The English Flotilla Guidance
Of course, a successful sailing holiday depends on the weather, the sun, the sea and the flotilla guidance. In addition to conviviality, safety is of course very important during the sailing holiday. During the Sardinian flotilla, professional English-speaking guidance is available on the mothership who are always ready for mooring and anchoring. These flotilla leaders may also be local residents, but will always have good English language skills. In addition, they plot the route (with input from the participants) and monitor the weather for everyone. Of course, they enjoy it a lot themselves and are always looking forward to giving you a great experience in Italy as well.

Arrival at Cannigione
Start your flotilla with a warm welcome and refreshing drink at base in bustling Cannigione, nestled in the northeast corner of Sardinia. Spend your first day getting to know your yacht and your new flotilla companions at the base before having the chance to explore the prosperous town, originally founded as a fishing village in the 1800s. Tonight you will sleep aboard your vessel and start your morning with a detailed yacht briefing.
Day 2
Cannigione - Lavezzi
Embark on your sail on the glittering Tyrrhenian Sea and head northwest towards the Lavezzi archipelago off the coast. Along the way, travel past the low-lying, lush island of Spargi, a rugged gem bursting with satiating natural beauty. Travel on to anchor overnight on Lavezzi Island, one of Corsica's many nature reserves. Located just southeast of Bonifacio, this uninhabited archipelago is a tranquil setting for picturesque days and starlit evenings alongside large granite boulders and pristine sandy beaches.
