The spirit of travel
Embark on a comfortable catamaran, sized appropriately for your group, for a cruise between Ajaccio and Bonifacio along the wild coves of the ancient island of Cyrnos. You navigate from cove to cove, amid rocks sculpted by time, following an itinerary established at the beginning of the week by your team based on weather conditions.
You are accompanied by a professional skipper, sailing and diving instructor, also an underwater biology educator, and Isa, a vinyasa yoga teacher. Very sensitive to environmental protection, the crew implements several eco-responsible measures on board: selective waste sorting and elimination of plastic bottles in favor of water stored in large stainless steel containers.
Meals, mainly vegetarian and based on local products, are taken together on the boat in a simple and friendly atmosphere. Vinyasa yoga, a dynamic practice synchronized with breathing, sets the rhythm of your days: an energizing session at sunrise, a meditative session at sunset, and individual coaching offered in the afternoon.

Keeper of the Corsican soul, based in Cap Corse
For me, loving a region is first and foremost loving its people. In Corsica, the villages, the voices, the gestures and the paths tell as much as the landscapes.
