Sailing the Mediterranean

A sailing cruise is the perfect vacation to fully enjoy life at sea: you dont’ need to worry about busy beaches, parking, finding a spot to eat. You can dive as soon as you wake up: there is nothing between you and the sea.

Sailing in Northern Sardinia and Corsica

Northern Sardinia and Corsica are a sailing paradise: clear waters, fair winds, and tens of little islands to find shelter for the night. Some people are scared of sailing in the Bonifacio Strait, and chartering a boat with an experienced skipper is indeed necessary: the bays are full of hidden rocks and the wind can play tricks. But Omero has been sailing here for over fifteen years, and we guarantee that you will experience real and relaxed sailing.

Omero is a great chef too, and you will enjoy Italian lunches and dinners on board, sorrounded by an amazing sea and by nature only. We also spend a night or two in some of the most carachteristic marinas of the area: you can spend a fun night out visiting the amazing old city of Bonifacio and listening to live music in the narrow streets of the old city center.

A week sailing in Sardinia and Corsica

Day 1 – Before dining on board you’ll have time to settle and get to know the boat. Omero and Sara will brief you on everything you need to know about your sailing week.

Day 2 –We set sails heading to Caprera, and we anchor in one of its beautiful bays for a dive and lunch. In the afternoon we sail to the island of La Maddalena, and reach a harbour protected for the night.

Day 3 – We sail across the Bonifacio strait, a real sailing myth, with its constant winds and amazing landscape. We reach the exclusive island of Cavallo in Corsica for lunch and for a dive in its crystal clear waters. In the afternoon we sail towards the beautiful bay of Rondinara, where we’ll spend the night anchored in front of the round, white beach.

Day 4 – We’ll continue sailing among the islands of the Bonifacio Strait and reach Lavezzi for the night. Lavezzi is a desert island, made of huge stones carved by the winds, covered in flowers and grass. A red and white lighthouse illuminates the strait at night. It is an absolutely stunning view.

Day 5 – We’ll spend the morning in Lavezzi, and you can choose among different bays to dive, beaches to sunbathe, or you can walk around the island visiting. After lunch we’ll sail towards Bonifacio, where we’ll spend the night in the marina and have fun in one of the many bars of the old city. The arrival at Bonifacio by sail is a memory for life, we’ll gibe in front of the tall, white cliff where the old city lays and enter the narrow, long creek of the marina, repaired by all winds.

Day 6 – We’ll sail to isola Piana: the water is so clear and turquoise, and the sand so white that you’ll think you are in the Caribbean sea or somewhere in the Indian ocean. You can also visit the rests of an ancient roman villa right above the beach. After lunch we’ll sail back to Sardinia an spend the night in the island of Razzoli or Budelli, depending on the direction of the wind.

Day 7 – Fridays usually start with a morning dive at the Pink beach, and continue with lunch in the bays of one of the islands we have not touched yet, Santa Maria or Spargi. In the afternoon we sail back to Palau. You’re free to disembark when we get to Palau or you can spend one more night on board and disembark by 8.30am on Saturday.

Enjoy the sea...

... and the food

Sailing in Tuscany & le Cinque Terre

Porto Venere and le Cinque Terre don’t need an introduction: their beauty is known all around the world. They’re also a good spot for sailing! Gentle breezes usally let us sail for an hour or two, find a good bay for lunch and a dive. In the afternoon we anchor in front of one of the beautiful little towns to enjoy a walk and an aperitivo.

During the longer week ends (italian bank holidays) we can sail a little more and reach Capraia, one of islands of the arcipelago in front of Tuscany. It’s a green gem and the view from the old town is stunning.

How to reach us
Marina di Carrara is located close to Pisa and Florence airports, and can be easily reached by train or car (you can park in the marina area).
Embark/Disembark
Boarding is every Friday evening or Saturday morning. We return at Marina di Cararra on Sunday afternoon.
