Valencia sailing comp 'thrills' Catherine Zeta-Jones, Prince Albert
28 June 2007

Hollywood golden couple Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas were joined by Prince Albert of Monaco in admiring the proceedings of an international sailing competition in the Spanish coastal city of Valencia.

The Douglases are no strangers to Spain, often frequenting their holiday home on the island of Majorca when they need to get away from the glitz and glamour of the film industry. They are often pictured enjoying the sun and sand at their cliff-top villa s'Estaca, which was formerly owned by the Archduke Ludwig Salvator of Austria.

However, the Hollywood royals spent the week with real-life royals, as they watched the world's most challenging sailing competition, the America's Cup, from a luxurious VIP boat.

Prince Albert of Monaco, who is a keen sports enthusiast, was among those invited to observe the race. He is the head of the House of Grimaldi and has been ruler of the principality of Monaco since 2005.

Valencia is the third largest city in Spain and is situated on the Costa del Azahar, in the south east of the country. If you'd like to see this destination for yourself, use Opodo's travel search engine to find flights, hotels, holidays and car hire worldwide.
