This experience, in a nutshell

The Velasquez Flotilla in northern Sardinia will give you wonderful landscapes, white sandy beaches and blue water, in an atmosphere of fun and engaging friendship.


You will already know all the participants upon arrival, and you will be on holiday right away.


On board we will have fabulous swims, dives, aperitifs, dance, and go ashore in the most historic and wonderful places in Sardinia and southern Corsica.


The experience of our organization will guarantee you anunforgettable experience and continuous fun, while leaving room for sailing, the enjoyment of nature, and the free expression of the group.


But that's not all: we will sail a lot, raising the sails whenever the wind allows us, and you too will be able to participate in the management of the boat as a real crew, deepening your knowledge of the boat, and having even more fun with drinks on board, new friendships, and sporty sailing! ;)


You will only be able to hear the sound of the wind and the sea, and you will be totally immersed in nature and in the friendship of those who share the passion for the sea like you.


The area of northern Sardinia is full of beautiful bays and shelters suitable for sailing cruises, both for the breeze wind that blows during the day that will make us sail a lot, and for the numerous shelters and marine paradises – during our cruise we will have the privileged ticket to anchor and visit the Maddalena Park by sea, exploring the most exclusive places.


The beaches of northern Sardinia, with their blue seabed, are often - not surprisingly - called "the Caribbean of Italy".


To experience the Flotilla in this area of Sardinia and in such a beautiful atmosphere of sharing. It's a unique experience!


At Velasquez we take great care of our participants; we want to organize every year a warm, fun and united experience for all our friends on board. Read our reviews to hear the voice of the participants of previous editions. 😉


For any information and useful details write to us, we will reply in a few minutes;)


We look forward to seeing you on board. ;)


We will sail from the Costa Smeralda in a beautiful itinerary tested in several editions of the Cruise, which passes through the most beautiful bays of the archipelago of La Maddalena, including Caprera, Spargi, Razzoli, Budelli and Santa Maria; we will sail to South Corsica and visit the most beautiful turquoise water pools in the area. We will land and visit the historic town of La Maddalena, with a dinner on land all together, and we will also visit the beautiful Bonifacio in Corsica, or alternatively Porto Vecchio.

Velasquez Flotilla: on a sailing boat between Costa Smeralda, La Maddalena and Bonifacio

Non credevo potessero esistere posti così belli!! La flottiglia è il giusto compromesso tra chi vuole far festa e chi si vuole godersi il mare in puro relax. Claudio è stato uno skipper super coinvolgente, pronto a rispondere alle esigenze del gruppo e alle richieste di ciascuno. Vacanza ideale per chi ha voglia di ricaricare le batterie e staccare il cervello dalla frenesia giornaliera!!

Dal telefono non funziona bene questo questionario, volevo dare il voto massimo. Ho fatto già altre esperienze organizzate ma questa è stata unica. Claudio è una persona di grande esperienza che mette a disposizione di chi vuole imparare la vela, ci ha fatto divertire in totale sicurezza. Non sceglie a caso chi gar salire a bordo ed è anche molto scrupoloso nel formare i componenti delle barche! Super
