Pantelleria, Egadi & South West Sicily Sailing Expedition - Gozo to Gozo

10-day sailing expedition across the Sicily Channel and South West Sicily.

Starting and ending in Gozo, this offshore loop connects Pantelleria, the Egadi Islands (Favignana, Levanzo, Marettimo), and the south west coast of Sicily, with stops that may include Mazara del Vallo, Sciacca, Licata, and a possible swim stop near Scala dei Turchi when conditions allow.

This is not a classic charter holiday. It is a multi-day sailing expedition built around real navigation, shared life on board, and exploration at sea. Plans are shaped by weather and sea state, not by a fixed tour schedule.

The route combines longer offshore crossings with coastal navigation and time ashore when conditions allow. Days may include swimming stops in sheltered bays, simple onboard fishing moments, and evenings in port to discover local food culture and small island towns.

Offshore passages take place in waters known for rich marine ecosystems. Encounters with dolphins or sea turtles are possible, but never guaranteed and depend entirely on natural conditions.

Life on board follows the rhythm of the sea. Days are shaped by route choices discussed during daily briefings with the skipper and crew. Guests are welcome to take part in onboard routines and navigation activities according to their skills and interests, within a safe and supportive environment.
