Mediterranean Hands on Sailing Experience
Enjoy hands on sailing and meet new people.
Do you want to meet new people, learn sailing, improve your skills or build milage and recharge your batteries? You can do all this and more on this 7 day berth charter on an owner skippered yacht. We can take up to 4 people on a one week trip along the Tuscan coast and to some of the most beautiful islands in the Med. We just go where the wind takes us to maximise the sailing aspects of this trip but also leave some time to enjoy some swimming and snorkelling in crystal clear water. Your skill levels are not important.Everybody has the opportunity to participate in the sailing and learn new skills.
We are based at Puntone di Scarlino in the Bay of Follonica near Punta Ala, one of the prime sailing areas in Italy. From here we reach Elba in 3 hours with islands like Giglio and the Tuscan main land offering other ideal sailing opportunities. A wide selection of beautiful beaches and bays, ideal for snorkelling and swimming are part of the areas' marine and nature reserves with ample wildlife to watch including dolphins.
