This experience, in a nutshell

The cruise in Corsica is a classic destination, in great demand because it allows you to appreciate this corner of paradise behind the house, sailing along the wonderful coasts of Northern Corsica. During the cruise we will have the opportunity to visit characteristic fishing ports and ancient Corsican villages, whose beauty will be a splendid setting for a dinner or a romantic walk.


We will sail in a true paradise with crystal clear waters, sleep in enchanting roadsteads and be able to go ashore with the service dinghy (our eco-tender equipped with an electric motor).

You will also be an active part of the crew, you will be able to practice at the helm and learn how to maneuver the sails.

The cruise will take us to test our seafaring skills and practice playing with the wind and if you have never been on board, you will have the opportunity to learn.


With us, life on board is relaxed and fun, you make new friends and collaborate together in the management of the boat.

Our sailing style does not include standard itineraries, what we will do will be decided together on board based on the wind conditions and the wishes of the group, we can make long sails if the wind is favorable and the group wants to learn more, or choose to stop in the bay and visit the surroundings.


We are an amateur sports association, our aim is to make you discover the art of sailing, learn to sail while having fun, always respecting our sea.

The activities of our association are oriented by the ethical values that are the basis of our daily actions: we sail according to the principles of respect for the environment and responsibility towards nature, our main fuel is the wind and our energy is solar.

To embark with us it will be necessary to become a member of the association and present a medical certificate for non-competitive sporting activity.


On board we will separate waste collection and we will not use disposable tableware.


We look forward to seeing you on board!

Magnificent weekend of sailing on the island of Elba

We spent two unforgettable days on a sailboat, lulled by the sound of the waves, despite the not exactly kind weather, We breathed the essentials of an experience at sea that I would do again tomorrow. What we appreciated most was authenticity: a value that we are losing, but that here you rediscover and understand how precious it is and must be protected. We had the privilege of sharing this experience with a wonderful family, With Valentina and her boys we immediately got in tune, united by the passion for the sea. Sandro, the skipper, with his passion and experience, made everything simple and true, allowing us to experience the sea in depth, safely and without haste. The most intense emotion? The sails that swell in the wind, the silence broken only by the hull that cuts through the water, the feeling of freedom that enters you and makes you feel part of the sea. And then dinner on deck under the stars, with the distant lights of the coast and the breeze caressing the skin, while time seems to stand still. A sore point? It lasted too short! We recommend this experience to those looking for a different, intimate, regenerating and authentic weekend, to return home with a lighter heart and full of gratitude.

We had a great time with Sandro, an excellent skipper, a very patient instructor for those who want to approach the world of sailing, a Captain with whom to feel at ease and safe. Clean and comfortable boat. Highly recommended experience! Until next time, Sandro!

Positive experience with some flaws. In fact, this amateur sports association promotes the sharing of life on the boat in unison with all the members. In reality, the skipper himself deprives guests of a freshwater shower, while enjoying it for himself, the concept of sharing is lost. Positive experience for sea, journey and cleanliness. Negative for the skipper's attitude as it was unwelcoming and helpful with respect to the needs and requirements of the guests, every request was a small problem, from disembarking with the tender in port to the denied freshwater shower and not least the constant smell of pipe both inside and outside the boat.

Shooting Star Cruise in Corsica with return at night

08/13/2023

Alessandro is a gentle skipper under the rind of the hard and grumpy sailor. Attentive to everyone's needs, he knows how to introduce the crew members to the authentic and essential values of the sea, sharing his skills and opening, sometimes jealously, his boat "[hidden]" to those who, like me, wanted to abandon themselves to the breeze of the wind.
