This experience, in a nutshell

Once on board, after settling into the cabins and an initial briefing, we will decide together the route to follow starting from Baratti in the direction of Capraia, always taking into account the weather and sea conditions.


We will then continue towards the Giraglia, in the suggestive "finger" of Corsica. If the weather permits, we will be able to reach spectacular places such as the Saleccia beach and Punta Cavallata: corners of the wild Mediterranean that will be difficult to forget.


From there we will slowly begin the return journey, although it would be impossible to mention all the wonderful places we may encounter along the way.


During the experience there will be space not only for relaxation, swimming and the pleasure of life on a boat, but also for those who want to get involved. Those who wish to do so will be able to approach the world of sailing, learning the basics: from the management of the sails to the main maneuvers, up to arriving – always under supervision – to steer the boat.


A perfect opportunity to experience the sea as protagonists, in a practical and engaging way, and not just as spectators.


Seven intense days of nature, freedom and sharing, ideal for really disconnecting and letting yourself be guided by the rhythm of the sea.

Ivo is a professional skipper. We had a technical outing that was very formative for me and we had fun.

Experience in line with our expectations aimed at learning sailing on a sailboat, anchoring in the roadstead and landing in port. Ivo was able to be a good skipper, encouraging us to try and make mistakes (recovering us with his decisive action) and reassuring us when the adverse sea weather conditions of the first crossing put us to the test. We spent some pleasant time chatting, cooking and relaxing in the roadstead, but also visited Porto Azzurro with a dinner in the village and a pleasant morning walk to discover the area. The stop in the Stella gulf for a nice swim and a swim to reach the beach is also very pleasant. They were really 4 interesting, informative and relaxing days that we recommend to those who, like us, do not want to just stay sunbathing.

My week aboard [hidden] was very pleasant and rejuvenating. The boat, spotless and perfectly organized, is ideal for acquiring the basic skills of sailing and comfortable enough even for 4 people, if respectful of the common areas and equipped with a good spirit of adaptation. Skipper Ivo was always available to share his nautical knowledge and his twenty years of experience allowed him to adjust the itinerary according to the weather ensuring maximum safety. His delicious aperitifs and dinners gave us moments of pleasant conviviality, rebalancing some small character roughness expressed in ways that were not always conciliatory ;-)

Exciting experience! Unfortunately we found a couple of days of bad weather that limited the itinerary, but the good company and the great Ivo made the trip beautiful. Highly recommended!
