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.

Francesco and La [hidden] a perfect combination. A Helmsman and a Vessel that led me to know a new dimension for the first time. Francesco, a professional skipper, resilient in the context of weather events, has always found quality alternatives. The cruise tour Tuscany Elba Corsica Capraia Tuscany has reached peaks of excellence. Fair winds from Alessandro "l'enfant" and Antonio.

Highly recommended and unforgettable holiday! It was my first time on a sailing boat and the first trip alone and I gave myself the best gift! I was lucky enough to find a wonderful group, with whom I shared indelible moments such as seeing dolphins on the very first day. But I cannot fail to talk about our Captain Francesco, a delightful, caring person, an excellent cook (I learned many new recipes and was promoted to "assistant chef"), who with his guitar and energy animated the evenings, and with his professionalism he was able to manage the unexpected in the best possible way ... I visited coves with crystal clear sea, saw a lot of fish of all colors and made a trek (challenging, but breathtaking) on an island I fell in love with, Capraia. I recommend this holiday to those who need to disconnect, silence in the early hours of the morning, to those who want to get out of their comfort zone and overcome their limits. Because you know, the sea listens to our most hidden thoughts and unexpectedly gives us the answers 🤍
