This experience, in a nutshell

We will spend an unforgettable holiday sailing among the beautiful Pontine Islands.

These islands have an absolutely unique charm and nature.


The Pontine archipelago is divided into 2 distinct groups of islands not too far from each other: The first, located in the northwest, includes the islands of Ponza, Palmarola, Gavi and Zannone, the latter island is part of the Circeo National Park; the second group is located in a south-easterly direction with Palmarola and Ventotene.


A skippered sailing cruise to the Pontine Islands can be an exciting and relaxing experience. Here's what you might expect from this experience:


Sailing: You can actively participate in sailing if you wish, learning the basics from your guide or simply enjoying the views while the crew operates the boat.


Island exploration: Each island has its own unique charm. Ponza, for example, is famous for its sea caves, while Palmarola is appreciated for its crystal clear waters and unspoiled nature.


Snorkeling and diving: Excellent opportunities for snorkeling and diving. You could explore the seabed rich in life.


Local Food: During your cruise, you will have the opportunity to enjoy delicious local dishes. Many of the islands have restaurants and taverns offering specialties based on fresh fish and other local products.


Relaxed atmosphere: Sailing cruises tend to offer a more intimate and relaxed atmosphere than cruises on larger ships.


In general, a sailing cruise to the Pontine Islands offers the opportunity to explore enchanting places in a more intimate and flexible way than traditional cruises.

Boarding in Nettuno for 17.00/18.00

On the day of embarkation you go to do the galley and then you take possession of the cabins, you can after doing these things either leave in the evening and have dinner in navigation weather permitting or have dinner in Nettuno and leave on Sunday morning.

Leg 2

Sunday

On Sunday we are in Palmarola and we tour it all 360 degrees because I think it is one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean with its coves with crystal clear waters and countless caves to be explored with the tender.

Leg 3

Route to Ventotene, with the possibility of deep-sea fishing during the transfer. The island is rich in history and tranquility. We spend the night at the Roman port, very suggestive and convenient to go ashore in the beautiful center of Ventotene, characteristic with its shops and alleys.

We will take a nice swim in the beautiful coves of the island. And in the evening it was off to Ponza. We go down to Ponza with the tender to admire the center

Antonio (and Stefania.. because behind.. indeed.. WITH. .a great man there is also a great woman!!:)) is a very prepared, prudent, serious, but at the same time welcoming and caring skipper. The [hidden] II is very spacious and has everything, the beautiful Pontine and still not for mass tourism (perhaps also thanks to the period). Maybe by chance, maybe not, the whole crew was perfectly balanced and the presence of children / teenagers was a further strength. What do you eat... and laughter!!!!

The experience with Sailsquare and with the Skipper Antonio was really nice, Giulia's assistance in completing the purchase was decisive, Antonio led us to discover secret corners of the Pontine area, showing absolute mastery of the seabed and coves of the Pontine Islands, surprising even those of us who knew the archipelago well, anchoring and sailing always in the name of maximum safety and comfort allowed, sometimes he cooked for us and turned out to be excellent and discreet company, his consolidated relationships in the docks allowed us to always have open doors, for a safe mooring when the weather required it and a privileged entrance in the Roman port of Ventotene, the islet is a real pearl of history and circumscribed beauty, finally my fellow adventurers a beautiful heterogeneous crew, a real crew devoted to joy where everyone has brought soul to the spirit of the group, compact from start to finish, Thank you you are Beautiful
