We will accompany you among the wonders of this archipelago
uncontaminated, to discover the Aeolian Islands e of the incredible
beauty of this land of volcanoes . A different island every day, a
new emotion. And at sunset: an informal aperitif on the boat to
taste the wine excellences of the region. We set sail from Marina
di Portorosa , an elegant and modern, located on the northern coast
of Sicily e easily reachable from Catania airport via shuttle. From
here we will leave to head towards Vulcano, Lipari, Panarea,
Stromboli and Salina and then back to Portorosa. A social evening
in Panarea , a night out in boat to admire the sciara di fuoco in
Stromboli , a dive in Cala di Pollara in Salina (location of "Il
Postino) or a walk on the top of Vulcano , are just a few moments
of your holiday with us. Between an aperitif at sunset, a spaghetti
dinner on the boat and a dip with a full moon, time passes
pleasantly. On board the cook will take care of preparing the meals
main. If you are an already formed group there is possibility to
book the whole boat and host up to 8 people: six people in the
cabin and two in the dinette . I wait for you on board!
My boat is a 45-foot sloop of the Jeanneau shipyards, equipped with 4 double cabins and two bathrooms. The boat, designed by Philippe Briand, is designed for a comfortable cruise. Ease of operation and spacious interiors are its strengths for a pleasant and comfortable cruise. The boat comfortably accommodates 8 people who can get to 10 wanting to also take advantage of the two seats dinette. Our choice, except for the requests of guests who rent the entire boat, is to accommodate a maximum of 6 people, to ensure maximum comfort during the holiday. The layout of my boat includes 4 double cabins, two forward (one of which reserved for the captain and his assistant) and two aft. The two bathrooms both have double access: - direct access from the aft cabins - access from the dinette The dinette is bright and very large, equipped with a table that can be folded down to make it possible to make two more beds. The kitchen has a large worktop, double fridge, oven and 2 gas burners. A Wi-Fi network allows guests to always be connected.

Giacomo e Laura ci hanno reso possibile una vacanza di sette giorni a dir poco memorabile.
Siamo partiti in famiglia, con due figlie di 15 e 12 anni. La navigazione in barca a vela con Giacomo e Laura tra le isole Eolie è stata esattamente quello che ci aspettavamo, e in più, è stato in viaggio ricco di vini buoni e piatti tipici siciliani preparati da loro.
Giacomo è uno skipper non solo responsabile e professionale, ma insieme con Laura sono stati molto divertenti, amichevoli e sempre aperti a realizzare i nostri desideri.
Assolutamente da ripetere!
Aver fatto quest'esperienza a fine settembre ringrazio fin da subito il tempo che di giorno in giorno ci graziava con un sole splendido.
Ringrazio i partecipante Viola, Rita, Andrea e Alberto, persone magnifiche.
Giacomo lo Skipper è persona estroversa, allegra e molto pratica per ogni problematica, ha sempre in testa proposte alternative per farci gustare le incantevoli isole Eolie, ottimo cuoco di bordo con le sue ricche insalate giornaliere e i suoi primi piatti di pasta gustosi e per nulla scontati.
Si nota la formazione da sommelier proponendoci ad ogni serata una gamma di vitigni siculi e eoliani pregiati.
Esperienza che consiglierei a tutti
We boarded the sailboat of Giacomo in July 2019 in Porto Rosa with my wife and our three kids (8, 8 and 5 years old) and we also had the pleasure of having Laura accompanying Giacomo. The 6 days cruise was fabulous and the programme prepared by Giacomo was perfect as it was a mix of visit of the Islands and also great moments for bathing in the warm waters around the boat, absolutely fantastic for us and the kids who really enjoyed the whole trip. The night navigation around the Island of Stromboli, and the night before at the Osservatorio Restaurant was just amazing!!!! Giacomo is a very pleasant skipper in the sens that he is always calm, patient, relaxed and smiling even when he needs to manoeuvre the big boat in the marinas. We felt safe and in good hands with him which is very important when sailing with kids on board obviously. He was very kind, cool and fun with our children who really enjoyed him. Many thanks to Laura who prepared the fantastic Pasta dishes! We highly recommend Giacomo and his boat for the Eolian Islands Cruise.-----------------------------------------------SKIPPER GIACOMO'S REPLY-----------------------------------------------Dear Sebastien and Valerie,
I'm happy you had an amazing week on board with me.
You are a wonderful family and I wish I could always have guests like you.
You are every skipper's dream family to have on board
Voglio ringraziare Giacomo per la fantastica esperienza che mi ha fatto vivere nonostante fosse la prima volta che salivo su una barca a vela .veramente top come skipper e come persona .lo consiglio vivamente
Bellissima crociera. Ci siamo divertiti
Tutti e abbiamo visto posti unici.
Grazie di cuore per lo splendido lavoro
e per la dedizione con cui ti sei mosso
Per la tranquillità e la sicurezza dei tuoi
Ospiti a bordo.
Ho conosciuto Giacomo durante una crociera nel mediterraneo qualche anno fa e ho avuto il piacere di rivederlo in questa esperienza tra le isole Eolie. La formula che propone mi è piaciuta tantissimo: un mix di vela, natura ed esperienza gourmet. ho ritrovato il suo stile e la sua capacità di rendere semplice la vita di bordo per tutti gli ospiti.
vacanza all'insegna della natura, il buon vino e tanto pesce fresco. E' stato piacevole ritrovare un compagno di viaggio di un paio di crociere nel Mediterraneo, Che mi ha fatto scoprire angoli inconsueti delle Eolie conciliando gli interessi diversi degli ospiti.
Ero già stata alle Eolie ma questa volta le ho vissute da un altro punto di vista. Mi sono sentita a casa.
Grazie capitano Jack! Alla prossima avventura
Non conoscevo nessuno dell'equipaggio ed ero un po' titubante.
Giacomo mi ha rassicurata dicendomi che erano tutte persone interessanti.
Mi sono fidata...una bella esperienza di vita, di mare, di natura!
Ho viaggiato con Giacomo, che è stato molto carino e accogliente, anche con il nostro piccolo Nigel, di 9 mesi. Purtroppo non ha molta esperienza di navigazione e quindi abbiamo girato intorno agli stessi 2 porticcioli per tutta la settimana, per evitare un improbabile e fantomatico temporale che non è mai arrivato. Bravo cuoco, ma poco avvezzo a gestire un equipaggio. -----------------------------------------------------------------------RISPOSTA DELLO SKIPPER GIACOMO:
Caro Graziano,
mi dispiace che la mia massima cura e prudenza nel garantire una bella e sicura esperienza di vacanza a te e alla tua famiglia, sia stata interpretata come
"abbiamo girato intorno agli stessi 2 porticcioli per tutta la settimana,
per evitare un improbabile e fantomatico temporale che non è mai arrivato"
L'esperienza era da fare rigorosamente in completa sicurezza vista la piccolissima età di Nigel -9 mesi- e il periodo di forte instabilità meteo nell'area delle isole Eolie.
Abbiamo schivato il maltempo ed evitato a tuo figlio e alla tua famiglia 25-30 nodi di vento e onde di quasi 2 metri.
Il marinaio saggio, se può, evita il maltempo. Lo stolto lo ricerca.
In compenso, mi spiace molto leggere le parole
"…non ha molta esperienza di navigazione…" e "…poco avvezzo a gestire un equipaggio… in quanto scritte da te che, a tuo dire, non eri mai salito prima su una barca a vela e non conosci assolutamente l'arcipelago delle Eolie.
We had the most amazing and truly wonderful experience.
Giacomo went out of his way to insure that our week on his lovely Boat was memorable , happy and fun .
He made us feel totally at home and it felt like we were sharing his beautiful boat with friends .
We had a amazing week visiting the Aeolian Islands in Sicily and Giacomo was always ready with useful information about each island .
We would certainly recommend this boat and Skipper .
Special thanks also to Antonio who came along for the sail with us .
una vacanza indimenticabile, grazie skipper e sempre con il vento in poppa
