Cruise with professional skipper in the Tuscan Archipelago

Starting from Punta Ala we will sail towards the Island of Elba to explore wonderful and uncrowded bays, we will make stops to snorkel and explore a wreck and in the evening maybe I will take you ashore with the dinghy to visit the characteristic villages of the island for then head to Corsica, a French island kissed by the Italian sun!

An island rich in history and ancient traditions emerges in the middle of the Mediterranean to be discovered. I believe that wild land and unspoiled nature are the characteristics thanks to which we navigators are driven by the curiosity to know and enjoy its wonderful silent bays and its splendid crystalline sea. An island to be discovered both by day on land and by sea and last but not least in the evening to discover its vast gastronomic culture! On this cruise we will combine these activities as much as possible making it an interactive and fun vacation!

This whole ecotourism trip made on a sailing boat has another, indescribable flavor for us. Seeing is believing!

On our return we will stop in Capraia, a wild island, with just over 300 inhabitants, it is considered a small earthly paradise, a pearl of the Tuscan Archipelago to be explored both on land and by sea. Here the rhythms are slow, marked by fishing, swimming in the sea, chatting until late at night under the starry sky and the ship that arrives twice a day. We feed on the beauty and freedom that this island gives us.

On this cruise you will have both the opportunity to enjoy its wonderful coves in total relaxation and to make a nice hike in the hinterland to discover silent paths and breathtaking views.
