This experience, in a nutshell

Partendo dalla Marina di Castiglioncello, navigheremo lungo le coste di due delle sette perle dell’Arcipelago Toscano nel cuore del Parco nazionale loro dedicato, a bordo di una comodissima barca a vela di 15 metri, Modello Oceanic 50, 5 cabine/ 3 bagni.

Abitate sin dall’antichità, ricche di storia e incantevoli per la varietà del paesaggio e le mutevoli sfumature dei litorali, la verdeggiante Elba e la selvaggia Capraia sono lo scenario ideale per una crociera in barca a vela.
L’Elba, l’isola principale dell’arcipelago, simile nella forma a un pesce che nuota verso Ovest, si apre ai nostri occhi con una costa ricca di cale, calette e spiagge d’ogni tipo: sabbiose, di ghiaia, o addirittura nere, composte di minerali e pietre finissime di cui l’isola è piena.

Fra le mete che visiteremo ecco di seguito: Porto azzurro, caratteristico borgo di pescatori, circondato da spiagge dorate e dal blu profondo delle acque del mare.
Marciana marina, il comune più piccolo dell’isola di origine etrusco-romana, rinomata per la produzione di vino e per la pesca del tonno con il caratteristico borgo di pescatori del Cotone, che dal latino significa scogliera.
Cala Fetovaia, fra le spiagge più caratteristiche dell’isola, sabbia dorata e scogliera granitiche dove il mare appare come una tavolozza di colori variando dal blu intenso al verde chiaro, fino al bianco della sabbia.
Le cinque calette del Viticcio, caratterizzate da una ghiaia levigata, mista a ciottoli e sassolini dalle varie tonalità di grigio e divise da una scogliera coperta da pini e macchia mediterranea.
Punta Enfola caratterizzata da un sottile istmo di terra che crea due spiagge: una opposta all’altra, una più bella dell’altra dal mare smeraldino.

L’Isola di Capraia, altra meta della nostra crociera, è invece la terza dell’Arcipelago toscano per grandezza. L’isola naturalmente selvaggia, dalla caratteristica forma ellittica è di origine vulcanica.
Qui senz’altro visiteremo la Cala di Portovecchio, acqua cristallina dal fondale ciottoloso.

Magical Amalfi Coast, Capri, Ischia and Procida by Catamaran

09/15/2024

GIANLORENZO C.

AN EXPERIENCE NOT TO BE REPEATED. Bad communication with Sailsquare, which never answers the phone. Reception on arrival at the marina quite poor. Boat with very uncomfortable bathrooms and cabins, only the large and comfortable living area. Boat with obvious maintenance deficiencies: an engine that broke down on the first day (repaired after several hours of waiting), a decidedly dead battery, with the need to constantly resort to parallel to start the engine. A non-homogeneous group (two Italian couples and two English speaking couples), with a professionally trained (Italian) skipper, but who spoke almost only English. The destination is beautiful (both the islands and the Amalfi Coast), but structured in a real fraudulent industry aimed at plucking tourists: in Amalfi an evening in the port 450 Euros, of course without invoice. In Procida 230 Euros, with a ridiculous invoice, without the number of the holder, of the issuer (false, therefore). In Capri a buoy (illegal) outside the port 150 Euros, naturally in black. Figures that in the civilized world would be staggering, even higher than those of the port of Saint Tropez. Where are the Law, the Coast Guard that would have supervisory duties, the Guardia di Finanza? Not to mention the restaurants: a plate of spaghetti with clams costs 30 Euros, while in Santa Magherita Ligure, where I live and which is certainly not a cheap destination, it costs 19 Euros. Never again!!!!

Sailing, Relaxation and Fun in the Pontine and Phlegraean Islands on a 15-meter Boat

The expectations of a sailing holiday were not met as there was never the opportunity to raise the mainsail as only the last one, after the insistence of the crew, they tried to raise the mainsail but without success as it was poorly rigged. Which, by the way, was reported at the departure having had the opportunity to read the previous reviews, so this inconvenience added to the boat delivered dirty and with refrigerators working halfway due to a battery life problem and never reported except during the cruise. Organizer certainly not able to satisfy such an experience, so overall the judgment is certainly disappointing
