Services: Antilia Sailing´s purpose is to help you develop your sailing skills through hands-on training and personalised guidance from a charter skipper - whether you are a beginner eager to learn or an experienced sailor looking to gain more sea time. 

Background: Sailing is my greatest passion, whether it involves club racing, peaceful cruising, or the focus of singlehanded adventures. Having logged miles across Italy, Portugal, and the Gulf of Finland, I bring practical experience and a deep respect for the sea to every trip. As a certified ICC and Charter Skipper, my priority is providing a safe, reliable, and enjoyable day on the water. I would be glad to share this love for sailing with you and help create your ideal journey.
