This experience, in a nutshell

A fantastic opportunity and a great unforgettable adventure in nature await you on a comfortable boat of over 15 meters, equipped with 5 cozy double cabins. We will sail stopping in the most enchanting bays of the Aeolian Islands, to enjoy the wonderful Mediterranean sea.


During the week there will be a Certified Mountain Guide on board who will take you to the top of the volcanoes including Stromboli. You will be able to see the explosions at night... a very suggestive experience!


We will sail stopping in the most enchanting bays of the Aeolian Islands, to enjoy the wonderful Mediterranean sea. The Aeolian Islands already carry in their name all the charm of the mythology that characterizes them: they are the islands of Aeolus, the Lord of the Winds. Traveling by sailboat moved by the wind will make us fully experience the magic, nature and history of these lands. We will discover, along beautiful paths accompanied by a guide, the volcanoes , the islands of lava origin and their fantastic bays.


Start of the trek: from Capo d'Orlando (ME)

Difficulties: Easy


The treks of the Aeolian Islands are light and do not involve technical climbing or climbing. You will walk an average of 3-4 hours a day. All personal luggage will remain on the boat.

Amazing sailing trip with Alberto, Francesca and Pascoale throughout the Eolian Islands! It was our very first - and unforgettable - experience! We were able to visit all islands we planned, with great food prepared by Francesca and great sailing from Alberto and Pascoale. We had also the opportunity to practise a little bit of sailing which was amazing for us! We will definitely repeat that!

La temuta bora è stata gestita abilmente dallo skipper, trasformata in un diversivo che ha movimentato, in tutti i sensi, la vacanza. Skipper Alberto e Federica fantastica tuttofare, si sono dimostrati simpaticissimi e molto attenti nel rendere piacevoli e indimenticabili i giorni in mare. Esperienza consigliata, da ripetere !!

Bellissima vacanza, ottimamente organizzata. Alberto è stato molto bravo sia nel farci conoscere ed apprezzare le peculiarità del golfo di Trieste che nel gestire la barca in condizioni di vento sostenuto, trasmettendo un continuo senso di sicurezza e dimostrando un'invidiabile competenza e padronanza della barca a vela. Io e mia figlia di 17 anni ci siamo rilassati e goduti la vacanza utilizzando ed apprezzando le dotazioni di bordo (tender e d amaca). Un particolare ringraziamento anche a Federica per la pregevole assistenza fornita ad Alberto, per averci coccolati e viziati ed anche per le non trascurabili doti culinarie dimostrate: indimenticabili le fantastiche polpette. Un arrivederci ad entrambi.
