The Regata de la Costa Brava is organized by CN Skipper i Distribución Nautica, with the organizational participation of the Club Níutic El Balís, the Club Níutic L'Pesca and the Federació Catalana de Vela

The Tramuntana Route, the emblematic regatta of the Costa Brava, is renewed in its 28th edition, adopting a new format of competition, with two stages of navigation, the usual one between Port El Balis and L'Escala and the second one with a route established from L'Escala to the Islot of Massa d'Oros, opposite Cap Creus, to return to l'Escala.

This novelty has been welcomed by the high-rise navigators, who participate in this classic navigation that runs along the northern coast of Catalonia. The organization has created two sections, a 54-mile journey that runs along the South Brava Coast, between the Balis, Blues, The Scale and another 30-mile route that aims to leave L'Scale to reach the Islot Massa d'Oros, opposite Cap Creus, to return to the base of the race at Port L'Scale. Another new development is the establishment of the Costa Brava Trophy, created for the absolute winners of the test.

The new formula of the Tramontana reinforces its will to be the Regata of the Costa Brava, focusing on the port of the Scale, the operational base and the confluence of the two routes.

The second stage will leave the CN L'Scale the following day, Saturday, July 10, after the arrival of the fleet that will spend the night on the moorings of the ampurdane club. The second race will have a round-trip in front of the Gulf of Roses, and the southern coast of Cap Creus, to reach the island of Massa D'Oros, turn it by port and return to L'Cscale.
