Mediterranean Spain Costas del Azahar, Dorada and Brava

This new edition of Mediterranean Spain - Costas del Azahar, Dorada and Brava is now in the same format as the RCC Pilotage Foundation's other pilots for Spain. The coverage has been extended slightly so that the southern ports of Javea and Denia are now included which is handy for yachts leaving the mainland coast for the Balearics.

This new edition contains extensive revisions. The aerial photography has been updated and several new yacht harbours are now included, amongst these are the alterations at Valencia associated with the America's Cup. The Spanish Mediterranean coast has seen considerable development over recent years and many harbours have been altered to provide more berths for yachts, and where change is still in progress the author has added illustrations to show the likely final configuration of breakwaters and pontoons.

Costas del Azahar, Dorada and Brava remains the only detailed pilot for the northern part of the Spanish Mediterranean coast running up to the border with France. It covers a varied cruising area that includes the low lying Ebro delta and the rugged Costa Brava. In between are several great cities including Barcelona, the Catalan capital.
