Copa Del Rey — Mediterranean regatta with royal charm

The Copa del Rey race is one of the most beautiful and super-competitive sailing regattas in the Mediterranean. The regatta is part of the Grand Slam series. This elite Spanish regatta traditionally gathers professional yachtsmen from all over the Mediterranean on the most modern yachts. The number of participants in the regatta is increasing every year — in 2019, more than 150 crews took part in the regatta. Beginners can take part in the regatta as part of experienced crews.

The regatta was founded in 1982 and is held annually at the Real Club Náutico de Palma yacht club, located in the heart of the bay of Palma de Mallorca. Copa Del Rey is under the patronage of the King of Spain. The king himself and his immediate family also take part in the regatta on equal terms with other crews. So the regatta is really royal!

Each year, elite yachts participate in the regatta: TP 52, GC32, Club Swan 50, Swan 45, Club Swan 42, X-35, J-80, IRC, ORC.

The Royal Yacht Club of the city of Palma organizes an exciting program every evening, so you will have the opportunity to relax and have fun after a competition day.

    The regatta will take place in the bay of Palma on Mallorca.

    Palma de Mallorca will be interesting not only for those who like beach vacations. It also has many natural and historical attractions. Mallorca is a place with a mixture of cultures, so here you can find everything from Gothic cathedrals to Arabic-style houses.

    The Cathedral of St. Mary is the main cathedral not only of Palma, but of all the Balearic Islands. This is a wonderful example of Gothic architecture. They began to build the cathedral in the 14th century, and in our times, the building was rebuilt several times, and the famous Antonio Gaudi worked on the interior.

    Bellver Castle is a few kilometers from Palma. This is the only round Gothic structure in Spain. The castle stands on a hill and a beautiful panorama of the bay opens from it.

    Almudain Palace is the oldest royal palace in Spain. It used to be an Arab fortress and the palace of the Moorish viziers. Now, it is the residence of the Spanish king in Mallorca. Both the courtyard and the royal palace are open for visitors.

    Art lovers must visit the Es Baluard Museum of Modern Art. The museum is situated in the building of the ancient 16th century bastion, which has been restored. In the museum, you will find works of art by artists such as Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Joan Miró and others. A beautiful view of the city opens from the museums’ observation deck.
