Experience Overview
Set sail across some of the most transparent, bluest water on earth on this relaxing nautical adventure to the coasts of Italy and France.
Set sail across some of the most transparent, bluest water on earth on this relaxing nautical adventure to the coasts of Italy and France. Island-hop from Portisco to Bonifacio, stopping to snorkel among the coves of Caprera, swim in the archipelago, or find a quiet spot on a white sandy beach in Isola Santo Stefano. Climb the King Aragon Steps in Corsica, bush walk through wild national parks and cruise Maddalena Island on two wheels. The beauty of a sailing adventure is that each day you wake up in a new spot, with the freedom to do as much or as little as you please. At night, watch the sunset from the nearest beach or from the deck of your yacht and fall asleep to the undulating waves beneath.
Highlights
- Swim in the crystal-clear waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea and go snorkelling with the colourful fish and marine wildlife at each destination.
- Explore the ancient citadel of fortified Bonifacio in Corsica, as well as the many medieval houses, trendy bars, historic buildings and the bustling Old Town.
- Spot wildlife in beautiful Caprera, like the wild goats that roam freely. Look out for the varied birdlife on the island, too – declared a natural reserve for the seabirds that live here.
- If you choose, cycle around the lively city of Maddalena – a town in the archipelago of the same name that boasts many cafes, bars, restaurants and shops that are perfect for exploring on foot or by bike.
- Watch the sunset each night from a local, white sand beach or rise early each morning to watch the sunrise on the deck of your group’s yacht.

the quality of leader makes sailing a pleasure with Intrepid and this trip has lived up to expectations. Reece has that rare combination of qualities - skill as a captain and the ability to work well and thoughtfully with his “crew”. life on a boat is...

Great week sailing with a fantastic group of solo travellers! Nuncio looked after us all really well and involved us in decisions. A pretty relaxed pace but with opportunity to explore and sight see as well. Would definitely recommend!

This thril was fantastic, I would highly recommend it. Our skipper Noon was brilliant and made the trip so great. We had a great mix of people on our tour and it was a lot of fun. Noon cooked food for us and that was some of the best Italian food I have ever had. When we were at the harbours he took us to some fantastic restaurants and great little bars. The beaches and swimming spots each day were amazing, there was a lot of swimming and waking up anchored in quiet bays surrounded by islands was so nice. We went to Bonifacio and it was so beautiful there. We had some rough weather during our trip, but Noon chose spot to anchor or habours to stay at that were safe and out of the bad weather. My only slightly negative comments would be about the actual boat. One of the fridges didn’t work for the duration of the trip and the cabin area of the boat wasn’t overly clean when we boarded and wasn’t stocked with linen. Thankfully the next day we had linen supplies to us.

Intrepid made the sailing trip and meeting with other crew members very straightforward - the skipper was excellent - we shall be using intrepid again in near future

Amazing trip! Reality was way above my expectations. A lot more sailing then I was expecting, Bruno (great skipper and great person) would give us the chance to participate and sail whenever was possible, and we had plenty of opportunities to swim in the beautiful blue sea. Follow the packing instructions! The rooms are minimal; ideally is something like a rucksack, definitely avoid anything bigger then a cabin type luggage.
