This experience, in a nutshell

2 boats: a monohull and a catamaran that will sail together in a unique and unforgettable experience!

Are you curious to experience it too?

Come with us to discover the Aeolian Islands!


We will give you the opportunity to visit all the islands of the beautiful archipelago. One week is not enough to enjoy a cruise to the Aeolian Islands in complete tranquility, which is why we offer an 11-day experience!


We will set sail from Capo D'Orlando and sail under full sail among the thousand inlets of the islets that we will meet in the archipelago: Vulcano, Lipari, Salina, Panarea, Stromboli, Filicudi, Alicudi, within wonderful marine oases.

We will be able to savor the beauty of the solitary sun-kissed islands, dive into turquoise waters and enjoy the days in the cheerful company of new friends, up to aperitifs at sunset and dinners in the marinas or under the stars, before falling asleep in the roadstead in the moonlight in one of the many protected bays.


Are you one of us??

We are waiting for you to discover all this and much more!

Our itinerary

Our trip starts here:

Capo d'Orlando.

Check-in: 5:00 PM

Our trip ends here:

Capo d'Orlando.

Check-out: 8:00 AM

Leg 1

VOLCANO

It is the first island we will meet when arriving from Capo D'Orlando. As we approach its shores, we will be shocked by its beauty and the acrid smell of sulfur, which completely fills the air surrounding the island. Today its volcanic activity is supported only by the numerous fumaroles that are located near the Gran Cratere. We will try to take a nice walk on the top of the volcano to admire a breathtaking view of the islands.

Leg 2

LIPARI

The island is the largest and most populated of the archipelago. The ancients called it Maligunis for its mild climate, renowned for the variety of landscapes due to the geological complexity of the territory. It is very famous for pumice stone. Over the millennia it has been shaped by 12 volcanoes, making it extraordinary. If we make it, we will take a scooter ride around the island, to discover all its most evocative corners.

Leg 3

SALINA

It is the second largest island, after Lipari, and is famous for the excellent Malvasia (we will try not to drink too much ;)) and for its lush vegetation, a feature that has made several directors fall in love with it who have chosen it as a location for the filming of famous films.

Leg 4

PANAREA

With its four square kilometers, it is one of the smallest in the archipelago. It is the ideal landing place for a splendid walk among hibiscus, caper plants and bougainvillea, with a view of the splendid islets, to the east, which frame the scene. We will also go for a beautiful swim in Lisca Bianca, famous for its submerged fumaroles. The island has been noted over the years, also for being the refuge of well-known jet-set personalities worldwide. There are archaeological sites in the interior of the island

Leg 5

STROMBOLI

She is the sister of Vulcan, with whom she shares for her 'active volcanism' and for the prerogative of being a micro world. The island is a special destination for those seeking direct contact with nature. For those who wish, you can register to participate in a guided ascent to the crater of the volcano. If you want you can also see the sciara di fuoco from the sea, clearly going to the northern part of the island, with a small night navigation. There will also be the opportunity to take a beautiful walk to the observatory, a strategic point. Stromboli is certainly one of a kind.

Leg 6

FILICUDI

Filicudi is perfect for nature lovers! Your senses will seem to be amplified out of proportion, because the absence of the noise of the city will allow you to fully enjoy the sounds of nature, everywhere around you you will smell the sea and the Mediterranean scrub. Needless to say, the sea of Filicudi is particularly beautiful and wild, clear and uncontaminated. Full of coves and bays easily accessible by boat. Filicudi is not just an island for sea lovers! Even those who love the mountains and long walks will be able to enjoy the island to the fullest. A classic of the filicudara summer is to participate in the evening aperitif at the Saloon, a legendary place run for decades by Uncle Nino by the sea in Pecorini.

Leg 7

ALICUDI

The island of Alicudi is the westernmost of the Aeolian Islands. There are no driveways on the island and tourist infrastructure is practically absent.

The island of Alicudi is a small paradise that impresses with its wild and natural soul. The only means of transport are boats for access by sea and mules to transport goods along the mule tracks. Alicudi has beautiful jagged coastlines and several points where you can snorkel, discovering the magnificent marine flora.

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

It was my first sailing trip and it was fantastic. Everything was perfect, Giuseppe organized everything with attention, including the choice of crew. All nice people, helpful and cooperative. Giuseppe has a great deal of experience in organizing these holidays and an excellent organization behind him. The islands we visited are beautiful and the weather was also nice ... (but perhaps this did not depend on Joseph) :) :) Thank you Francis of Rome

10 days of pure relaxation and comfort in the Dodecanese (1st Round)

If you are looking for a holiday that combines fun, adventure, relaxation and new friendships you have found what is right for you! My girlfriend and I boarded without knowing anyone from the crew and it was amazing. We got to make some great friends and have a lot of fun. The skipper was great! He took us to heavenly places and proved to be extremely helpful in all kinds of situations. During the day we moved to different places to swim and visit beautiful islands, while in the evening we usually ate in very special taverns. Good food and company made the evenings magnificent! I honestly recommend everyone to try such an experience! You will probably stop spending your holidays on crowded beaches to prefer the boat even in the following years. As already mentioned, the skipper was amazing and contributed a lot to making the holiday perfect! Thank you very much :) :) :)

10 days of pure relaxation and comfort in the Dodecanese (1st Round)

Organization decidedly lacking if not non-existent; holiday sold as a flotilla but the chief skipper (Giuseppe) was more than evident, he was only interested in the people on his catamaran that he deliberately kept detached from the people, only to say that they were the ones who wanted it that way, but in reality, talking occasionally with some girls, it emerged that this was absolutely not true. Giuseppe also showed little professionalism in managing the problems that arose with customers, disregarding the objections made on the strength of the fact that he had already collected the money. One of the catamarans was sent to sail even though it was known that it had damage to the sails which compromised its navigation without an engine and this is not acceptable. In the 46-foot sailboat he has placed 10 people plus the skipper (11), among other things, two places on the side absolutely impassable for an adult. Dennis
