This experience, in a nutshell
Three days, a sailboat and an archipelago to explore. The Pontine Islands become the perfect playground for those looking for a mix of adventure and nature. You sail through turquoise waters, drop anchor in coves that can only be reached by sea and set off to discover the hinterland.
The trek leads on scenic trails, between wild cliffs and spectacular views. Every climb is rewarded by an infinite horizon, every descent leads to new hidden corners.
It is the ideal weekend for those who love to move, explore and experience the sea, without giving up moments of pure relaxation under the sun.
We set sail from Nettuno at 10:00 am.
The bow points towards Ponza, a rugged and fascinating island, where the cliffs sculpted by the wind plunge into a turquoise sea.
Where on our arrival, if it is possible, we will already make a first descent to the ground to discover Monte Guardia.
At sunset, the anchor drops near the Frontone or Cala Core, the sky lights up with pink and orange, the aperitif is served in the cockpit and dinner on board has the flavor of the first shared laughs. The night in the roadstead is silent, under a sky full of stars.
The following day is dedicated to the exploration of Zannone.
You wake up with the scent of coffee and the irresistible temptation of a first dip in crystal clear waters.
In Zannone the guide will be waiting for us to accompany us on a trek to discover this deserted and magnetic island.
In the footsteps of an old Cistercian Monastery and incredible panoramic views.
In the afternoon, sail to the Natural Arch of Ponza for a dip in its incredible seabed.
Night at anchor.
The following morning we continue the journey to discover Palmarola.
The coves follow one another like postcards: wild bays, light cliffs, caves and transparent seabeds perfect for snorkeling.
We will stop at Cala del Francese, where it will be possible to hike the Punta San Silverio path.
A short loop (about 0.4 km) leads to the church dedicated to the saint.
Then, with your eyes full of the intense blue of these islands and the salt of the sea on your skin, you head for Neptune, bringing with you the feeling of having experienced something wild, authentic and regenerating.
