This experience, in a nutshell

Sicily is embraced by a sea of infinite shades, rich in history and traditions where art and culture meet and accompany you as you sail through the picturesque islands that surround it.

Crystal clear sea, unspoiled nature, active volcanoes and 6000 years of history have allowed the Aeolian Islands to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site.


The key words of this experience will be Sail & Enjoy... Browse and enjoy! A week of leisure, sharing and new friendships.


The energy of the volcanoes, the intense blue of the water, the scent of the islands, will surprise and excite you more and more every day.

Leg 1

SATURDAY - Lipari

Our tour starts from Lipari, where from 18:00 on Saturday you can embark. Once settled in the cabin there will be a short organizational briefing with the skipper and then off to the village to enjoy the first evening all together and to get to know each other better!

Leg 2

SUNDAY - Panarea (2 HOURS)

On Sunday morning we leave, perhaps after having had the typical breakfast with granita & brioche. We will put the bow towards the crystal clear waters of the Pumice quarries for a first swim. Here you will be surprised by the turquoise and transparent water that will be very inviting for a nice dip! We will continue sailing by heading towards the island of Panarea, the most "chic", frivolous and holiday of the seven, the "Capri" of the Aeolian Islands; We will have about 10 miles of navigation which, if the wind is favorable, we will sail, letting ourselves go to the sound of the hull ploughing through the water. We will make the first anchorage in Cala Zimmari, a perfect bay to venture with mask and fins in its crystal clear water. In the late afternoon we will decide whether to stop here for the night or, at sunset, moving in front of the village. At dusk the islands show themselves in all their beauty: the suggestion is given by nature that bursts with an extraordinary variety of colors and shades. As always, there are those who enjoy the sunset waiting to dine under the stars and those who cannot give up visiting the island for a walk through the white alleys surrounded by boutiques, and then find ourselves at Raya, a club and disco, with one of the most beautiful terraces on the island. Here we will enjoy an aperitif on the terrace of the Raya, with soft lights, admiring the Stromboli that, restless, puffs on the horizon is an experience that is worth this trip alone! But Panarea is also familiar: whether you choose to spend your evening in the disco, or whether you choose to walk along the alleys of the island or return to the tranquility of the Bay by boat to have dinner.

Leg 3

MONDAY - Stromboli (2 HOURS)

On Monday morning it will be the turn of Lisca bianca. This anchorage is a "must see stop" in the Aeolian Islands, as well as for snorkeling also for the sulfataras. Another point of extraordinary beauty among these small islets in front of Panarea is Basiluzzo, the largest of this small archipelago. Here it is beautiful to get lost in the mix of colors of the seabed and the turquoise water. After swimming in the sulphurous waters of Panarea, you will head for Stromboli or "IDDU", the most active volcano in Europe, so dear and feared by the islanders, unmistakable for its conical shape and the cloud of black smoke that is stationed almost perpetually on its top. It will be the strip of black and volcanic beach at the foot of the village of Panarea. San Vincenzo to host us in the roadstead to be able to go ashore and visit the town. Once on land, it will be pleasant to meet on the terrace of the Ingrid Bar for an aperitif together. Dinner will be on the boat and if you wish it will be possible to circumnavigate the island to be able to admire the spectacle of the "Sciara del Fuoco" after sunset, perhaps enjoying an arancino bought in a typical rotisserie of the island.

Leg 4

TUESDAY - Salina (3 HOURS)

The largest of the islands, with extraordinary beauty and variety of landscapes. The morning and lunch will be dedicated to the eastern part of the island, where we will be able to admire the green seabed and the steep cliffs overlooking the sea of Capo Faro. In the afternoon we will sail towards Santa Marina, after a swim we will get ready to visit the town, colored by caper flowers and typical Aeolian houses, for those who wish, it will be possible to visit one of the many wine cellars on the island. You can return by boat for dinner if you want or for those with a sweet tooth instead it is time to go to Lingua where "pane cunzatu" and granita da Alfredo await you!

Leg 5

WEDNESDAY - Filicudi (2 HOURS)

On Wednesday morning we will sail to Filicudi, but first we will take a swim in the bay of Pollara made famous by the film "The Postman". The beauty of this bay is characterized by a rock formation that creates a natural arch and the small fishermen's deposits carved into the rock. After seeing Pollara, we will continue sailing towards Filicudi and if we are lucky it will also be possible to spot some dolphins or turtles! Capo Graziano will host us for a swim, for those who love snorkeling, here they will have fun. We will then continue to Pecorini a Mare, an agglomeration of fishermen's houses where in the evening the Saloon will be waiting for us, the legendary restaurant that awaits us boaters for its delicious Malvasia accompanied by Sicilian appetizers prepared by the ladies of the village and a cheerful chat under the stars.

Leg 6

THURSDAY - Vulcano (3 HOURS)

On Thursday morning, as soon as you wake up, breakfast and head to the west coast of Filicudi to admire up close "La canna (a rock formation of eruptive nature that rises from the sea to a height of about 74 meters above sea level) and the Montenassari rock". After a swim in the bluest as it gets, we set sail for Vulcano, western bay to prepare for an eventful evening in the village for lovers of nightlife or for a nice evening of chat and company in the tranquility of the protected bay waiting for one of the most evocative sunsets of the Aeolian Islands ...

Leg 7

FRIDAY - Vulcano - Lipari

The day of the return to Lipari... But the cruise is not over yet! For those who want, early morning is the ideal time to climb the Volcano, or you can take advantage of a tour through the narrow streets of the village and a breakfast with granita and brioche at Remigio's which is always a great satisfaction. Today we will move to the south side of Vulcano, after admiring the Grotta del Cavallo, here there are two beautiful bays: Baia di Gelso and Baia della spiaggia del Cannitello, also with black sand. In the Bay of Gelso you can have lunch at the famous Ristorante da Pina. In the bay of the Cannitello beach, a bar is open for a happy hour or aperitif on the beach accompanied by dancing music. A last swim at sunset in the shadow of the Faraglioni of Lipari, is the worthy conclusion of this wonderful week spent together. Back in port, the cruise is not over yet because we will console ourselves with an excellent dinner all together in one of the best restaurants in Lipari... to best honor this beautiful week spent together!

Leg 8

SATURDAY - Lipari

Disembarkation will take place on Saturday morning by 9:00 am.

La nostra recente vacanza in barca a vela è stata semplicemente indimenticabile. Dal momento in cui siamo saliti a bordo, siamo stati accolti con un senso di avventura e di libertà che solo il mare può offrire. La barca era perfettamente attrezzata, spaziosa e confortevole, con tutti i comfort necessari per una settimana di relax e divertimento. Uno degli aspetti che più ci ha colpito è stato il contatto diretto con la natura. Navigare tra acque cristalline, scoprire baie tranquille lontane dalla folla è un’esperienza impagabile. Ogni mattina ci svegliavamo con una vista diversa, sempre mozzafiato, e ogni tramonto era un momento di pura magia. Il capitano GIOVANNI è estremamente competente e cordiale. La sua conoscenza della zona ci ha permesso di visitare luoghi incantevoli che altrimenti non avremmo mai scoperto. Inoltre, era sempre pronto a soddisfare ogni nostra esigenza, rendendo il viaggio piacevole e senza pensieri. Abbiamo anche apprezzato la flessibilità dell’itinerario, che ci ha permesso di decidere di volta in volta dove andare e cosa fare. Che si trattasse di una giornata di snorkeling in acque turchesi, di un pranzo in una pittoresca taverna sul mare o di semplicemente rilassarsi al sole sul ponte, ogni momento era perfetto. In conclusione, questa vacanza in barca a vela è stata una delle migliori esperienze che abbiamo mai vissuto. Se cercate un modo unico per esplorare il mare, rilassarvi e vivere avventure indimenticabili, non posso che raccomandarla caldamente. Torneremo sicuramente a navigare presto!
