This experience, in a nutshell


The Sporades, less known than other archipelagos in Greece but just as frequented by niche tourism: you will have heard of the Famous Skiathos and its airstrip on the sea. Here, that will be the embarkation and disembarkation point of our holiday.


The day after embarkation we will sail quickly to the nearby Skopelos, completely rocky but rich in lush and wild vegetation: the bays of these islands are beautiful and hospitable for our boat and will give us baths in warm and crystal clear waters.


We will visit Alonissos, now a National Marine Park that groups about twenty enchanting islets with turquoise waters and white beaches; and then Kirà Panagià, where we can swim while watching the seals that populate the park and spend a wonderful evening on board with an excellent barbecue of meat or fish. The absence of light pollution will make us make endless wishes under numerous shooting stars.


Then we will head to Skyros, which is one of the least touristy islands of the Sporades, which we will reach with an intense and fast sailing and the prize will be to enjoy the masterpieces of Nature.

Before returning to Skiathos we will stop in the beautiful Skantzoura.


I will be an attentive and demanding captain in order to convey all the values that life on a boat should leave you. I will take care of the galley and preparation of excellent and abundant breakfasts, healthy and light lunches and excellent dinners based on meat and fish. Those who know me know that a boat holiday is more beautiful if surrounded by good food and I will be able to amaze you with unexpected foods.


Everything is included in the participation fee and you don't have to add anything related to well-being on board, food, drinks, beer and wine... Only spirits are excluded and it will be at the discretion of the crew to deal with them if they deem it appropriate


On board I am very attentive to eco-sustainability, we use eco-friendly soaps and we try to recycle everything possible



The day usually starts with a hearty breakfast and it's great to wake up to the smell of coffee, plus yoghurt, fruit and vegetable smoothies, eggs and bacon, and everything else you can think of. After enjoying the best of the bay we can move on and visit others, enjoy lunch before the wind picks up to be able to sail and we will find a good mooring to spend the night in the roadstead or on the quay to be able to go ashore comfortably to visit the country and taste the delicacies of the Greek taverns


However, I will be very happy, if you wish, to make you interact by assigning roles to the management of the boat and maneuvers

The sailing experience with Manuele was magical. He is a formidable captain, attentive to everything around him, always transmitting confidence and passion in everything he does. An exceptional chef who surprises you every day with his dishes. Being able to share this experience with him was a privilege that I wish for everyone. He made me fall in love with sailing, I will definitely come back with him for more adventures.

This holiday aboard [hidden] was one of the best experiences of my life. It was the first time I got on a sailboat and initially I was a bit worried about not being able to sleep and not enjoy the holiday. Manuele, however, made me feel at home from the first moment, cooking excellent meals and taking care of each crew member. Manuele thought about the safety of the group at all times, taking us to coves sheltered from the strong Greek winds to ensure us a peaceful sleep and letting us explore wonderful places. Needless to say, once the holiday was over and she got off the boat, I immediately felt a very strong nostalgia! I can't wait to get back on board [hidden].

Best live aboard sailing trip I have done. The boat was exceptionally comfortable and everything clean and in ship shape ! The skipper was great at helping us learn the ropes to participate in the sailing if we wanted to. I loved having the SUP and snorkel sets on board to use when we moored in beautiful bays. It was terrific to catch fresh fish to eat along the way too. Thanks so much to Manuele for making my first trip to Greek Is such a wonderful experience.

It is difficult to find better: quality, hospitality, facilities, comfort and performance of the boat, courtesy and professionalism of the excellent skipper Manuele, sympathy and great culinary ability of the splendid Camilla, in short: five stars absolutely deserved. We can't wait to get back on board [hidden].
