This experience, in a nutshell

Our weekend to Elba trip starts on Friday and includes two nights on board with a return late afternoon or early evening on Sunday. The departure time target is as early as possible on Friday but will be adjusted according to the requirements of the guests.

Heading towards the Elba, we either point towards Enfola or Portazzurro depending on the wind with the second night being used to head to the other location. Either way we will make sure there is time to enjoy the bays, the paddleboards and some snorkeling during the weekend.

As stated, weather controls the routes. I aim to provide as close a match to this outline route as possible, but I also aim to provide a comfortable ride along with as much actual sailing as possible (I really try to use the engine as little as possible!). Therefore, some destinations may not be reached during any specific trip and/or the order of destinations can vary.

There is no need for you to have experience of sailing or navigation. However if you prefer to lend a hand or learn about sailing, I am happy to help you do so.

I like to keep our routes flexible to allow for the desires of the guests and the weather.

The weekend trip is of course limited by the time available but I will do my best to show the best side of sailing in the Tuscan archipelago while fitting into the chosen format

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

Wonderful sailing weekend! Excellent weather, full sails and pleasant company. Anthony is a very capable skipper and always active as well as having a winning sense of humor!! He always tried to satisfy every request, gave directions on the places seen and on boat life, He is very nice and .... last but not least.... A great chef! He has always cooked tasty and varied dishes, also taking care of the presentation !! And to think that you found yourself on board vegans, intolerant to fish and more!

Wonderful holiday from all points of view! A well-structured itinerary, with not too long journeys, but at the same time enough to enjoy the sailing trip, and enchanting stops in the most evocative places on the island of Elba. Antony is a prepared skipper with a lot of experience, but above all he is a nice person. We immediately found ourselves in tune, and living together on the boat was simple. and pleasant. Antony did not limit himself to driving the boat, but he dedicated himself to us 100%: he entertained us, especially the boys, involving us in the management of the boat, entertaining us during the day with baths, swimming with masks, visiting caves, water skiing with the tender, stand-up paddle; and in the evening with games and chats. He is also a great cook, every day was a different culinary experience with dishes from all over the world, and he was able to adapt to our needs without problems (gluten-free cuisine for celiac disease). The boat was spacious enough for our group of 2 adults and 4 kids (3 cabins, each with its own bathroom), but we would easily fit a seventh person in the common space. Extra costs have been kept to a minimum, despite some trips made by motor due to lack of wind. We would absolutely recommend a holiday with Antony. We will definitely be back!
