THE BLUE ADVENTURE BEGINS
You can start the day with our active activities. Sign up!
With the aim of activating body and mind from the first hour, two activities are offered open to congress participants and attendees:
- Yoga at Plaza del Mar (session guided by certified instructors)
- Walk through El Toyo: walk or gentle run along coastal trails, with landscape interpretation
Both activities are designed to promote a healthy, conscious and sustainable start to the day.
Once body and mind are activated, our journey will begin. We will start strong with an inspiring keynote, round tables, side events and the institutional inauguration, and we will immerse ourselves in the themes of our Tourism, Water and Blue Municipalities and Territories tracks.
On the 19th, the Blue Party will take place at 8:00 PM at the Barceló Hotel, a vibrant experience where the color blue sets the tone and networking is the heart of the night.
The Blue Party is more than a party, it is the meeting point for professionals looking to expand their connections in a relaxed, modern environment full of networking in the Tourism and Blue Economy sector.
