We are waiting for you on board for a wonderful sailing holiday, immersed in the beauty of the Gulf of Alassio . We will embark at the Alassio marina, which has a large car park, at 9.30, accommodation on board with a welcome briefing. At 09.40 we set sail for the Gallinara island to visit it. Afterwards, we will anchor close to it to swim in a fantastic sea, those who wish can try to go on a SUP. At 12.30 return to port. Greetings and hugs, which almost always become moving as I become attached to my guests.

A special day! Daniele's passion for sailing, the company of his wife Carmen, the sympathy of his son Edoardo and a super time were the ingredients that made this Sunday really special ... Thank you very much... Carmen's final aperitif was then the perfect conclusion to this beautiful day.

First experience in Sailing. what to say... unforgettable day! wind and high waves were not lacking to make an afternoon exciting. Riccardo, Carmen and little Edoardo made the experience complete. delicious and abundant aperitif with quality products. SUPER RECOMMENDED !!! Ps. John number 1

Fun day, very demanding sea and wind but very safe and comfortable boat. Close-knit crew, we sailed for hours between very high waves. Thanks to Daniele who never questioned the exit despite the weather, to Carmen who at the end of the day prepared a Super aperitif and to Edoardo who kept company with my son Tommaso of the same age. Experience to be repeated, see you soon!!

We had a wonderful family day, the boat is recently spacious and comfortable, it was very nice to pilot the boat with the supervision of the captain. Relaxation and adventure are guaranteed, the captain was considerate to meet our needs and to conclude a generous aperitif on the boat!!

What can I say, after years in which I no longer went by boat for fear of suffering from seasickness, I had the pleasure of finding myself spending a wonderful day! With Daniele and Carmen I fell into very good hands. They have always cared about how they were (very well!), they did not miss anything (between pleasant chatter and professionalism) and thanks to a surprising wind that came out on a flat day we also sailed in the gulf (an emotion for me indescribable). At the end could not miss a bath and a ride in Sup near the islet, and then leave room for the grand finale: a surprising aperitif offered on board before the return (on the lights of sunset). Wow! Highly recommended experience. I would do it again immediately, and I will do it again soon. Thanks again for everything!

I will certainly remember my first sailing trip thanks to Carmen and Daniele. Two really exquisite people, owners of a beautiful sailboat, clean and kept in perfect condition. Alassio is even more beautiful view like that! Thanks again, I will be back.

Despite the bad weather, Daniele and Carmen managed to make our sailing trip very pleasant. Equipped, prepared and very nice. We felt at home! Experience to be repeated. Thanks again

Ours was unfortunately an experience interrupted by bad weather: an intense and prolonged storm forced us to return to port shortly after departure. The weather forecast gave very few mm of rain, in fact a half-flood came down. Daniele was however very kind as he reimbursed us at his expense part of the expense. The only disappointment is not for Daniele but for Sailsquare that in cases like this should provide to reimburse, at least partially, customers. If Daniel had not come to meet us, we would have lost all the amount spent. We hope to be luckier with the weather at the next opportunity... the desire to live a sailing experience will have to wait a little longer ... Maybe next summer we will try again.

Daniele, Carmen and Edo are gorgeous! We had a nice day together. As if we had been friends for a long time! Very good aperitif prepared by Carmen. Edo always happy, teaching my daughters to use the SUP. Truly a day not to be forgotten! We will definitely be back.

Wonderful people, it's not just a sailing trip but it's really an experience! I highly recommend her

Fantastic day on a beautiful boat piloted by Daniele, very good skipper who guided us to discover the gulf and the island. A fantastic aperitif at sunset in front of the island of Gallinara prepared by Carmen closed the trip in style. Absolutely to be redone!

Great Day Daniele as soon as we left the port hoisted the sails and thanks to the day with a nice fresh wind He immediately made us understand what it means to sail (only the sound of water on the keel and the wind sliding on the sails). A compliment also to Carmen always attentive to the needs of the crew. Not to mention the wonderful aperitif. Last but not least, Sicilian cannoli for everyone!!!! Thanks again to Daniele and Carmen

Daniele and Carmen were splendid, the boat definitely beautiful and comfortable. Very willing to make you live a day to remember. Also you can find everything that allows you to have fun if you decide to dive in for a bath. Top the aperitif with selected and refined products. You can see that they have a natural propensity for customer care. Highly recommended

Definitely recommend this beautiful experience in the company of Daniele, his wife Carmen and little Edoardo. A beautiful family that collaborates to make the day perfect. Daniele impeccable skipper, Carmen caring as only a mom can be and Edoardo always ready to play keeping you company all day as well as being a great teacher of SUP ???? Excellent aperitif at the end of the day, good and very abundant. Super recommended we will definitely see each other again.

Chapeau This is the word that came to my mind once I got off at the port, I'M HONEST, I'M NOT THE TYPE WHO LEAVES REVIEWS, I DON'T LIKE IT BOTH FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE, but here I'm obliged to do it, I wouldn't feel okay not to do it. Let's start with Daniele (affectionately called by me THE Captain) in addition to a great Maritime experience, with his way of always posing in his own way and with sympathy, he has the ability to make you feel at ease right away, which is not easy especially with people you do not know, and CARMEN, (the queen), on the other hand, knows how to make you feel pampered, and why not, even a little spoiled, always attentive to the physical well-being even of the crew, a very exquisite person. For our group I'm sure it's just a goodbye. IF YOU HAVE READ UP TO HERE, I JUST TELL YOU TO CLICK BOOK, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT

Wonderful experience. Daniele, Carmen and Edoardo are very kind, super hospitable, they welcome you on their boat, really beautiful and comfortable, making you feel immediately at ease. Daniele also explains the various maneuvers in a precise and careful way during navigation. Top also the aperitif at the end of the day. Recommended to spend a pleasant day of relaxation in the company

Beautiful experience, to be repeated! With Daniele, Carmen and the super Edoardo you immediately feel at ease on the beautiful and comfortable boat so much so that it seems to have always known them. Relaxing day, very pleasant company, bath in front of the beautiful island and even with little wind we had a lot of fun. The port is also very convenient, you can put your car safely in the parking lot of the port 10 meters from the boat. And what about the aperitif? A real dinner! Well done Carmen!

Really interesting and exciting experience. Daniele and Carmen, and little Edoardo, are really welcoming and nice. A day of relaxation and sailing. Daniele, proud of his nautical skills, meticulously explains every maneuver to you. super aperitif at sunset with delicious stuffed focaccia, Sicilian cannoli and glass of brut ... an experience among "friends", to be repeated as soon as possible.

My wife, son and I had such a wonderful day with Daniele, his wife Carmen, their son Edouardo and two other travellers. The day was very relaxing. We swam in the sea, fed fish, and ate lovely food made by Carmen. We even got to "skipper" the boat for a bit. Edouardo and my son didn't speak the same language but they got on well. Edouardo is such a nice boy and it made the day even more enjoyable for my son. I thoroughly recommend this trip. Thank you, Daniele.

Wonderful day between the island Gallinara and Capo mele. Daniele and his family were as wonderful as we had known each other for years. an experience to be redone even for several days.
