This experience, in a nutshell

Join us to discover this jewel of the Tuscan Archipelago. An island with a village of less than 400 inhabitants, surrounded by protected waters.


A small high village is the marina, along which we find some restaurants and shops selling typical local products.


Small mountains that exceed 400 meters dominate the island and are crossed by numerous more or less demanding paths, which make it a popular destination for trekking and diving enthusiasts from all over Europe.


Its coves full of caves, a crystal clear sea and a seabed full of life, attract many lovers of the sea and sailing, especially because it is an island that can only be visited by boat.



All this, combined with a small number of accommodation facilities, makes Capraia an unspoiled natural paradise that deserves to be discovered.


And that's why we have created this experience to introduce you to these magnificent places by sea and by land.



We are waiting for you on board to experience this adventure together, in which sport, nature, relaxation and fun will be the ingredients that will make it magical and unforgettable.

Our itinerary

On Thursday afternoon we will embark and after arranging the galley and assigning the cabins, we will be able to go out and visit the village of San Vincenzo and maybe eat a pizza all together to start making amalgamation among all the crew members. On Friday morning, after having a nice breakfast, we will leave the port, and with a course 265° we will sail to reach Capraia. A beautiful sail of about six hours, during which we will delight in maneuvering and steering the boat at the helm. We will arrive more or less at lunchtime in Cala del Moretto, a beautiful cove south of the island with crystal clear water colors. Here we will have lunch and before dark, a nice sail around the island awaits us. Passing through the picturesque Cala Rossa, Cala del Ceppo, the gulf of the port and Cala di Porto Vecchio, we will arrive at anchor at Mortola, one of the most evocative coves on the island for its colors and numerous caves along its rocky walls overlooking the sea. In the evening we will sleep at anchor, and doing it in a period when the sea is not crowded by mass tourism, makes it particularly exciting because it allows us to feel completely in contact with the sea. The next morning we will enter the port, from where all the walks and trekking routes that branch off to the island begin. Accompanied by one of our guides who will be on board with us from the beginning, we will discover this island as wild as it is fascinating and rich in history, with its views overlooking the sea and the islands of Corsica, Elba and Gorgona that stand out on the horizon. Depending on the weather conditions and the level of the crew members, the guide will decide on an itinerary of medium or a little more advanced level, in order to make the experience pleasant and safe for everyone. In the evening, back in port, we will go to eat in a famous fish tourism run by a fishing family, where we will be able to enjoy a dinner based on local fish. The next morning we will return, but not before making a short stop at anchor outside the port, to enjoy the last moments of relaxation before facing the return navigation.

Bellissima esperienza, bellissimo equipaggio, ma soprattutto ottimo Skipper!!! Marco mette a suo agio le persone, sempre disponibile e molto preparato. Mi ha permesso di affrontare serenamente la mia prima esperienza in barca a vela. Visitando nuovi posti grazie anche alla perfetta combinazione barca a vela + trekking (e ben organizzata, un ringraziamento anche Francesco "Checco" la nostra guida!) Grazie a tutto il meraviglioso gruppo che mi ha accompagnato in questa nuova avventura!!!

Ottima vacanza, che ci ha permesso di godere sia del piacere di navigare in uno splendido mare, sia di fare delle piacevoli camminate tra i boschi della costa dell'isola, baciati da un caldo sole di inizio Ottobre. Marco (skypper) e Checco (guida trekking) sono 2 persone eccellenti sia per le loro caratteristiche umane, sia per la loro professionalità. Marco è una persona sempre attenta alle necessità e richieste della "ciurma", ci ha assistito e guidato in questa breve (purtroppo) vacanza facendoci scoprire angoli meravigliosi di una natura ancora sorprendente e, non ultimo, i piaceri del palato in ristorantini che non avremmo mai scoperto da soli, ma anche, in barca, dove ci ha cucinato una gustosissima pasta col pesce che aveva pescato lui stesso. Infine un ringraziamento ai compagni di viaggio che hanno reso questa gita quello che speravo: relax, divertimento ed un'ottima esperienza umana. Un saluto a tutti, speriamo di rivederci alla prossima. Buon Vento a tutti.

Ho trascorso un bellissimo weekend in barca a vela con uno skipper davvero eccezionale, la sua competenza e la sua esperienza si sono dimostrate fondamentali per rendere l’esperienza sicura e divertente. Lo skipper ha reso il viaggio ancora più speciale con le sue storie e la sua passione per la vela. Per gli amanti del trekking l’isola d’Elba è il posto perfetto con i suoi sentieri che attraversano boschi e scogliere affacciate sul mare,. È stato davvero un weekend rilassante e avventuroso, grazie Marco
