This experience, in a nutshell

Have you already seen it all on your old sailing trips?

Would you like to experience a new adventure in a place away from mass tourism?

Come with us to the fascinating Zanzibar Archipelago, eastern part of Tanzania, Indian Ocean.

We will be two catamarans sailing together: a small flotilla!

The archipelago belongs to the so-called spice islands and includes two main islands:

Zanzibar (also called "Unguja") is the best known and also the most touristy

Pemba, a true paradise. There is no tourist infrastructure. This small island off the coast of Tanzania is largely untouched. The scenery around Pemba Island is breathtaking. The water is clear and crystal clear. The beaches are covered with fine white sand. It is the perfect place to sunbathe or swim in the warm waters of the ocean.

There are about forty smaller islands, many of which are uninhabited.

Not to be missed: Mnemba, where you can snorkel among the dolphins. Nakupenda "The ghost island" that emerges only at low tide. The land turtles (giants) of Prison Island or the sea turtles of Nungwi.

We will have the opportunity to discover the colonial city of Stone Town, the main city of Zanzibar, on January 5, 2026, the day of departure, with an organized tour on site.

Wonderful places, unique islands, each one with different characteristics. The boat was really nice and big, with some malfunctions but nothing compromising. Too bad I didn't take advantage of every day to visit coves, the last day we were in Capo d'Orlando to avoid the queue at the refueling, I understand the needs but ... The only flaw is the feeling that a tour was planned but without being interested in the opportunities of the area, you get off and you don't know what to see or how to move, you spend the night in Lipari and the next evening there is the feast of the Patron that you miss ... Navigation yes but organization no. Competent skipper who always made me feel safe while sailing, I did not like the requests from the galley and the lack of knowledge about extra navigation information. The holiday was described as a flotilla but a separation between the two boats is deliberately maintained, which did not create problems for me but it is only for fairness.

I would have liked more information and indications on places to visit and more interaction with the catamaran, since it was a flotilla holiday. Thanks to Gabriele, an experienced skipper, I have always felt safe even in the face of the unexpected. Seeing the Aeolian Islands like this, I was not enthusiastic but I was lucky to have experienced, collaborative and nice people on the boat!

Wonderful experience and above expectations! The skipper Fabrizio, in addition to being very experienced, perfectly interpreted the group's wishes by taking us every day to coves with spectacular water and different but intact and wild locations (including a natural park where everyone left their hearts), and alternating in a balanced way the much-loved roadsteads with stops in the ports, in which there was no lack of chore characteristics. We ate very well because in the lucky group there were very good chefs who prepared pasta, flatbread, fish and other delicacies every day! The boat was comfortable and organized! An experience for which I would leave today and that I recommend to all lovers of the sea experienced on a boat!
