This experience, in a nutshell

Adventure and relaxation on a sailing boat to discover the beautiful Tuscan Archipelago among wild islands and pristine beaches. Pushed by the wind to the south we reach the islands of Elba, Giglio, Giannutri to go up north and discover the Argentario archipelago and then skirt the Uccellina Park up to the beautiful Castiglione della Pescaia.

We will go ashore for excursions and guided tours, for cultural and naturalistic events, dances and tastings of local food.

We will also sail into the night to fully experience the typical magic of a sailing trip under the spectacle of a starry sky never seen before and dolphins that, following the bright trails of plankton, will guide us to new places to discover.

INGREDIENTS OF EVERY DAY FOR NEW STORIES TO TELL will be:

games, music, friendships, sun, joy and relaxation, fresh fish, marine activities and relaxing sailings along cliffs overlooking the sea, caves and paradisiacal beaches.

TO ENRICH THE EXPERIENCE IN A COMPLETELY OPTIONAL WAY:

- BASIC COURSE TO LEARN HOW TO SAIL A BOAT

- ON-BOARD VIDEO-PHOTO CONTEST TO WIN A NEW WEEKLY ITINERARY!

N.B. The program is sensitive to the will of the crew for any excursions to be decided unanimously such as visits to the Island of Pianosa or Montecristo.

Ottimo skipper, ottima compagnia e ottima vacanza. Luca è uno skipper molto competente e sempre disponibile ad assecondare le richieste degli ospiti, ponendosi sempre con grandi sorrisi giovialità. Se volete fare vacanze in Toscana, lui è sicuramente uno dei migliori, disposto ad insegnare anche nozioni di vela.

Gruppo e posti meravigliosi, peccato per la barca che necessitava di manutenzione, da rivedere anche la pulizia che è la cosa più importante.

Esperienza positiva relativa al gruppo e ai posti incantevoli che l’Isola riesce a regolare che sono stati “ L’ ALBERO “ portante di questo viaggio. La barca lasciava molto a desiderare riguardo pulizia trovata nel momento dell’imbarco senza parlare degli innumerevoli disagi avuti a bordo. Tengo a precisare che non sia stata la mia prima esperienza in barca a vela , quindi pur essendo in possesso di tantissimo spirito di adattamento ( avuto da tutti i compagni di viaggio) tengo a precisare che dormire con la puzza di gasolio in cabina ( cito solo uno dei tanti disagi avuti) non è il top! Forse sarebbe il caso che la barca venga revisionata 😉

L'aspettativa di questo "seducente" weekend in barca a vela è stata disattesa: all'ultimo minuto Luca si è rimpiazzato con un amico skipper, poco male perché ci siamo trovati bene, ma pensavo di navigare con lui. In effetti sin dall'inizio la comunicazione non è stata lineare, dal sito non si palesava la remota possibilità di cambiamenti, al contrario Luca si è presentato bene! La barca pur essendo strutturalmente vecchia è valida, ma non ha rispettato i requisiti che Luca ha richiesto all'equipaggio in chat: pulizia e ordine. Si è presentato un problema costante in sentina, per cui a tratti c'erano delle folate di odore di miscela e il sostituto skipper ogni poco era a svuotare la sentina. Lo spirito di adattamento dell'equipaggio (9 in tutto), ha reso l'esperienza unica, ed io di buon grado ho dormito nel sacco a pelo nel pozzetto sotto un cielo stellato, peccato che la dinette esterna fosse più corta di me! (L'alternativa era dormire in cuccetta in tre strette come sardine).
