Magellan’s journey began in **Sanlúcar de Barrameda**, a charming port town in southern Spain, on *September 20, 1519*. Standing by the river today, it’s incredible to imagine that this peaceful spot was once the launch point of a voyage that would circle the world for the first time. For travelers, Sanlúcar still holds that spirit of adventure — with its old harbor views, cobbled streets, and a glass of local Manzanilla sherry to enjoy by the water. If you’re curious to follow his path, the “On Magellan’s Route” itinerary on Pinerary lets you experience that same sense of discovery — retracing the places, seas, and moments that made Magellan’s voyage one of the greatest adventures in history.
