This experience, in a nutshell

Hello! My name is Carmelo and I am the organizer and skipper of this experience. 


My holiday style is relaxingenjoyable and based on sailing.


typical day generally consists of:

  • wake up on one of the islands and have a rich and healthy breakfast with a dip and morning swim,
  • discover a new bay where you can take unforgettable baths and have lunch with something fresh and light,
  • After taking a nice nap, we head for the next island of our itinerary trying to arrive at a time where we can anchor with the sunlight,
  • Finally, we end the day on a high note with a walk on land and, for those who wish, with a dinner in a typical restaurant.


This holiday is suitable for all ages: couples, families and solo travelers looking for an experience characterized by relaxation, smooth sailing and lots of dives!

Leg 1

Saturday - Boarding

Boarding is scheduled from 17:00 at the Marina Poseidon in Milazzo (ME).

After settling on board and getting to know the participants, we will proceed with the purchase of the galley. Guests will be instructed on the rules to follow during the trip to ensure greater safety.

The day will end with a dinner on board or in one of the restaurants in Milazzo.

Leg 2

Sunday - Panarea

After breakfast, we will leave the moorings for the first island of our adventurous journey: Lipari, the largest of the Aeolian archipelago and the main tourist destination.

Waiting for us will be the bright White Beaches characterized by the high presence of pumice stone and crystal clear waters. After lunch, in the afternoon we will head to the smallest island of the Aeolian Islands: Panarea, a worldly and scenic island, with white houses and blue doors and windows, where we will spend the night in the roadstead or in a buoy field. Here an aperitif is a must!

Leg 3

Monday - Stromboli

In the clear hours of the morning we will visit the islets of Basiluzzo, Dattilo and Lisca Bianca formed off the island of Panarea.

We will continue eastwards, following the route that leads to the island of Stromboli, a still active volcano whose spectacular eruptions can be admired from the boat itself or with a trek from land.

We will spend the night in the roadstead or in the buoy field depending on availability.

Leg 4

Tuesday - Salina

On our way to Strombolicchio, a volcanic islet located at the northernmost point of the whole of Sicily, we will spend the morning swimming and diving in a cobalt blue sea.

Sailing to the island of Salina, we will have lunch at Cala Junco, a natural cove on the island of Panarea that houses, a few steps away, the remains of a prehistoric village dating back to the Bronze Age. 

The day will end on the island of Salina, the greenest and most luxuriant of the Aeolian archipelago, thanks to its numerous water springs that make it a nature reserve.

Leg 5

Wednesday - Filicudi

Granita and cunzatu bread await us in Lingua, a small fishing village characterized by the presence of a small lake of brackish water, from which salt was obtained in past times and from which the name of the island of Salina originates.

This will be followed by a stop in the picturesque bay of Pollara, a small village that stands on the remains of an ancient volcanic crater that has partially sunk.

In the afternoon we will head to the island of Filicudi, the oldest of the archipelago and entirely visitable on foot. After visiting the small port of Pecorini a mare, we will spend the night at anchor or in a buoy field depending on availability.

Leg 6

Thursday - Lipari

In the morning we will circumnavigate the island of Filicudi, visiting the suggestive Grotta del Bue Marino and diving into the waters of the La Canna stack , known for its elongated shape and on the top of which a statue of the Madonna has been placed by mountaineers.

In the early afternoon we will head to the island of Lipari and anchor in the bay of Marina Corta. Here you can stroll along the streets of the town, full of shops and typical restaurants. We will spend the night in the roadstead or in a marina. 

Leg 7

Friday - Vulcano and return

In the morning we will set sail for Vulcano reaching the western side, where there is the Pool of Venus, a small oasis surrounded by tuff and basalt rocks with crystal clear water, and the nearby Grotta del Cavallo. Here we will do several dives.

After lunch, in the early afternoon we will return to Milazzo to spend the last night moored at the port of departure.

Leg 8

La mia recensione è di 3 stelle per il bellissimo gruppo che si è creato in barca e perché nel complesso è stata una bella vacanza! Nonostante ciò, da persona che ha già partecipato a diversi viaggi di gruppo e esperienze in barca, onestamente non ripartirei con Carmelo il quale, pur essendo sicuramente una bravissima persona, a mio avviso non ha più lo spirito, il coinvolgimento e l’entusiasmo necessari per essere uno skipper, soprattutto in un viaggio di gruppo. Preciso inoltre che la barca era idonea per non più di 6 persone (noi eravamo 8 più lo skipper), visti comunque gli spazi ristretti e l’assenza dell’aria condizionata.

Abbiamo effettuato il tour con lo skipper Carmelo che si è rilevata sin da subito una persona poco partecipe, il quale non ci ha spiegato le regole basi per poter affrontare il tour in barca (scarico wc, raccolta rifiuti, ecc) inoltre poco privo ci conoscenza sul luogo é rimasto per tutta la vacanza una persona passiva. Nonostante questo sicuramente silenzioso e accondiscendente. La barca ha la capacità di 8 persone ma in realtà ci si sta a sufficienza in 6, priva di aria condizionata e ventilazione é stato veramente molto difficile dormire alla notte. Nel complesso l’itinerario é stato bello. Un altra nota che ci tengo a precisare che non mi è piaciuta sono i 100 euro extra a persona che vengono richiesti fuori dalla quota giustificati con pulizia e biancheria a mio avviso veramente eccessivo!!
