The trip

A colourful harbour town at the edge of the Zingaro nature reserve, with hidden coves reachable only by sea.
A Caribbean-like bay of white sand below Monte Monaco, famous for its couscous and its turquoise water.
Days are spent sailing, swimming in quiet bays and discovering harbour towns; evenings at anchor or in port. The route is a guide: the skipper adapts it to the weather and sea conditions.
