Travel activities
ELBA: TREKKING, BEAUTIFUL BEACHES AND MORE
Elba has historical hamlets, nature reserves, footpaths, bike trails, and archaeological museums. You can also relax with spa treatments and excellent cuisine. Our recommendation? Start your day with a swim and snorkeling in Sant’Andrea or Capo Bianco, then hike the GTE (Grand Tour of Elba path) to admire the amazing views.
CORSICA AND BONIFACIO MEDIEVAL TOWN
Up a white limestone cliff, in the southern coast of Corsica, is the medieval town of Bonifacio. Known also as the “Citadel of Cliffs,” this secluded town features an ancient citadel, beautiful cobblestone alleyways, colorful houses, and a shoreline of sparkling waters. Just like the locals you can go to the multi-layered cliffs to sunbathe in caves or skinny dip in hidden coves.
Travel organizer tips
Do I need experience to be on a sailing cruise?
Looking to book a cruise but don't have any sailing experience? Hire a professional crew member to take care of sailing maneuvers, moorings and anchoring. Sit back and enjoy the cruise while the captain sets the best itinerary for you.
And if I suffer from seasickness?
Be careful at the start of your holiday: do not spend time inside while the boat moves, go out to look at the panorama, so your body gets used to movement! If this does not work, minimize the effects with: ginger, sea bands or medication (from a doctor!).
How do I get on board from the airport?
We can organize a shared taxi transfer for guests arriving at similar times for shared cruises. For private cruises, request transfer in advance to avoid high rates. Intersailclub can also put you in contact with the trip organizer for more travel tips.
