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

We were at our first experience on a boat and we could not have chosen a better solution to enjoy the Aeolian Islands in August. Giovanni is a super skipper, in addition to being a true professional, he entertained us with his stories and his fantastic recipes. In 7 days a beautiful understanding is created with the crew.

An incredibly wonderful experience. Giovanni is a truly exquisite person, a competent skipper and an exceptional chef! Grateful to have shared this experience with him and with a really friendly group. I wouldn't change a thing (not even the sailor's shower!). Definitely to be redone!

Beautiful experience. Initial fears of seasickness or the absence of a proper shower turned out to be excessive. Giovanni is a really competent and caring skipper, plus his passion for cooking also makes him an excellent chef! The Aeolian Islands are one more than the other and the coves where we stopped were amazing! The boat is super comfortable and the spaces more or less adequate to expectations.
