Check-in: 3:00 PM

Our trip ends here:

Furnari.

Check-out: 8:00 AM

Leg 1

SABATO - Portorosa - Lipari

We embark in the afternoon in the marina of Portorosa, Furnari (Messina).
Filled the galley and taken our places in the cabin, we are ready to set sail: we leave Sicily behind and with a fresh crosswind we sail towards Lipari, skirting the island of Vulcano, which welcomes us from its ever-active crater. We spend the night on Lipari in the port of Pignataro.

Leg 2

SUNDAY - Lipari - Panarea

After a good breakfast of mulberry granita, we make an excursion to Lipari Castle, which stands by the sea in a rich archaeological area. We are in the upper part of the town and from there we overlook the entire bay of Marina Lunga and Marina Corta as well as the lower town.
We then head for Panarea, stopping at Lipari for a refreshing swim under the pumice quarries. Aperitif on board and then dinner ashore.

Leg 3

MONDAY - Panarea - Stromboli

After enjoying a classic granita, swim in the gaseous bubbles of Lisca Bianca and stop at Basiluzzo. We head for the Sciara del Fuoco, the side of the island of Stromboli where the volcanic materials emitted in the eruptive explosions from the volcano's main crater accumulate.
The spectacle that Stromboli offers us with its continuous eruptions is unique and thrilling. Dinner and aperitif ashore.

Leg 4

TUESDAY - Stromboli - Salina

Leaving Stromboli we head for Salina, the greenest island of the Aeolian Islands and, for those who love mountains, the extinct volcano of Monte Fossa delle Felci with its 962 metres is an irresistible challenge.
We stop and swim while visiting all the most beautiful bays, such as Lingua and Capofaro. Evening ashore or on board, at your leisure.

Leg 5

WEDNESDAY - Salina - Filicudi

Leaving Santa marina di Salina, we stop for a refreshing swim at Pollara, on the western side of Salina, the natural set of the film 'Il postino' (The Postman). The morning passes between dips in the sea, relaxation in the sun and walks around the island. In the afternoon, we depart for Filicudi and spend the night at Pecorini a mare, famous for its aperitifs at the Saloon.

Leg 6

THURSDAY - Filicudi - Vulcano

After breakfast, swim at Canna and the Bue Marino cave.

Trip to Alicudi and then to Vulcano for the night.

Leg 7

FRIDAY - Vulcano - Portorosa

Swimming at Vulcano, mulberry granita while the more daring decide to climb the volcano. Back on board, we head for Gelso, the southern part of the island, where we stop for a swim and a final farewell to the islands. Before sunset we set sail again towards Sicily. Dinner in a trattoria and overnight stay in Portorosa.

Leg 8

SATURDAY - Portorosa

It is time for farewells. Disembarkation is scheduled for 9AM but the desire to get back on the road is very strong. We exchange addresses with our travelling companions and leave with the promise to meet again soon, another sea voyage and many other islands are waiting for us! NOTE: The itinerary may be subject to change, at the skipper's discretion, for weather reasons and depending on the guests' requests.

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

Very nice week aboard Mario's sailboat. The extraordinary landscapes and crystal clear water were there. Swimming every day, visiting the islands, each more charming than the next, and nights under the stars lulled to the rhythm of the waves. I recommend!

Hello, since you are the one who is asking me, with a view to improving your service, you must say that my assessment of the skipper is negative. On a couple of occasions it even made me feel uncomfortable (once I was even called "impeded"). I wonder how he could have allowed himself to take such confidence when I was 56 years old. I avoid reporting other episodes on the subject of security.

A very good meeting! Mario and his boat led us comfortably, always safely, allowing us to have enough time to discover interesting and beautiful places by sea, but also by land (making us disembark). Thank you Mario!
