This well-established event starting from Gran Canaria has put the island on the world sailing map by promoting sailing.

Boats from around the world meet each year at the marina in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria to set off for the Caribbean.

The ARC Transatlantic Regatta brings large numbers of sailing boats to the capital of the Islands and provides the chance to learn about the city during a month of festivities.
