Sergio and Julia save the day - Originally we had booked a different trip .. fortunately that one left before we arrived. Sergio and Julia saw us stranded at the pier and welcomed us on board. Whatever we missed out on could never compete with the beautiful, friendly and relaxing sailing that we had with Sergio and Julia. From the dive in clear water to the home-made lunch, this was an amazing experience!

Enjoying the water!! - Enjoyed the water. Unfortunately there was no wind so we didn't sail. Ivan and Carlo do everything they can to make sure you enjoy yourself. Good explanation of the area and delicious lunch. The cooling dip in the clear water was great!!

Great Sicilian experience - We had an amazing time on the boat tour on the Sicilian coast. We enjoyed traditional Sicilian food and a glass of Prosecco. We’ve stopped also to swim in the amazing blue water. Wonderful and informative staff, they took care of us made us feel great on the boat. Good luck to Ivan and his crew!

The best boat drive I had. - The Cruise, was very good. Ivan and his crew was very nice and calming. We started at 10:00 and than he explained us everything, what was on the boat and what we are doing. Ivan told us about the Lavarocks and the Lavacaves the history. When we was at the half of the way l, the wind was great so we could sail. Meanwhile he gave us a little antipasti. It was totally lovely, I loved the Tomatoesalad.
