Edgar Martínez founded the non-profit association Velas por Alzheimer in Barcelona to provide free maritime experiences for individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and their caregivers.5:17 The initiative operates along the coast of Catalonia, utilizing traditional Mediterranean vessels, 12-meter sailboats like Beneteau and Bavaria models, and catamarans for participants with limited mobility.11:34 Activities range from guided tours of the Barcelona Maritime Museum and local fish auctions to sailing excursions and regattas.16:27 In 2022, the organization facilitated outings for over 1,150 people, with demand growing significantly for the following year.8:01 The program collaborates with local Alzheimer’s associations and sailing schools to secure discounted or donated vessel access, ensuring all services remain free of charge.18:29 Observations suggest that the sensory experience of the sea—the breeze, sound, and tranquility—creates lasting positive memories for participants, even those in intermediate stages of the disease.24:33 The association is currently preparing a study with the University of Gerona to formally evaluate these therapeutic benefits.24:51
