NB: The dual time indications refer to the schedules of the two ships, which are slightly staggered. Reservations will be directed based on availability; the times are always approximate and subject to minor changes due to port traffic, currents, winds, and weather conditions in general.

NB: In case of adverse sea conditions, the trip may be modified or suspended at the Captain's discretion, particularly regarding the docking at Giannutri.

Why choose our ships: Not only the islands, but the entire coast and archipelago deserve our interest and admiration: for this reason, we are accompanied by Guides, Biologists, Historians, and Geologists who will provide numerous insights into the landscape and the Cetaceans that often delight our crossings. We value the entire territory, pampering our passengers because we know how curious they are about what we visit!
