Departure SEA 2023 Circumeuropa – Timișoara

The Circumeuropa crew is pleased to invite you to the departure event of the Sail Europe Around 2023 expedition, which will take place on Saturday, May 27th, 2023, starting at 09:30 on the banks of the Bega canal, behind the Metropolitan Cathedral of Timișoara.

SEA 2023 is the first river-sea expedition of the Romanian crew Circumeuropa (the name means navigation around Europe), which leaves from the heart of Timișoara in May 2023 and makes stops in over 20 former and current European cultural capitals to promote Timișoara in the year that the city holds the title of European Capital of Culture. The initiative belongs to Cristian Ilea, captain, president of Wild Watch Romania and director of photography. The crew that will be with him is made up of Cosmin Jitariuc, TV journalist, biologist Oana Gavriliuc, Valentin Bogdan, owner of the “Gaia” boat and Doru Creț, president of the West Yacht Club.

The expedition is an umbrella event, providing a special setting for cultural exchange with the cities it will reach and hosting city cultural ambassadors on the different sailing segments. It is also a research vehicle, as a map of water quality and micro-organisms will be made during the journey, which is an important independent research in the field of ecology.

We invite you to join us at the start, support us and listen to the story of Circumeuropa.
