Catamaran holiday, where we will experience the Bahamian sea in total relaxation, immersed in breathtaking landscapes and away from the daily hustle and bustle. We'll sail past crystal-clear waters and white sand beaches, exploring remote bays and pristine islands. Long baths in turquoise waters, snorkeling among corals and submerged wrecks and aperitifs at sunset will be the main activities that will make this experience unforgettable. Each evening we will stop at quiet roadsteads surrounded by the natural beauty of the Bahamas.

We will have a modern 2021 Astrea 42 catamaran at our disposal, spacious and welcoming, with ample space both inside and outside. The cabins are comfortable and well-sized, while the spacious cockpit provides a perfect area for relaxing and socializing. At the bow, nets allow you to enjoy the sun and the sea, while the flybridge offers additional sunbathing areas ideal for admiring the view. The catamaran is equipped with a desalinator, ensuring fresh water on board.

Our shared boat holiday will be characterized by the active collaboration of everyone on board. The crew will be responsible for boarding the galley, preparing meals and keeping the common areas tidy and helping the skipper with maneuvers. Some activities, such as using the anchor remote control or supervising during navigation, will be explained on board, giving everyone the opportunity to participate in life on board.

Discovering the Cinque Terre and Gulf of Poets on a sailing boat

The 3 stars are an average of several things: the skipper Francesco is an excellent person and very prepared, friendly and company, for him the stars would be 5. Very nice place, too bad for the sea a bit rough but it was no one's fault. The boat, on the other hand, was old and not very well maintained, there were 11 of us but there was no place to stay all in the shade and even the places in the sun were very uncomfortable. There was no way to charge the phones (only 2 sockets working and only when the engine was on) and finally 5 cabins of which 2 half of the others are bunk cabins while one of the double rooms even had a private bathroom, too bad we all paid the same amount. Finally, squeaks everywhere that made moments of relaxation less relaxing.

Massimo was not present, he found a replacement, Francesco. He seemed to me to be not very proactive in working as a group, in giving explanations on the itinerary and in dealing with the inconveniences that arose during the weekend. An experience that turned out to be positive all in all thanks to the group, but I would have expected more attention.
