Description
North Africa is a comprehensive pilot book published by the Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation and covers sailing along the Mediterranean coast of North Africa. The book covers Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya, as well as Ceuta and Melilla, Gibraltar, Malta, Pantelleria and the Pelagie Islands.
The guide provides detailed descriptions of harbors, marinas and anchorages, along with information on approaches, local conditions, weather and practical considerations for sailors in the region. The area offers great variations in infrastructure, climate and sailing culture, making thorough planning particularly important.
The book is based on the experience of the Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation and serves both as a planning tool before sailing and as a practical reference book along the way. North Africa is an important supplement to official nautical charts and electronic navigation systems for sailors sailing in the southern parts of the Mediterranean.
