This experience, in a nutshell

We will close the summer with a beautiful flotilla on the Hyères islands , a true corner of paradise where the sea is crystal clear. We will take the last baths to greet the new season.
The sailing boat is ideal for discovering the archipelago which includes the three islands of Porquerolles - Port Cros - lle Du Levant . One more beautiful than the other and certainly unique in the Mediterranean landscape. This area is great for yachtsmen Porquerolles has exceptional beaches in the north, surrounded by turquoise waters. The island can also be explored by bicycle. Port Cros hosts a marine and terrestrial national park Lle Du Levant is not very accessible as it is a military site. It is however possible to go to the north-western part where there is a naturist village with its own beach.

We are waiting for you to start at the most with the Winter season. Summer is over but we still want the sea, sun, sailing, new and old friends!

WE WILL SAIL IN THE FLEET WITH TWO SUPER BOATS!
You're one of us??
PORQUEROLLES ISLAND:
The beaches on the island of Porquerolles are certainly among the most beautiful. There are also some beautiful coves on the east side of the island. Do not miss the bike ride to discover the interior of the island, very green. Here are some beaches:
Bay Courtade - A few steps east of the village of Porquerolles and about 800 meters from the port is this beach formed by a long strip of sand which allows you to relax and swim. This is very exposed to the mistral but is well known for its proximity to the village. On the edge of the beach the tamarisk, eucalyptus and pine trees make a fine show, giving a unique beauty to this beach, you are invaded by Mediterranean scents. Of course they also serve to shade on summer days.
Notre Dame Bay - Located about 3.5 km east of the village, this beach is best known as the most beautiful beach on the island of Porquerolles, in fact its photos can be found in all the magazines that talk about Porquerolles.
Silver Beach - This beautiful beach of pearly white sand is not far from the village (about 1.5 km) to the west. The beach is surrounded by maritime pine trees. It is a bit more lively than the others, there is also a club / restaurant. Here too we are surrounded by a turquoise sea.
Lobster Bay - Located in the west of the island. Lobster Beach has two beach sectors. One on the north side of the island is the white beach and the other on the south of the island is the black beach. It is also a protected anchorage point for all boaters who visit the island of Porquerolles. The black beach gets its name from the color of its red sand. The black beach, being smaller, offers a more typical anchorage and a nice intimate atmosphere.

PORT CROS ISLAND
The stop and visit of the Port Cros island is highly regulated, but if we were able to anchor in Port-Man, for one night, we will have the opportunity to stay under a starry sky. It is a wild bay located in the eastern part of Port Cros. The island has about fifty inhabitants, whose activity is partly linked to tourism and control of the park. There is a small harbor in Port Cros and also some buoys in the adjacent bay. Often in hot weather it is very crowded with boaters. It is wonderful to go hiking along the marked trails (forbidden to leave the route) to discover the fauna and flora

LLE DU LEVANT ISLAND
As mentioned before, the island is under the domain of the French navy and therefore inaccessible to the public. In any case, in addition to the naturist village, which is located in the north-west, there are also two beaches, Plage les Grottes and Plage de Sable Levant

Wonderful places, unique islands, each one with different characteristics. The boat was really nice and big, with some malfunctions but nothing compromising. Too bad I didn't take advantage of every day to visit coves, the last day we were in Capo d'Orlando to avoid the queue at the refueling, I understand the needs but ... The only flaw is the feeling that a tour was planned but without being interested in the opportunities of the area, you get off and you don't know what to see or how to move, you spend the night in Lipari and the next evening there is the feast of the Patron that you miss ... Navigation yes but organization no. Competent skipper who always made me feel safe while sailing, I did not like the requests from the galley and the lack of knowledge about extra navigation information. The holiday was described as a flotilla but a separation between the two boats is deliberately maintained, which did not create problems for me but it is only for fairness.

I would have liked more information and indications on places to visit and more interaction with the catamaran, since it was a flotilla holiday. Thanks to Gabriele, an experienced skipper, I have always felt safe even in the face of the unexpected. Seeing the Aeolian Islands like this, I was not enthusiastic but I was lucky to have experienced, collaborative and nice people on the boat!

Wonderful experience and above expectations! The skipper Fabrizio, in addition to being very experienced, perfectly interpreted the group's wishes by taking us every day to coves with spectacular water and different but intact and wild locations (including a natural park where everyone left their hearts), and alternating in a balanced way the much-loved roadsteads with stops in the ports, in which there was no lack of chore characteristics. We ate very well because in the lucky group there were very good chefs who prepared pasta, flatbread, fish and other delicacies every day! The boat was comfortable and organized! An experience for which I would leave today and that I recommend to all lovers of the sea experienced on a boat!
