Built in 1921, Florette is the last active, originally built brigantine in the Mediterranean and one of the last wooden windjammers that are still actively sailing. Join Florette for an Italian sailing holiday to explore the UNESCO heritage site of the Aeolian islands. From the active volcano of Stromboli to the typical Italian island of Lipari, experience the very best of this archipelago from the water. An unforgettable and versatile sailing holiday in Italy with daily trips ashore, offering a pleasant contrast to the social life on board. Experience the fiery Stromboli, the most active volcano in Europe on an adventurous night-time hike. Climb Vulcano slumbering in sulphur fumes and enjoy a healing bath in the sulphur mud afterwards before dipping into the bubbling sea. Or go hiking on the Salina island, known for its capers and sweet wine. Swim, snorkel and kayak in secluded bays with crystal-clear water and dark beaches made of fine, black lava sand. Florette and her crew always try to combine traditional classic sailing while immersing guests in the natural landscapes ashore; volcanoes, ancient culture and the specialities of the regional Italian cuisine. Whilst on board this historic brigantine guests can get involved with traditional sailing. With an original rig, it is certainly an all-hands on deck approach – which is surely part of the magic to this adventure sailing holiday! https://venturesailholidays.com/ship/florette/

Hotel in Costa Adeje , in the South of Tenerife , where you can enjoy everything that the Canary Islands has to offer, such as an average temperature of 23ºC all year round, which is fantastic for a refreshing swim in a seawater pool overlooking the sea, or a relaxing swim in a heated pool.

Life to leeward can be wet and wild for the Jib Trimmer. Eyes ahead and up is the only way to roll to keep the sail shape right. The waves were short and sharp on the way out of Strangford Lough as the J109 GTR bounces over the bar on it way to victory in the 2024 Ardglass Race. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you are enjoying the short bits from the 2024 racing season.
