Experience in line with our expectations aimed at learning sailing on a sailboat, anchoring in the roadstead and landing in port. Ivo was able to be a good skipper, encouraging us to try and make mistakes (recovering us with his decisive action) and reassuring us when the adverse sea weather conditions of the first crossing put us to the test. We spent some pleasant time chatting, cooking and relaxing in the roadstead, but also visited Porto Azzurro with a dinner in the village and a pleasant morning walk to discover the area. The stop in the Stella gulf for a nice swim and a swim to reach the beach is also very pleasant. They were really 4 interesting, informative and relaxing days that we recommend to those who, like us, do not want to just stay sunbathing.

I was really looking forward to the sailing week in advance and my expectations were fully met. We sailed around the island of Elba, spent the night in beautiful bays, jumped directly from the ship into the sea, snorkeled on rocks and cooked together on board in the evening. A special highlight was that we caught fresh fish and cooked it the same evening. We saw dolphins jumping out of the water. On the island of Elba we were able to discover the landscapes and eat fine fish. The sunrises and sunsets were fantastic, and also to feel the stormy wind on your skin as well as the high waves breaking on the rocks was an impressive experience. Equally unforgettable was the clear starry sky over the sea. The ship was very well equipped with running water, electricity and comfortable beds in which you were gently lulled to sleep by the rocking of the sea. I would like to highlight our skipper Marco. He knows the island of Elba very well, always knew the best places to stay, had a sure sense of weather and waves and always made the right decisions for the entire crew. We learned a lot from him, about sailing, about wind and weather, about nature, history, technology and also about ourselves and the people on board. All in all, it was a great experience. I am very happy, full of beautiful memories and would sail again at any time.

A week at sea can be a holiday, an adventure or a learning opportunity: with Carlo it was all this together. Thanks to his experience and his ability to teach calmly and clearly, we were able to really challenge ourselves: from the helm to maneuvers in different sailing conditions. Every situation has become a moment of growth, always managed by Carlo with professionalism, availability and the serenity of someone who knows the sea and knows how to convey safety. An opportunity that we recommend to those who want to approach boating or perfect their skills, finding in Carlo an authoritative and at the same time welcoming point of reference with everyone.

Wonderful boat holiday: comfortable boat with attention to every detail. Carlo was an exceptional instructor, patient and prepared, capable of transmitting confidence and passion for sailing. An unforgettable experience that I recommend to anyone who wants to experience the sea in an authentic, safe and enriching way.
