The late-afternoon light flattens the city and the sea answers, a cool shoulder of wind urging the sails as you slip out of Port Olímpic. From the rail you watch glass towers and palm-lined promenades shrink into a skyline lit from behind; the sea itself seems to lean toward the shore, eager to show you the city from its sharpest angle.
