This experience, in a nutshell

Do you like to go to sea? With me you will not only have a holiday, as a sailing instructor I will pass on everything I know if you want to learn it, with the aim of getting excited sailing in the sea of the Tuscan archipelago.


All seasons are good, come and enjoy the crisp air, the sun that is only pleasure, amazing sunrises and sunsets and the intimacy of sharing the boat and the passion of going to sea.


Let yourself be surprised by the sensations you feel when you leave the pier, sail and even sleep in the open sea, the chatter of the waves, the stories whispered by the wind, the colors of the sea, the flowers and scents of the island of Elba.


The base is Punta Ala, for two days the destination is Elba, with several days also other islands of the Tuscan archipelago (see customize your holiday)

Impossible weather and sea conditions?

We catch up on the first free date.


Sailing is the sea and for me it means above all sailing, relaxation, nature, sharing experiences, points of view and personal stories.

Elba, Capraia, Corsica and basic sailing course

My week aboard [hidden] was very pleasant and rejuvenating. The boat, spotless and perfectly organized, is ideal for acquiring the basic skills of sailing and comfortable enough even for 4 people, if respectful of the common areas and equipped with a good spirit of adaptation. Skipper Ivo was always available to share his nautical knowledge and his twenty years of experience allowed him to adjust the itinerary according to the weather ensuring maximum safety. His delicious aperitifs and dinners gave us moments of pleasant conviviality, rebalancing some small character roughness expressed in ways that were not always conciliatory ;-)

Exciting experience! Unfortunately we found a couple of days of bad weather that limited the itinerary, but the good company and the great Ivo made the trip beautiful. Highly recommended!

Someone told me that sailing is a school of life and I think that's just the way it is! As a neophyte I was able to immerse myself in this world and live a wonderful experience! We sailed around Elba laughing, joking, philosophizing.... always under the careful and scrupulous eye of our Captain Ivo who has always been able to put us at ease even in the most demanding moments and pass on some knowledge of this fascinating world! Super experience

Experience as described, too bad we had 2 days of zero wind so no sailing and even the training was almost nil, but this could not be predicted. Beautiful places, beaches and water. The boat is spartan, as you can see in the photo, but comfortable, in my opinion it is better to rent it whole with people you know. I didn't get along well with the skipper, but it's a personal matter (not all characters are taken). The final bill of extra expenses, in my opinion, was not totally crystal clear. I had fun with my family, I took fantastic baths in equally beautiful coves. So overall it was a positive experience.
