This experience also included a sailing course. The skipper Enzo is an excellent instructor, competent, patient and always ready to involve the crew in steering the boat. We sailed a lot. The boat is well maintained, comfortable and clean. The dolphins also noticed it and accompanied us both in the navigation to Palmarola and in the one for the return to Ostia. Enzo knows the Pontine very well, we enjoyed the most beautiful coves without haste and always in safety. Also thanks to the favorable weather that gave us a beautiful relaxing but also active holiday for those who wanted to participate in the management of the boat during the numerous sailings.

It was just what I needed: a few days to disconnect from the world, experience the sea and recharge my batteries. Enzo, the skipper, is a fantastic captain: professional, prepared, always available and able to convey safety and tranquility, without ever lacking in fun. I recommend it to those who want to unplug, have fun and meet new people. Me? I would do it again tomorrow!
