Fancy a cabin charter sailing cruise with friends before winter days?

It is not mountain period yet, but it's the right period for squid, especially in Capraia, in Tuscany. You've never caught a squid? This is the right time. Furthermore, we'll eat the squid caught in the evening rightaway. Surely we cannot guarantee good weather, but just the fun.

The experience is worth it and at this time of the year the wind will not be missing so a good waxed jacket should be in your luggage, but if we are lucky we will find days with a fabulous weather.
