This experience, in a nutshell

Unspoilt nature and wild landscapes

A crossing in the open sea to chase dolphins while the sun and the sea transport you to another dimension.

On the itinerary, we will first skirt Elba , proud ruler of the sea, then over there Corsica, unforgettable with its mountains, medieval towns, local products and wild cliffs overlooking the sea that create the typical gullies and beaches.

Embark on a journey of pure contact with nature to experience the sea 100%: sailing under full sail to breathe the adventure deeply.


Everyone is required to participate in the activities on board, it is a moment of aggregation and above all it is fun.

Leg 1

San Vincenzo - Pinarellù

We will meet at the port of San Vincenzo at 5 pm, where we will arrange our luggage, get to know each other and after a short briefing, we will go together to do the galley. One of the most exciting experiences of the cruise awaits us, the night crossing accompanied by a dome of stars that is difficult to observe on land. At dawn we will be accompanied by a rocky landscape of the Corsican coast, surrounded by the sea of an intense blue that mixes with the teal. We will spend the day relaxing at anchor in Pinarellu'.


San Vincenzo - Pinarellù

Leg 2

Pinarello - Rondinara

In the morning, after a nice breakfast and a swim, we will sail into Southern Corsica, which will bewitch you with its bay of white sand and blue sea. First stop: Rondinara, one of the most beautiful bays in Corsica. A protected cove, where you can anchor and swim to the beach, equipped with a fin mask to enjoy the local marine fauna. You choose the best landing place to enjoy a lunch on board and a rest under the sun. In the afternoon, Lavezzi will be reached. A stop is a must! We let ourselves be enraptured by the extraordinary beauty of these almost lunar scenarios... Swimming at will, snorkeling and walks on the rocks (possibly with rock shoes), in a sea that looks like a natural pool. From here it will be a pleasure to look for the right spot to anchor and enjoy a fantastic sunset and a night under the stars....


Pinarello - Rondinara

Leg 3

Maddalena Archipelago

After breakfast, we'll head to the Maddalena archipelago. This paradise of fine sand with a Caribbean appearance, is known and envied by the whole world, a set of islets and beaches of white and pink, which are part of the Maddalena natural park. Here, you will not be able to stop wherever you want, as some of the most precious beaches of the archipelago are protected natural parks. But no one forbids you to sail in these waters in the immediate vicinity, from where you can still enjoy this beautiful show made in Italy.

Leg 4

Strait of Bonifacio

Today we will face the mythical Strait of Bonifacio known for the strength with which he, the mistral, when he decides to blow is no joke. Once the sails have been hoisted, here, for both sailing lovers and beginners, you would never stop sailing: the colors, the scents, the wind, the salty spray of the deep blue sea make you feel like a real sailor on the high seas. The entrance to the port of Bonifacio, especially if at sunset, with the sun illuminating the rock overlooking the sea surmounted by the citadel, can really take your breath away. You can decide whether to stop at the port in the evening to have dinner in one of the typical Corsican restaurants, or visit it during the day and then move to the roadstead to spend the night.

Leg 5

Santa Giulia - Porto Vecchio

We will visit the spectacular Santa Giulia where the crystal clear water, the white sand and large white rocks give life to a magical scenery. Evening in Porto-Vecchio, among the typical restaurants, courses and souvenir shops.


Santa Giulia - Porto Vecchio

Leg 6

Porto Vecchio - Island of Elba

The time has come to leave Corsica to head to the island of Elba, it will take us almost all day, we will sail as if it were an offshore regatta putting into practice all the things we have learned during the cruise. At sunset, an aperitif awaits us in the fantastic Gulf of Lacona


Porto Vecchio - Island of Elba

Leg 7

Isola d'Elba - San Vincenzo

We will move to Palmaiola, a small uninhabited island where the island's lighthouse stands alone. After some seawatching and a nice lunch, we'll head to San Vincenzo.

Northern Corsica: the sailing wonder!

09/2/2023

Barbara M.

La vacanza non e' stata all'altezza della lauta spesa (1039+cambusa+porti) e il comportamento dello skipper inaccettabile: sono stata aggredita con parolacce al terzo giorno fermi in porto per avere chiesto informazioni sul da farsi. In arrivo la prima sera lo skipper informa infatti che causa del meteo non si va in Corsica del Nord. Si pensa per i primi giorni, poi il meteo migliora eppure rimaniamo fra il sud est dell'Elba e Capraia. Poteva rimediare facendoci fare numerose calette al giorno o tutta la costa Toscana, ma lo skipper non aveva voglia di fare molto, spesso dormiva o stava in stanza con la sua accompagnatrice. Mai visto uno skipper che prende per se' la stanza migliore a prua lasciando che i paganti dormano fuori per il caldo, o in dinette, visto che le stanze a poppa erano bollenti e rumorose. La vacanza di rada quindi e' stata piu' in porto. Mai fatto cosi pochi bagni in barca. Infine l'eta' indicata per la quale avevo scelto il viaggio 30-50 era fasulla, era 41-68.

Semplicemente straordinario, conoscitore dei luoghi, del vento, del mare. Ma c’è qualcosa più grande del mare, che in pochi hanno: una bella Anima. E quella di Francesco traspare in ogni gesto, in ogni sorriso, in ogni silenzio ascoltando il suo vento. Grazie di tutto Conandante.

"un Capitano!! C'è solo un Capitanooooooooo!!" .. Francesco è unico: sicuro, cordiale, attento. E' sempre riuscito a tenere in pugno ogni situazione (mare grosso, malesseri, risate, pisolini, pranzi, aperitivi, piatti da lavare..) con un innato aplomb. La sua grande passione per il mare è contagiosa, riesce a catturare l'attenzione solo parlando di nodi, miglia, boe.. anche a dei neofiti. Ci ha guidati saggiamente nelle scelte sugli spostamenti, e ci ha condotto alla scoperta di posti magici. Se poi si mette in cucina, la sua carbonara è TOP! Ha una gran barca, comoda, affidabile e spaziosa. Arrivederci Capitano ;-) ! Buon Vento!!
