Qué cubre este vídeo
A 34-hour passage from Vitória to the Abrolhos Archipelago requires careful timing to ensure a daylight arrival at the unfamiliar destination. The crew of the catamaran Califa plans the departure for 05:00 to avoid navigating the approach in darkness and to limit the transit to a single overnight stay. During the crossing, the skipper utilizes radar to monitor weather patterns, specifically identifying cumulonimbus clouds and tracking their movement vectors to adjust the vessel's course and avoid storm cells. Upon arrival at the archipelago, the crew experiences significant rolling at the initial anchorage, necessitating a relocation to a more sheltered spot. Activities at the site include guided land tours of Ilha Santa Bárbara to observe nesting seabirds like the brown booby and frigatebird, as well as snorkeling in the coral reefs. The crew notes that while the marine life is abundant, the water temperatures are cold. The visit concludes with a climb to the historic lighthouse on the island before the crew prepares for the next leg of their journey toward Salvador.
