This experience, in a nutshell

Experience a weekend on a sailing boat among the wonders of the island of Capraia, one of the pearls of the Tuscan Archipelago, characterized by breathtaking landscapes and unspoiled nature.


This trip takes place during the famous Squid Festival, an event that celebrates the tradition of squid fishing, a mollusk typical of local waters. During the festival, visitors can enjoy squid prepared in a variety of ways, from simple to gourmet dishes, such as frying, grilling, and even in salads, accompanied by local wines.


Capraia, with its fascinating history, is a place where time seems to have stopped. Originally an ancient penal colony, today the island is a paradise for hikers and sea lovers, offering scenic trails that wind through rocks, Mediterranean scrub and cliffs overlooking the sea. During the weekend, you can also discover local traditions, such as folk music and dancing, which make each festival a unique moment of conviviality.

Beautiful experience and fantastic beautiful and wild northern Corsica. Very comfortable boat. Francesco the skipper in addition to being an excellent connoisseur of the sea and the places, is an excellent cook and connoisseur of local products. P.s. avoid yogurt in the galley!

If you are looking for a boat experience with a trained skipper: choose francesco! Experience, passion, knowledge and more: excellent (mouth-watering) culinary skills. Francesco certainly does not lack the enthusiasm that he transmits to the whole crew by creating cohesion (crew by the way fantastic in my week). Spacious and comfortable boat. Ps: a piece of advice?! No yogurt in the galley 🤣

Unforgettable sailing holiday with Francesco: an experienced skipper, attentive and always available. In addition to guiding us to beautiful bays, he surprised us with his skills as an exceptional cook. Great people on board, perfect atmosphere from start to finish. An experience that I absolutely recommend!
