This experience, in a nutshell

5 days on board with time to relax and enjoy the beauty of the sea. Thursday late morning we leave Cecina towards Elba.

We either stay 1 or 2 nights in Elba before crossing to Corsica with 1 or 2 nights in the Maccinaggio area. The return leads us to Capraia (1 night) before a return to Cecina. Some guests like the idea of an overnight crossing (conditions allowing) so we often depart at the end of the evening to navigate back under the stars.

All breakfasts and lunches are freshly prepared on board using quality ingredients. Dinners can be prepared on board or we can dine out depending on the wishes of the group.

This experience is for those who want to enjoy sailing, find time to relax on the ocean and do so in comfort.

As already stated, weather controls the routes. I aim to provide a trip as described but also aim to provide a comfortable ride along. Therefore, some destinations may not be reached during your trip and the order/route may change.

Guests need no experience, however if you prefer to lend a hand or learn about sailing, I am more than happy to help you do so. More experienced sailors can take as much a part in sailing as they like.

Wonderful sailing weekend! Excellent weather, full sails and pleasant company. Anthony is a very capable skipper and always active as well as having a winning sense of humor!! He always tried to satisfy every request, gave directions on the places seen and on boat life, He is very nice and .... last but not least.... A great chef! He has always cooked tasty and varied dishes, also taking care of the presentation !! And to think that you found yourself on board vegans, intolerant to fish and more!

Wonderful holiday from all points of view! A well-structured itinerary, with not too long journeys, but at the same time enough to enjoy the sailing trip, and enchanting stops in the most evocative places on the island of Elba. Antony is a prepared skipper with a lot of experience, but above all he is a nice person. We immediately found ourselves in tune, and living together on the boat was simple. and pleasant. Antony did not limit himself to driving the boat, but he dedicated himself to us 100%: he entertained us, especially the boys, involving us in the management of the boat, entertaining us during the day with baths, swimming with masks, visiting caves, water skiing with the tender, stand-up paddle; and in the evening with games and chats. He is also a great cook, every day was a different culinary experience with dishes from all over the world, and he was able to adapt to our needs without problems (gluten-free cuisine for celiac disease). The boat was spacious enough for our group of 2 adults and 4 kids (3 cabins, each with its own bathroom), but we would easily fit a seventh person in the common space. Extra costs have been kept to a minimum, despite some trips made by motor due to lack of wind. We would absolutely recommend a holiday with Antony. We will definitely be back!
