Vela Baja & COVID-19

There’s no doubt that for most, 2020 has been a challenging year.
We have all had to adapt to new models for social conduct – some of which are legally mandated whilst others generally adopted by the majority as sound practice.
Vela Baja is no different in this respect and so we set out here our provisional response to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic.

We look forward to seeing you soon, but until then

Be safe and be well

Your Vela Baja Team
