This experience, in a nutshell
Once we have boarded and settled into our cabins, we will go shopping for provisions together. Back on board, we will have a safety briefing, then we will set sail for Capraia or Elba. We will then turn the bow towards Corsica, passing Capo Corso and the famous Giraglia rock. Centuri, Saint Florent, Saleccia and Désert des Agriates will be some of our stops in Corsica.
In the crystal-clear waters of this sea, we will be welcomed by fish, sea anemones, starfish, octopuses, moray eels and sea bream, and, with a little luck, we will also encounter dolphins.
We will cook together, with the help of the skipper, and for those who wish, the skipper will be available to teach the basics of sailing, so that he/she will be able to participate in the manoeuvres with the boat.

Leg 1
Day 1
From Varazze to Capraia/Elba
After making the galley and receiving the safety briefing from the skipper, we will set sail for Capraia/Elba , one of the most beautiful islands in the Tyrrhenian Sea. We will spend the first night of our cruise in the roadstead, under a blanket of stars.
Leg 2
Day 2
From Capraia to Macinaggio
Wake up with comfortable, bathroom and breakfast. We will take a tour of the most beautiful roadsteads on the island, ending in Cala Rossa, with its strong and contrasting colors, and then leave for Macinaggio, in Corsica. In the afternoon we will spend more time in a cove where we can enjoy the wonderful emerald green sea. Swimming, snorkeling and relaxation will be our activities. Night in port or in one of the many bays in the area.
Leg 3
Day 3
Centuri and night sailing
After hoisting the sails, we will head towards Cap Corse.
At noon we will arrive in Centuri: here, those who want can disembark on land and enjoy the famous lobsters raised on site.
In the afternoon dives, naps and relaxation. After dinner, departure with the sunset towards Cala Mortella: to keep us company the magic of the stars and the rustle of the boat that flows silently on the sea.
Leg 4
Day 4
Desert Des Agriates and evening in Saint Florent
We sail towards the Caribbean beaches of the Désert Des Agriates, with its famous Plage de Saleccia.
In the evening, disembarkation in Saint Florent, a small village of Genoese origin, where you can taste the typical local cuisine and enjoy the view from the ancient fortress overlooking the sea.
Leg 5
Day 5
Return to Macinaggio with a stop in Barcaggio (Cap Corse)
Finally, the time has come to get closer to the starting point. We sail with our boat to Macinaggio. First of all, we will stop in Barcaggio, a tiny village on the tip of Cap Corse and, if the weather conditions are favorable, we will stop here, in the roadstead, with the possibility of having dinner on land, otherwise we will head for Macinaggio, we will disembark on land and, at the end of the evening, we will treat ourselves to a long farewell aperitif at the end of this beautiful sailing holiday.
Leg 6
Day 6
Let's enjoy Capraia (or Elba): clearcoats and evening on land
A day dedicated to the exploration of the island of Capraia, seen only in passing on the outward journey, which certainly has nothing to envy to the dreamy roadsteads seen in northern Corsica. In the evening, visit ashore with the skipper to admire its stainless beauty.
Leg 7
Day 7
Return to base
Unfortunately our holiday has come to an end.
We fill the last stretch that separates us from the mainland with a nice sail, in the hope of crossing dolphins, which often pass through these waters.
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.
