review about 7 days in the north of Sardinia .... between relaxation and the emerald sea August 2022
with Alberto B. 51 years old
The Pontine islands have kept their typically Mediterranean charm unchanged with multicolored volcanic rocks, jagged coasts and transparent and deep waters. Little inhabited during the year, but not in the summer when they are the destination of many tourists attracted by exclusive locations.
The reduced distance from each other and from the coast makes these islands an ideal destination for a weekend on a sailing boat.
The depths are of a variety and beauty never seen before: a show for those who are passionate about diving.
During the weekend we will be able to: try a small restaurant in the port and taste typical Ponzese dishes such as spaghetti with fellone crab and cianfotta; visit the characteristic houses dug into the rock of Palmarola, inhabited only in the summer; discover beaches, caves and cliffs accessible only from the sea.
Day 1 - Thursday
We meet on the boat and after having seen the boat we do a minimum of galley for the cruise we are going to experience.
We do a small briefing on the safety equipment and establish a program based on the weather conditions. We set sail in the direction of Palmarola where we will drop anchor in the most beautiful and sheltered bay of the island, such as Cala Francese or Cala dei Gabbiani.
Day 2 - Friday
Awakened by the sound of the sea we will find ourselves in a true natural paradise, breakfast in the cockpit and after the first swims we will go to discover the most magical places that the island can offer, we will have the opportunity to choose between hiking to the beautiful caves or going down to land for a walk to see the characteristic houses carved into the rock and admire a breathtaking landscape.
Day 3 - Saturday
We move to Ponza where we will have the opportunity to go ashore to rent a moped or stop in some other beautiful bay such as Chiaia di Luna, Cala di Lucia Rosa or the natural arch.
For those who want, I offer you the opportunity to spend a few hours admiring the stars without any kind of light pollution in which I will be happy to reveal the secrets to reading the stars.
Day 4 - Sunday
It's the last day of the holiday and before leaving for Nettuno we make a stop at the Cathedrals of Palmarola a magical place where everyone always gets excited every time where, here we take the opportunity to enjoy the last lunch with an indescribable view for its charm. During the return journey we will have the opportunity to confront each other and share the most beautiful emotions experienced together.
The program may vary according to weather conditions and the needs of the crew.

How do I get to the port of embarkation?
It is possible to arrive at the marina of Nettuno both by train and by car.
By train it is very convenient as the station is just a 5-minute walk from the marina.
By car, you can leave your luggage unloaded right in front of the boat and park your car either inside the marina at a cost of €15 a day, or alternatively just outside the marina at a cost of €6 a day, or even in a free car park at minutes from the marina.
What to bring?
– Soft luggage and without wheels
– Enough underwear for vacation days
– 2-3 bathing suits
– 1 UV protective snorkel shirt
– 3-4 shirts and shorts
– 1 long trousers and 2 Bermuda shorts for men
– 1 long trousers and 2 comfortable dresses for women
– 1 sweatshirt or wool sweater for the evening
– 1 Kway or light waxed
– hat or cap
- Sun glasses
– 1 pair of boat shoes with clear soles
– 1 pair of flip flops
– 1 pair of sandals or shoes to go ashore
– 1 guest towel and a beach towel
– medicines for personal use
– biodegradable shampoo and shower gel
How is the galley organized?
For the galley I normally share a list if someone has special needs they can add it or alternatively get it at the marina discount.
Can children go on board?
Children are welcome on board, but they must respect common sense rules for the well-being of the entire crew.
What is the rate of the double cabin for single use?
The rate varies according to the period, in the low season it is normally free, in the high season it can cost 50% more up to 100% more.
Who cooks on board?
On board, we all take care of the kitchen together. A spirit of collaboration also means this. The skipper (Alberto) really likes to cook and sometimes he'll take care of preparing something especially for dinner, when the guests are enjoying the sunset in the bay at anchor. Then there will be those who will prepare the table, who will help in the kitchen and who will prepare the aperitif!
Do I need to have sailing experience to participate?
This experience is suitable for everyone, both for those who have no sailing experience, but also for those who have already had other experiences, the boat is very comfortable and it is also possible to learn the basics, the skipper will always be available to provide explanations and entice participants to love the sea and this magical world of sailing.
How will the experience take place in case of rain?
In case of rain you can plan to go ashore to see the town or stay on the boat organizing board games.
