Cruise along Huelva's estuary on a comfortable boat and learn about the city's links with Christopher Columbus. What are you waiting for?
Wharf of the Caravels Cruise
At the selected time, we'll come and pick you up from your hotel, or we'll meet directly at the docks in Punta Umbria and we'll start this estuary cruise to the Wharf of the Caravels. We'll sail through the Odiel Marshes Biosphere Reserve and you'll be able to admire the beauty of this stunning natural environment. As we cross the estuary, we'll see the mouths of the rivers Tinto and Odiel, which form part of these unique surroundings.
As we continue sailing, you'll also see the Columbus Monument, which commemorates this historical event. Do you want to know more about Columbus' famous voyage? We'll make another stop to visit the trio of replica ships: the Pinta, Niña and Santa María at the Wharf of the Caravels. You'll be able to board these famous ships and feel like a true explorer!
We'll then return to Punta Umbria, where this Wharf of the Caravels Cruise will come to an end.
