HIGHLIGHTS View
Set sail to discover some of the most fascinating islands in the Mediterranean! The Pontine Islands stretch from the Faraglione La Guardia, to the south, to Punta dell'Incenso, to the northeast, and have a narrow and elongated shape resembling the letter "i" of the alphabet, with the dot represented by the Island of Gavi. The archipelago offers the perfect setting for a sailing cruise, with crystal-clear waters, marine caves, ancient villages, and untouched bays. Ponza is the largest and liveliest island, immediately striking you with its hidden corners, like the Pilato Marine Caves or the beautiful Chiaia di Luna, a beach surrounded by white tuff cliffs, resembling a paradise corner. The harbor, with its colorful houses, is the island’s beating heart, a perfect place to stroll through shops and typical restaurants, savoring fresh seafood dishes. In Ventotene, time seems to have stopped during the Roman era: the Roman Port and Villa Giulia tell the story of a fascinating past, while the surrounding sea is perfect for snorkeling or simply relaxing on its small beaches. Sailing a little further, you’ll discover Santo Stefano Island, with its imposing Bourbon Prison standing solitary in the sea. Although the island is uninhabited, the atmosphere is magnetic and enveloping, almost surreal. Here, the only sound you’ll hear is the waves crashing against the cliffs. Don’t forget about Palmarola with its transparent waters, hidden caves, and tuff-carved pinnacles, making this island one of the most beautiful and unspoiled in the Mediterranean. Cala Brigantina, with its crystal-clear waters, is the ideal place to take a swim away from the crowds, surrounded by pristine nature.
