You step from the harbor onto warm teak as the Aphrodite casts off; the Atlantic breathes cool across your face and the schooner heels gently, sails breathing with the wind. Offshore, the volcanic flank of Jandía unspools in shades of rust and basalt, while the water below dares you with clear, shallow bays that beg a swim.
