Sicily, island Magna, is one of the most beautiful places of our
seas surrounded by numerous smaller islands immersed in the blue.
Wild and authentic islands that will amaze you with their rich
history and culinary traditions. We offer you a sailing holiday in
the Egadi Islands and south Sicily on board our brand new Angelica,
a comfortable Bavaria 46 Cruiser with 4 cabins, 4 bathrooms and all
the amenities to better enjoy a summer cruise. We will sail in the
blue waters of the Egadi sea, which thanks to particular
hydrodynamic conditions, is among the cleanest and clearest in the
Mediterranean and hosts a rich and varied marine flora and fauna.
Boarding in Trapani, easily reachable by ferry or plane. We will
sail between Levanto, Marettimo and Favignana to discover pristine
bays and fishing villages where you can taste the typical local
products. On land history, art and ancient culture will be the
right compendium for a cruise in the true heart of the
Mediterranean
Check out the crew!

Truly wonderful experience made even more memorable by Federico who in addition to being a good teacher and expert captain has also proved to be an excellent travel companion, has enriched our evenings with his company and his stories and has always recommended places to eat cheap and delicious. Holiday highly recommended for the exclusivity of the activities carried out and the beautiful places visited!
Professional skipper technically but really not very empathetic and not very sociable. Sometimes rude in ways. It was not easy to agree with him on what to do and where to disembark so much so that for 3 days you never got off the boat despite being asked several times. The tender has not only never been used as "uncomfortable to disembark us all", but it has never been inflated or put a water. Few stops for the bath and always very far from the shore. In a week we never went down to a beach. Veronica, Simona and Federica
Ours was an unlucky week because unfortunately we had an engine problem that forced us to the ground for a few days. Skipper Guido was committed to solving the problem and was always professional, transparent and cooperative.
When we finally left it was all very nice and we spent fun moments and sailed in harmony.
Even in navigation Guido was very good and always available.
Holiday to be repeated definitely.
Our skipper was Guido, a very prepared guy! Great captain on board we were all very much in tune and he made us feel really like at home . Lots of laughter and relaxation. Beautiful experience to repeat
Our skipper was Guido who accompanied us on a nice ride between Elba, Corsica and Capraia.
Although we did not know the other members of the crew, we immediately found ourselves in full harmony and this cooperation allowed us to overcome even some unexpected and difficulties that arose during the week (limited space on board for 9 people, some problems of the boat a little dated, long wait to moor in Capraia). For me it was a wonderful experience and I keep an unforgettable memory of it.
The actual skipper was not Federico but another member of Veladoc named Gianfranco competent as skipper but not in my opinion suitable for the management of tourists / crew not experts and / or trained in sailing on a sailboat as he gave orders with inappropriate tones taking into account that there was no initial briefing explaining how the cruise was carried out.
It was a nice week, too bad we went sailing little.
The only drawback, the tender supplied, which in addition to having to make more trips because it could not bring more than two people, deflated continuously and we had to row. So you can't be sure
Amazing experience, to be repeated absolutely! Fantastic places, wind at 30 knots, many hours of navigation and sailing school, some magnificent evenings at anchor and others in port to visit new places.
Thanks veladoc, see you soon!
What can I say, a wonder!
Starting from the super competence, professionalism and sympathy of Federico who was excellent from start to finish and then not to mention the fabulous places that he gave us the opportunity to admire.
Super recommended, unique experience that I will definitely do again.
Unfortunately, although a trained sailor and a sailing teacher, Federico did not know how to take care of his crew. I would suggest it to those who want to do sailing courses and certainly not for a holiday where good humor should reign and not continuous criticism of everything and everyone.
The feeling was that he did not have much interest in making us feel on vacation but only to reach the final port, probably when selling a transfer for a holiday the crew expects more.
Denied many experiences that would certainly have lightened the 8/12 hours of navigation per day (no use of the tender, no bathroom stops, many ports and few bays despite the favorable weather conditions, no walkway,...).
This time it went like this...
The skipper Federico is very professional, a true "sea wolf", capable in interpersonal relationships.
Very scrupulous about safety and attentive to the needs of the crew.
Positive experience to recommend to those who deeply love the sea.
Max, a very prepared and professional skipper, eager to make his skills and experience available, has never missed an opportunity to teach sailing to those who were beginners or to increase the knowledge of those who already had sailing experience. He put at ease and tried to amalgamate a very heterogeneous and sometimes challenging crew. Definitely good !!!!!!
Nice holiday skipper Max very prepared and professional. Nice crew
