Cruising Western Mediterranean
The Western Med is the Mediterranean most sailors picture: the Balearics' turquoise calas, the Côte d'Azur, Corsica and Sardinia's granite coves. It is also genuinely exposed — the Gulf of Lion's Mistral can blow 40 knots for days, and the popular calas of Mallorca and Menorca shoal fast. This region runs from the Strait of Gibraltar across Spain, the Balearics, southern France, Corsica and western Sardinia.
