This experience, in a nutshell

It is no coincidence that UNESCO has elected them a World Heritage Site: the Aeolian Islands are a masterpiece where fire dances with the sea. Here, history cannot be read in books, but can be breathed among the lava paths and the thousand-year-old finds of an open-air archaeological park, guarded by time and eruptions.

Lipari, Panarea, Vulcano, Stromboli, Salina, Alicudi and Filicudi: as in any large family, each has its own character. There is the worldly, the wild, the shy and the rebellious. But they all share the same DNA: a sea that shines like crystal, the intoxicating scent of the Mediterranean scrub and sunsets that tinge the soul red.

From pebble beaches to fishing villages, every dip is a journey into myth. Come and discover the taste of Malvasia and the spectacle of primordial nature.


An experience designed for the few.

To allow you to fully experience this magic, we have chosen to privilege your peace. The holiday, in fact, is confirmed with only 2 people on board, making the experience absolutely exclusive and free of crowding.

It is the ideal solution for those looking for a holiday in the Aeolian Islands in absolute relaxation, with the privilege of not necessarily having to share the boat and the week with many people. To ensure maximum comfort and privacy, we have chosen to accommodate a maximum limit of 4 people in addition to the skipper, transforming the deck of the boat into your private living room on the waves.

The boat is designed for your total well-being, equipped with:

Complete external cushions with large sundeck at the bow;

S.U.P. (Stand Up Paddle) to explore the most hidden coves in silence.

Our trip ends here:

Milazzo.

Check-out: 8:00 AM

Leg 1

Saturday

Boarding scheduled in Milazzo (Me) around 18.00 at the Marina di Nettuno; arrangement of the galley, accommodation in the cabins, briefing and welcome aperitif on board.

Saturday

Leg 2

Sunday

Our sail begins towards Vulcano, where the deep blue gives way to the transparencies of the Grotta del Cavallo. After a stop in Lipari, in the beautiful setting of Valle Muria for lunch and relaxation, we will sail to Salina. Once anchored in Santa Marina for the night, the evening will be tinged with the flavors of the island: a dinner on a boat and a walk through the villages to taste the excellence of local pastries.

Sunday

Leg 3

Monday

Bow towards the wildest soul of the archipelago: Filicudi. Here, nature manifests itself in all its majestic solitude between the legendary Canna rock, which stands out proudly in the blue, and the enchanted reflections of the Grotta del Bue Marino.

When we are saturated with sun and sea, we will let ourselves be lulled towards the picturesque village of Pecorini a Mare. Anchored to the buoy for the night, we will experience the magic of the sunset while sipping an aperitif in the small, authentic bars on the pier, surrounded by the timeless atmosphere that only this ancient fishing village can preserve.

Monday

Leg 4

Tuesday

We will take us to the Bay of Pollara, on the west side of the island of Salina. The hamlet of Pollara stands on the remains of an ancient volcanic crater that has partially collapsed. In addition to its natural beauty and landscape, Pollara is one of the most famous places in the Aeolian Islands for the film Il Postino. In this place of enchanting natural beauty and crystal clear sea, we will dive for a beautiful swim and some snorkeling along the coast.

In the afternoon we sail towards Panarea, anchoring at Cala dello Zimmaro for the night. After dinner, a panoramic walk will lead us to the heart of the village: a labyrinth of white houses with a magical atmosphere, suspended between breathtaking views and the rhythm of good music.

Tuesday

Leg 5

Wednesday

We will dive between Bottaro and Lisca Bianca for a unique snorkeling among sulphurous fumaroles, continuing after lunch towards the submerged Roman remains of Basiluzzo. At sunset, we will reach Stromboli: from the boat we will admire the primordial spectacle of the eruptions, an almost continuous beating of fire unique in the world. We will spend the night in the roadstead, with the possibility of disembarking comfortably to discover the charm of the village.

Wednesday

Leg 6

Thursday

Before heading to Lipari, we will stop at Cala Junco for a relaxing lunch immersed in a breathtaking setting. In the afternoon, head to the dazzling blue of the White Beach, where the seabed sparkles thanks to the precious pumice powder. We will end the day at the Faraglioni for an unforgettable sunset, before heading to Vulcano for a starry night in the quiet of the western roadstead.

Thursday

Leg 7

Friday

After a last walk through the shops of the course and an inevitable breakfast of granita and brioche, we will set sail towards the south side of Vulcano. We will reach the Donkey Beach, an unexpected refuge with tropical charm set in the lava rock: a real daydream, where the black beach enhances the transparencies of a turquoise and crystalline sea. After the last regenerating swim, we will unfurl the sails making a gentle return to the Marina di Nettuno, with arrival scheduled for 18:00. A final toast with the skipper will seal the memories of this exclusive adventure.

Friday

Great stay with Antonino! He is very nice, attentive to us and very accommodating! We visited the islands of Vulcano, Salina and Panarea. The pace was adapted to us: we were able to enjoy the sailboat and the islands on which we hiked and/or walked. The sailboat is very functional, we cooked on board some days. We felt at home and shared good times with Antonino. A great way to travel: we highly recommend!

Our sailing trip experience around the Aeolian Islands with Antonino as captain was unforgettable. Attentive to our needs, he was able to create a relaxed and friendly atmosphere despite the limited space of the boat. Antonino is an outstanding sailor, perfectly mastering his sailboat and knowing the waters and sites of the Aeolian Islands. His expertise allowed us to discover magnificent places. A maritime adventure that I highly recommend to all sea and nature lovers.

A fabulous and unforgettable experience! Antonio took us to the right places at the right time. We couldn't have asked for anything more. In addition to being an experienced skipper, he is also a very good chef. We will not soon forget the seafood lunches on the boat. Thank you!
