This experience, in a nutshell

We will set sail for an unforgettable sailing adventure through the picturesque Otranto Channel, and then reach the Diapontie Islands, north of Corfu: a small wild paradise, with turquoise waters and an almost Caribbean atmosphere.


We will explore the lively town of Corfu, stop in Parga with its picturesque charm and continue to some of the most beautiful and unspoiled bays of the Ionian Islands, where we will drop anchor for swimming, relaxation and breathtaking sunsets.


We will then sail through the legendary Corinth Canal, a unique experience for every sailor, until we conclude our journey in historic and fascinating Athens, the cradle of Western civilization.

Unforgettable week! Beautiful places and weather. The islands were one discovery after another, thanks also to the experience of Gianni and Giovanna in taking us to the most beautiful streets in the most spectacular moments (a unique emotion to witness the sciara del fuoco of Stromboli. All the advice on clubs or what not to miss of the islands is also excellent. Life on board has always been a great mediation, inevitable between strangers in such a confined environment, but Gianni and Giovanna have always known how to mediate and always keep us safe. Laughter out loud and endless aperitifs thanks also to a crew that smoothly returned to the kitchen. At my third experience of this kind and with some neophyte travel companions we all managed to have a week of intense vacation following the personal predispositions of everyone, between adventure and relaxation. Personally, the icing on the cake was the final day made of pure sailing, in which we were able to help the navigation and really enjoy the sea! The choice of the port of departure and arrival is really excellent which allows you to be reached easily and without too many changes of means, A big hug to the legendary Captain Gianni and the sweet Giovanna. your "Valentì"

Seeing the Aeolian Islands from the sea, guided by an experienced skipper and an attentive hostess allowed us to visit the most interesting places of these islands. We enjoyed good food on board being able to taste fresh tuna expertly cooked by the skipper, an amazing pasta with shrimps purchased from local fishermen, Some maneuvers with the sails also entertained us during the transfers, even if the little wind available did not allow us to really realize the strength of the wind and the sea: fortunately! The good company, the attention to every single person on board and the good understanding between the whole crew as well as living an interesting exchange of experiences allowed us to to live an unforgettable experience.

It was not just a holiday, it was a week in which we found new friends. A beautiful atmosphere was immediately created among all the participants, especially thanks to the amazing Gianni and Giovanna. Gianni is very competent and has always put our safety first, while trying to save us something whenever possible. He then made the navigations pleasant moments of sharing with his stories. Giovanna pampered us in every way with her availability and sweetness. Both, made us feel at home from the moment we got on the boat. It was an experience to be repeated absolutely and I am sure there will be others in their company! Thanks for everything
