For August, which is certainly the most awaited month, we have decided to play it safe, every week we will take you to admire what are perhaps the two queens of the archipelago and which certainly offer us a 360-degree experience, from sailing to swimming. from walks to trekking, passing through small villages full of life and local history.
We will cover the 35 miles that separate us from Capraia sailing, having fun and why not, trying to catch a nice lunch! Once there we will begin the discovery of one of the most beautiful and wild islands of the Tuscan archipelago, we will anchor in breathtaking coves such as Cala Rossa , Cala del Ceppo and della Mortula and many others.
We will immerse ourselves in its uncontaminated landscapes that make it a small trekking paradise , we will visit the port with the characteristic village with restaurants and shops selling local products and the upper town with the castle and postcard views.
From Capraia another sail in the open sea to then begin the tour of Elba !
To the north, in addition of course to the intriguing capital of the island, Portoferraio , rich in history and charm, we can sail in the beautiful gulfs of Viticcio, Biodola and Procchio , visit Marciana Marina and San Andrea , delightful seaside villages with typical restaurants and shops . After Punta Polveraia we will then be in the western part of the island, the wildest and most uncontaminated area, the steep rocky walls and the beautiful seabed guide us to the discovery of places such as Pomonte , a stop at the wreck is obligatory, and going further down we arrive at the spectacular beach of Fetovaia .
Continuing on, you enter the beautiful south side of Elba, with its three large gulfs: Marina di Campo, Lacona and Golfo Stella . All three are different and fascinating in their own way, we can find all kinds of backdrops, beautiful towns to explore and even old abandoned mines like those of Capoliveri in Punta dei Rialti.
Rounding Punta dei Rialti we enter the east side which is certainly no less and offers us other beauties of nature such as the islets of Ortano and Palmaiola or the great gulf of Porto Azzurro , where we can anchor and go ashore to visit the country, the most chic of the island! Going up we find ancient mining villages such as Rio Marina and Cavo .
The itineraries can satisfy both the more experienced and those approaching the world of sailing for the first time. They will be days of relaxation, nature and fun in company.
In fact, we will sail in a flotilla, one more opportunity to socialize and why not, challenge the other crew in short regattas.

My boat is a 1991 Gib Sea 442.
It is one of the last projects of the Gib Sea shipyard before it was taken over by another more well-known and large French shipyard.
The boat has the characteristics and construction qualities of the period, when they were not yet mass produced and the attention to solidity and marine qualities were important. It is therefore a safe boat and designed to sail on almost all occasions.
Internally it is divided into four cabins, two double aft and two with bunk beds in the bow. It has three bathrooms, two with toilet and one with a comfortable shower.
Solar panels and a wind turbine make us self-sufficient for electricity.
It has 600 liters of water and a purification plant that makes it drinkable (so we don't have to buy plastic bottles).
The L-shaped kitchen has everything you need, two burners, an oven and two fridges.
The dinette is comfortable and 10 people can eat comfortably at the table.
The real teak interiors have the warmth and sensations of a welcoming and homely environment.
Under each bed and sofa, as well as in the cockpit, there are large lockers, in addition to the sail locker for an almost unlimited stowage space.
The Yanmar engine, one of the best in the industry, was installed new in 2016.
