Description
To travel from the Spanish Atlantic coast to Portugal, there is no way around the ATL2. Portugal has recently established itself more and more as a water sports destination, as the year-round winds are a good precondition for exciting trips. Even if the centers of yachting are more around Lisbon, there are enough marinas for stopovers in other cities, such as in Porto, Figueira da Foz or Aveiro. Attention: Note the tidal range, it is often between 3-4 m. As soon as you have reached the Algarve, it becomes more protected and you sway yourself in the protection of lagoons. From there it is not far to one of the busiest waterways in the world – the Strait of Gibraltar – to get to the Mediterranean.
Thanks to the clear structure the skipper can quickly find approaches, harbours and anchorages and is informed of important navigational details that also appear in the NV Charts app. The chart series impresses with its optimal scales and balanced sheet cuts.
Our recommendation
As a further recommendation on this chart set we advise you to go for the ATL3 which will accompany you to the Azores Madeira or the Canary Islands. If the journey is to go further into the Mediterranean the ES3 is the right map set. Heading north the ATL1 can also take you to the Bay of Biscay and northern Spain.
