Marina Real Juan Carlos, Valencia Port

I took a nice walk along the beach of Valencia to the Marina that was redesigned specially for the 34th Americas Cup and is now the home of the European Formula 1 Grand Prix street Circuit.

The Grand Prix is on its way and the preparations are taking place, already the boundaries of the track are in place, and I even drove down the home straight and under the starting bridge!

the Marina itself is beautiful, one of, it not THE largest in Europe, with the Veles y Vents building overlooking the luxury yachts...

 

Here you can see the swing bridge that will close to join the 2 sides of the Marina during the F1 grand Prix...

Then I saw the arrival of the catamaran that offers trips out of the harbour and along the beach front, with champagne of course. The sunset trip attracts my attention, will be trying it out one day for sure...

And what sipping a nice cool lager or G&T in this trendy terrace..

It was a beautiful day out and I can fully recommend any one visiting Valencia, taking a wander around the Juan Carlos I Marina and Americas Cup Port.
