If the question is how we know summer has begun, the answer is simple: Amancio Ortega has gotten onto his yacht

Amancio Ortega was seen sailing the Ría de Aldán in his yacht Valoria B, accompanied by Flora Pérez and a small group of friends.

The 47.3-meter yacht is based in Sanxenxo and is typically used for short, discreet trips along the Galician coast.

The outing once again marks the unofficial start of summer in Galicia.

The piece also highlights the yacht’s features, cost, and Ortega’s recurring connection to summer boating in the region.
