This experience, in a nutshell

The sailing week between the "Iles d'Or" , the perfumes of Provence and the wild fjords of the "Calanques" is an experience of beauty and nature, dedicated both to the curious newcomers of navigation and to passionate navigators.

We leave for the "Hières" , Porquerolles, the largest, invites us to walk its paths, on foot or by bike, to amaze us with breathtaking views.

Port Cross , the smallest, is reminiscent of a pirate den.

The Ile du Levant closes the great bay of the archipelago towards the east and the French Riviera.

We sail in a sea that is a sailing gym to the north west, we stop in the coves of the French coast, we go ashore for an aperitif, a pastis, a dinner.

We reach "Le Calanques" .
The bays between the fjords, pristine and often reachable only by sea, are a reserve of emotions.
We continue sailing for the return: practice of sailing, wind, sea and sun near La Ciotat.

We allow ourselves extended times before the greetings at the starting point.

It was a great holiday, better than expected! Gianluca was a true captain, always ready to please the group and attentive to everyone's needs as well as a super cook. With the boat, well maintained and clean, we saw a crystal clear sea and places to take your breath away. The wonderful adventure companions and icing on the cake, an amazing sail between Sardinia and Corsica. What can I say, I highly recommend it!

What can I say... Best holiday ever... a fantastic experience to say the least made possible thanks to Gianluca. (for me THE CAPTAIN) who made us have fun, feel good and taught us the essence of sailing. Not to mention that he had snorkelling equipment for The whole group and thanks to him I had the opportunity to experience the foil pulled by the tender. I must also give part of the credit to the group formed, made up of wonderful people, with whom I shared fantastic moments and who will remain in my heart! I will definitely do it again.

As you can see, the reviews, 90% negative, start this year. This premise is a must. in fact, it is the first time that Gianluca has traveled, for work, to Sardinia and Corsica. A well-known circumstance and quite evident since he did not know the places. Moreover, on most of the previous voyages, there were friends of his on board. Nothing to say about his boat, well maintained, clean and with adequate space for the 11 people on board. That said, this should not be a plus, but a normal thing. But this aspect is also necessary to highlight, because in my house, although I care about it, just as Gianluca rightly cares about his boat, I would never allow myself to treat a person like fish in the face if he puts a cup in one way, or slams a door because it is the first time he opens it and he does not know how it works. Certainly it was good manners, to be understood by those who lacked it. The tones and ways used, the total absence of communication and finally the selective silence that in the last two days has affected Gianluca, lead me to advise against a trip in his company. Gianluca welcomed us on the boat with a "I can't take it anymore of people, people are crazy and I'm not a psychologist". It was also funny at first, but then we realized that behind those words, there was a tired person who no longer wanted to do this job. I will not dwell on the itinerary not communicated, not respected, and on the mockery of making fun of requests made about places to visit. I will see Sardinia another time if I have the chance. Nor will I go into the subject of the galley, which will not be the skipper's management, but alas it is he who has prevented us from making a shared list, effectively imposing one in the possession only of his friend. The 35 euros of gas required? We are really magnoni eh ! If only for those two coins! But when my partner asked him to be able to do the Wind foil course, he didn't spare himself a "eh but you have to pay separately" (obviously known circumstance), And although my partner asked him on several occasions, he didn't make him do it. The skipper's motto throughout the holiday was "eh mo let's see". When a person is tired of doing what he does to work, or stops doing it, if he is lucky enough to be able to afford it, or he puts himself in the perspective that he is working with the public and therefore has to deal with people. His luck was to have people on board who were far too polite and patient. Our luck instead was to be in beautiful places with fantastic people. So thank you crew
