Mr. & Mrs. Gassmann are the first German residents in our wonderful Arcos Gardens residential community. Klaus and Uta first visited Arcos Gardens three months ago and they fell in love with the setting, which combines the tranquillity of the area with a strategic location, and an exceptional golf course surrounded by thousands of olive trees. They are a lovely family wishing to move here shortly to enjoy all our facilities. We are expecting to receive many German visitors in the near future because they are recommending Arcos Gardens to all their friends and partners as they are experiencing something really different.

From the Portuguese capital, ships and crew enjoyed a cruise in company to Cadiz and then another to our twin city La Coruña where the last leg of the race will start, with the fleet finishing in Antwerp (Belgium).

At 1700 metres above sea level is el Torreon in the middle of one of the most scenic natural parks in Spain, Sierra de Grazalema. A full moon and beautiful sunrise was worth the hike and the cold night! You can reach the summit of the highest mountain in the Sierra from the road between Benahoma and Grazalema. You have to pass Benahoma and as you do you will pass a camping on your left. Keep going until you reach a shaded parking area on your right. The path is on your left, and the walk takes 3 hours.
