Sailing weekend in the blue sea of the Island of Elba

The style of the holiday is structured around sailing as much as possible, making guests learn the basics of navigation, trying to convey my true passion for sailing to everyone present.

It is not necessary to have experience with sailing or to have already sailed, with the desire to collaborate and the right spirit, this weekend will be perfect for learning the basics and spending wonderful holidays.

All navigation will be accompanied by moments of pure relaxation and good food, as well as the discovery of wonderful places on the Island of Elba that only our seas can offer us. For those who want, trekking can be organized in the various places that can be reached.

For those wishing to change departure dates or to extend the weekend by a few days, contact the skipper.
