It’s a big challenge: swimming from one country to another! In fact, it used to be a crime before the Schengen Agreement. Nowadays it’s a romantic adventure. We’ll start at Cerbère (France), following the Cap de Cerbère and enjoying part of the Marenda Coast. The challenge will end at the lovely Portbou village, protected by a rock-cut bay.
