Experience the Capraia Squid Festival aboard a sailboat: a special opportunity to reach the island by sea and participate in one of the most characteristic end-of-season celebrations. Between sailing, local traditions, squid fishing, and a festive atmosphere, it will be a weekend unlike any other, to be enjoyed between land and sea.

  • Plan
    From Thursday 31/10 to Sunday 01/11
    We'll be attending the Capraia Squid Festival, the closing celebration for the island's tourism industry and our seasonal closure.
    Boarding is scheduled for late Thursday afternoon, so that we can organize the galley.
    On Friday we will set sail for Capraia to take part in the infamous Squid Festival
    On Saturday, in addition to other activities on the island, we will participate in the nighttime squid fishing competition (meaning it's in the dark, but it ends around 8 pm); in the evening there will also be a Halloween party.
    On Sunday we will sail on the return route with arrival in Piombino expected in the afternoon.

    All nights in Capraia will be in the port where we have reserved the place
    We are waiting for you on board!!!!

    I chose this vacation because I didn't have much time to organize, I wanted to enjoy the beautiful sea as much as possible and above all I wanted to meet new people. I had all this and much more... thanks also to the presence of the Captain, who is also an experience worth living. Thank you ❤️

    It was a positive and carefree week: the captain and crew were top notch!! We visited beautiful places surrounded by nature! The only disappointment was some bad weather, but that didn't dampen our desire to have fun! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a different kind of vacation!
