COMBINED SAIL AND 4X4 :

Dive into the heart of adventure with our exclusive "Evasion Agriate" excursion! Embark on an exceptional day with a small group, starting with a thrilling adventure aboard our Gibsea Amaranthe 353, an 11-meter sailboat custom-designed for our unique Cruising School experience. Imagine yourself in a spacious cockpit, designed for optimum comfort during maneuvers, conviviality and maximum safety, even in the company of a large crew.
This magnificent yacht is the fruit of a collaboration between the Gibert Marine shipyard in La Rochelle and the talented Marc Linsky of Calvi, a French ocean racing champion of the 70s and 80s. Together, they created a comfortable boat, built in the 1990s, which has since trained several generations of yachtsmen thanks to its innovative educational concept.
Let the gentle sea breeze carry you away as you sail along the picturesque coastline and wild beaches of Agriate. Regular stops allow you to dive into heavenly coves, where the crystal-clear waters invite you to relax.
The magic continues with an exciting 4x4 journey through the wild Agriate scrubland. A true immersion in the heart of nature, offering moments of contemplation and wonder. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to discuss the preservation of marine and terrestrial biodiversity, creating unforgettable memories while helping to protect our planet.

The shores of our odyssey reveal their mysteries in our wake.
To starboard, wild beaches of dazzling white sand, including Losari and Ostriconi, emerge like lost treasures. Enchanting interludes await us in the crystal-clear waters of Acciolu, Anse de Malfacu and the graceful beach of Guignu. Between the waves, fascinating discussions on the preservation of marine biodiversity mingle with the natural orchestration of the sea itself.
Our flavor-filled picnic and embrace with the waves at Ghignu beach will turn into a symphony of grace in the heart of unspoiled nature. Here, sea and land unite to offer pure enchantment, an experience where every moment becomes an ode to the beauty of our marine environment. Embark with us on an adventure where the wind whispers timeless tales and nature reveals its most precious treasures.

On land
Embark on a poetic journey back overland in an all-terrain vehicle, revealing the secret charms of wild Agriate. Follow a winding thirteen-kilometer trail through the splendors of this authentic region, spread over 15,000 hectares and the largest natural sanctuary on the Mediterranean coast.
Between ancestral rocks and mystical maquis, this infinite land reveals its majestic ridges, secret valleys and rocky summits draped in a symphony of rockroses, immortelles, lentisks, arbutus trees, wild olive trees and endemic heathers. A living canvas of colors and fragrances unfolds, while the vestiges of the rural past whisper tales of an intense agro-pastoral life.
On this hike, a deep bond is forged with the wilderness through a shared commitment to preserving its natural and cultural riches. Each step becomes an emotion, an authentic reconnection with the wild world, a dance between the earth and our souls. Ancient Terriccie sheepfolds and troglodyte shelters tell an ancient story, while low drystone walls invite you to touch history with your fingertips.
This adventure also offers the fascinating alternative of a 4x4 departure and an enchanting sailboat return. The tour can be enjoyed in either direction, leaving you to choose between a majestic sailing start followed by an off-road return, or an initial 4x4 ride followed by a spellbinding sail.
