! Just about 20 nautical miles east of our anchorage, strong winds were whipping up waves, but we remained in relative calm, making time for work and some great hikes. And let me tell you—when Nike plans a hike, boredom is never an option.

Luckily, we both lean towards the adventurous side of life.

Hope you enjoy this little mix of sailing and land exploration.

Take care and all the best,

Floh
