This experience, in a nutshell

A week on a sailing boat among the most beautiful islands of Sicily


The Aeolian Islands are a group of 7 islands and islets scattered north of the northeastern coast of Sicily. They are a cultural and environmental heritage of rare beauty, envied and admired by the whole world.


The navigation allows you to visit a different island every day: LIPARI, PANAREA, STROMBOLI, SALINA, VULCANOALICUDI, and FILICUDI, with stops for lunch and nights in the roadstead with the possibility of going ashore every evening to experience island life at 360 degrees both day and night.


In this itinerary, for those who wish, there is a climb to the volcano of STROMBOLI to admire the explosions on the crater and its sunset over the sea. In SALINA we will visit one of the most famous wineries where we will taste white wines from Salina and Malvasia in a beautiful Aeolian-style garden. VULCANO, FILICUDI AND ALICUDI will be discovered through suggestive walks: climbing the crater, walking among the prickly pears and getting lost in the impervious mule tracks.

Leonardo e Alessandro sono attenti a ogni dettaglio per rendere l'intera esperienza piacevole e senza alcun problema per tutto l'equipaggio! Abbiamo visitato posti bellissimi e trascorso notti in rada indimenticabili. Senza dimenticare le nuotate la mattina appena svegli e i pasti cucinati a bordo che sono stati ampiamente sopra le mie aspettative! Leonardo dà anche ottimi consigli su dove cenare durante le notti in porto! Torneremo sicuramente nei prossimi anni a veleggiare su Kalekoy! Santo&Giulia
