Spain
Spain is to be found furthest in South West Europe stretching across the Iberian Peninsula surrounded by the Mediterranean, the Atlantic Ocean and the Cantabrian Sea. Furthermore, the Balearic and Canary Islands as well as the enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla belong to Spain. The country has become in this century one of the most popular destinations – particularly because of its landscape offering almost everything - ranging from deserts and a lush vegetation, wide plains and the famous windmills and bizarrely rugged mountains, stonily aridity areas and welling water, mountains 3,000 metres in height with the sea right next to them – to steep coasts and flat sandy beaches, the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean. Spain is a country of great scenic charm accommodating innumerable and some immemorial cultural monuments. In the first place, Northern and Central Europeans were irritated by the monuments and their Moor traits which everywhere are unmistakably to be felt, especially in the South. For centuries Moors and Christians had fought for the hegemony and thus had had a formative influence on the country`s art. Spain preserves its cultural assets unlike hardly any country does. The vegetation is determined by the interaction of climate on the one hand and the different sorts of soil on the other hand – by the alpine and subalpine flora like the alpine meadow vegetation in the Pyrenees for example. Aside fir and black pine tree forests (pinus uncinata), pines, beeches and oaks are to be found in the promontory Pyrenees and the coastal mountain ranges – whereas in the dry south evergreen plants (xeromorphic), mastix trees and the European fan palm are domiciled. Typically are the stone oak forests on the coasts and the cork oak trees in the more humid regions of the Baix Emporda and La Selva.

Balearic Islands
There`s more about .............than only.
There is also the ocean.
Forget about everything you´ve ever heard about mass tourism. Discover the Balearic islands from the sea side. The islands of Majorca, Ibiza, Formentera and Cabrera offer a lot and all routes of the Mediterranean have always crossed here. Vestiges of most manifold cultures have still remained. You´ll pass lots of sleepy and secluded small anchorages on your cruise and steep coasts only accessible from the sea. Here you´ll experience your perfectly unique maritime adventure / pure / absolute / sheer sea. Yachtsmen have compared to holiday-makers the advantage of jumping into and enjoying the clear water at sea.

The Canary Islands
The Canary Archipelago lies in the North Atlantic Ocean about 1,500 kilometres southwest of the Iberian Peninsula. Of volcanic origin, the Canary Islands are a real paradise characterized by impressive geological formations and gushing vegetation with the most extraordinary beauties of indigenous species in the flora from the tertiary period. The island´s outstanding climate – warm and dry, even in winter, and the beauty of its beaches have made the islands sheer tourism centres. The Canary Archipelago comprises seven islands separated into two administrative provinces, on the one hand Santa Cruz de Teneriffa with La Palma, Gomera and Hierro and on the other hand Las Palmas with Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote.
