This experience, in a nutshell

San Vito lo Capo is a corner of paradise and the Cous Cous Fest is a beautiful and inclusive festival. The undisputed protagonist of the event is couscous, a dish rich in history and an element of synthesis and integration of Mediterranean cultures.


In Sicily the end of September is a time of beautiful, clear and windy days and the sailboat is ideal for sailing free in the wonderful waters of this paradise at the western end of Sicily.


In the morning we will sail between the Zingaro Reserve, Scopello, Makari and the Monte Cofano Reserve, while in the evening we will spend the night in San Vito Lo Capo, to fully enjoy the culinary and musical events of the Cous Cous Fest

Giovanni was a very helpful and knowledgeable skipper. Even before departure he met our needs and during the trip he proved to be very human and helpful. Traveling with him has been a pleasure, both as a captain and as a person. Highly recommended.

We had an unforgettable holiday in the Aeolian Islands aboard [hidden], but what made this experience really special was Giovanni, our skipper. From day one, Giovanni turned out to be much more than just a captain: he was an expert guide, a passionate cook and, above all, an authentic travel companion and always ready to take action for any unforeseen event. With his professionalism, he always made us feel safe, choosing perfect routes according to the wind and taking us to spectacular and uncrowded coves, where the sea seemed painted. But what really struck us was his humanity and his ability to create a light, familiar and fun atmosphere on board. Always smiling, attentive and present, Giovanni did not just steer the boat: he cooked for us with passion, shared laughter, toasts and sunsets, quickly becoming a point of reference for the whole crew. His complicity and desire to party made each evening unique, without ever losing the right balance between relaxation and fun. If you are looking for a sailing adventure that combines sea, emotions, good food and authentic company, we can only recommend you to set sail with him. An experience and new friendships that we will carry in our hearts.
