The Pailebote Pascual Flores will continue in it’s role as one of Torrevieja’s greatest tourist and cultural ambassadors when it takes part in a number of major Maritime Festivals across both Spain and Europe in the coming months.
Visits have already been confirmed to France, Italy, Portugal and Germany as well as to the V Escala a Castellón, the V edition of Escala a Castelló, along with the ships Nao Victoria, Galeón Andalucía and the Schooner Cervantes Saavedra. It will also join the V Centenary Maritime Festival in Seville in September.
The schooner is currently harboured in it’s home port of Torrevieja where, since it’s arrival in October it has been visited by a total of 1,298 people, including individual visits and school visits. Several outings called Baptism of the Sea were also carried out, in which some 200 people have been able to enjoy sailing on the historic sailboat.
Whilst on board visitors have been able to learn about its history and the fabulous maritime heritage of Torrevieja that this ship represents, as an itinerant “ambassador” for the tourist and cultural promotion of the city, and a symbol of the classic Mediterranean sailboats.
