Sailing the Bay of Biscay from France to Spain | 52 Hours at Sea with Our Dog

After three months of sailing from our hometown, Stockholm, down the Atlantic coast of Europe, it’s finally time for our longest, and most feared, passage yet - crossing the Bay of Biscay. ⛵️ The Bay of Biscay has a reputation for being unpredictable, with strong Atlantic swells and sudden weather changes. It’s a crossing that truly demands respect. 🌊 We welcome aboard our crew for this passage, Erik’s parents aka https://www.youtube.com/@bushpoint and set sail from Camaret-sur-Mer, France, heading more than 52 hours across the sea to reach Gijón, Spain, with our brave little sausage dog Nora onboard. 🐾 It’s our longest passage so far, and between fever, cold nights, and little sleep, this crossing definitely tests both us and our boat. But with calm weather, dolphins joining our sail, and a long-awaited boat renaming at the end, it turns into a journey we’ll never forget. 💛 📍 Route: Camaret-sur-Mer (France) to Gijón (Spain) ⛵ Distance sailed: 1967 Nautical Miles 🧑‍✈️ Crew: Erik, Linn & Nora the dachshund If you're new to our channel, welcome! 🩵 We’re Linn and Erik, a Swedish couple in our late 20s who quit our jobs, rented out our apartment, and set off to sail from Stockholm to the Mediterranean together with our sausage dog. We started the journey in our unique 33 foot sailboat from 1980, which we sold in Kiel, and luckily one week after we bought a new boat, a Bavaria 37, from 2000 more suited for our adventures ahead. 🔔 If you love real-life sailing stories and adventures where we learn as we go, don’t forget to subscribe and join us on the journey! 🎬 Check out our playlists: https://www.youtube.com/@SailAndDoxie/playlists 📱 Follow us on Instagram for more updates: / sailanddoxie   #sailing #sailinglife #sailboat #adventure #boatlife #lifestyle #sailors
