Mileage trip from Brindisi to Siracusa approx. 300 NM

Mileage trip with approx. 300 NM which is also suitable for "beginners" as we mostly sail "close to the coast".
However, you should have basic sailing knowledge. This means that you should be able to distinguish windward from leeward, be able to tie common sailor's knots such as bowline, cat line, etc., know how to properly attach a winch or cleat and have "some" sailing experience.

Since we will also be sailing offshore on this trip, it is essential to have your own oilskins. It is also essential to keep watch during night trips.

Airports:
To board, Brindisi (BDS)
Getting off at Catania (CTA)

Plan

We start in Brindisi and sail southeast. We go around the heel of the boot: after passing Leuca, we cross the Gulf of Taranto for about 70 nm. Our first stop after about 140 NM is in Crotone.
From Crotone we then continue along the sole of the boot for about 70 NM to Roccella Ionica, where we make our next overnight stop before the final stretch to Siracusa, which is another 100 NM away.
