HOW TO GET TO ITALY
Italy, here we go...
We are looking forward to hosting you for an unforgettable week with us!
And to ensure smooth embarkation, we have provided you with easy access to marina instructions and other details that you will need to get to your starting point.
The marina
If your itinerary is Sicily, take a taxi or bus from Catania Airport to Milazzo. Taxi is quicker, bus is more economical. From Milazzo, take a taxi or local transport to Marina Portorosa. Another option is to take the train from Catania Centrale to
Novara-Montalbano-Furnari then there is either a walk or taxi to the marina.
The marina
If your itinerary is Sardinia & Corsica. Fly into Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport, the marina is just 10-15 minutes away. Please make sure you arrive at Marina Olbia with plenty of time, all taxi drivers know where it is.
Your crew
If you require marina instructions when you're in Sicily or Sardinia, you can send a message to the official WhatsApp group chat that will be created the night before your embarkation. The staff are all fluent in English and very friendly. Embarkation days can be quite busy, so it’s also wise to arrive a little early and relax.
Transfers
You can book a private airport transfer to take you to the marina ahead, you can take a cab. It would take 1.5 hours from the airport to the marina Portorosa and 10-15 minutes to marina di Olbia.
Our boat
Your crew will inform you of the specifics on the group chat. Once, you have the details,
Look for our 'Med Sailing Holidays" flags. The flags depend on the type of trip you have booked.
Shopping
If you arrive at the marina early, you can go and grab some last-minute necessities, drinks, and snacks in the nearby supermarket. Just a reminder that we have a BYO [bring-your-own] alcohol policy. If you need ice, you can grab one in the supermarket and just replenish every time we dock.
On the day!
Boarding time is at 5 PM. The boat's location will depend on where the boats will be parked for the season.
PLEASE BE PATIENT, your crew are doing everything they can to get you settled asap
