The Island League of Barquillos (5 m lateen sail) —also branded Liga Lanzarote La Isla Diferente (5 m)— resumes with a compact schedule in Arrecife (Marina Colón / Arrecife Bay). It’s a great chance to experience local sport and maritime culture up close.

When & where?

• Venue: Marina Colón and Arrecife Bay (seafront promenade / Avenida Marítima).
• Confirmed 2025 dates:

Regatta schedule

• Sunday 28 September — 3rd & 4th regattas.
• Sunday 5 October — 5th & 6th regattas.
• Sunday 12 October — Break (no racing).

What to look for

The 5-metre barquillo is a traditional Canarian boat with a triangular lateen sail and multigenerational local crews. Expect highly technical manoeuvres close to shore and a welcoming community preserving this living heritage.

Spectator tips

• Best viewpoints: the seafront along Marina Colón and sections of the Avenida Marítima overlooking the bay.
• Times: starts are typically late morning and wind-dependent; check same-day notices.
• Safety: follow marshals’ guidance and keep slipway/access areas clear.
