Full description

See that lighthouse over there, surrounded by crystal-clear water and shallow waters?

That's it, that's the destination of our sailing day: in the company of a federal sailing instructor you will venture from Marina di Pisa to the Secche della Meloria, a splendid natural setting where you can anchor for a swim.

Lunch will also be served on board to toast with the crew to your'sailing baptism'!

What we will do

The appointment is at 10:00 a.m. at the meeting point in Marina di Pisa (PI). We will be greeted by thefederal sailing instructor, who will welcome us on board his boat.

After all participants have been boarded, anintroduction of about 15 minutes will take place around 10:30 a.m. during which we will be introduced to the basics of sailing. And after our'sailing baptism', we will be ready to set sail!

Just like a real crew, we will hoist the sails together and start sailing westwards towards theSecche della Meloria Protected Area , which we will reach in about 1 hour. When we spot crystal-clear water and shallow waters, we will know we have reached our destination: we will stop in this splendid natural setting for a swim in the shade of the scenic lighthouse. In the meantime, lunch (included) will be served on board, including a cold starter, focaccia, cold meats and fresh fruit, subject to availability.

Along the way, it will be possible to enjoy the navigation or actively participate in life on board: in addition to learning gaits and manoeuvres thanks to the instructor's teachings, we will also be able to try helming the boat!

We will finally return to the meeting point at 18:30. The experience will last a total of 8½ hours.

The experience is suitable for ages 6 and up; children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult or have signed authorisation.
