This experience, in a nutshell

The Squid Festival has become a must at the end of the season for all sailors in the area: dozens of boats and hundreds of people with us will animate the shores of Capraia Porto. A complete immersion between sea and authentic flavors.

Sailing towards Capraia, we will enjoy the unspoiled beauty of the island, between crystal clear waters and breathtaking landscapes.


During the day, we'll be able to explore the island, join the party, enjoy the delicious squid dishes and savor the festive atmosphere of the village.

In the evening, the return by boat offers unforgettable sunsets and moments of relaxation under the stars, creating a perfect balance between adventure and culinary pleasure.


With a bit of luck we will be able to take the last swim of the year and visit the beautiful coves of Capraia.

On board there is never a shortage of sailing, fun, chats and good wine: in short, it is an incredible weekend.


Plus of the boat: it is equipped with an awning that completely closes the heated cockpit.

Matteo is the most knowledgeable person on sailing I have ever met, and his boat has a comfort far superior to normal charters, having 18 meters in length. Perfect organization and reliability. The tour of Elba is easy but wonderful

It was a great experience. Matteo is a very experienced skipper and can reveal all the secrets of navigation and the sea as well as being available for any need. I found a great company on board and so they were 3 perfect days. Dispassionate advice: ask Matteo to prepare his famous soft-boiled egg for you ;) ★ 5
