Itinerary

A week-long charter sailing trip in Italy begins in Portorosa, Sicily, from where we set off to explore the fascinating Aeolian Islands. This region is renowned for its excellent sailing conditions, stable winds, and breathtaking views.

Our first destination is Lipari, the largest island in the archipelago, known for its picturesque bays and crystal-clear waters. Next, we visit Vulcano, where you can take a dip in the sulfur mud baths and hike up Gran Cratere to admire the spectacular landscapes.

Panarea, our next stop, enchants with its exclusive atmosphere and charming coves. From there, we head to Stromboli, where the nighttime eruptions of the active volcano illuminate the sky, offering an unforgettable spectacle.

Finally, we visit Salina, famous for its caper production and scenic vineyards, where you can taste the renowned local Malvasia wine.

Sailing around the Aeolian Islands is not just an adventure but also a challenge. The volcanic terrain makes anchoring demanding, but the reward is unforgettable views and the raw beauty of nature. During the voyage, you can immerse yourself in Italian culture – from exquisite cuisine to the warm hospitality of the locals.

A sailing trip through the Aeolian Islands offers the perfect combination of active recreation, a deep connection with nature, and the exploration of Italy's rich cultural heritage. It's a journey worth experiencing at least once in a lifetime.
