May 4 – July 11, 2026
Sardinia – Italy – Aeolian Islands – Malta
Island Season.
As summer unfolds, Florette slows her pace among volcanic islands, turquoise bays, and ancient coastlines. From Sardinia’s east coast to the Aeolian Islands and back toward Malta, this is the season of exploration and simple life at sea.
Florette sails east from Sardinia’s Gulf of Orosei toward the Aeolian Islands, a chain of volcanic peaks rising out of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The route moves through Vibo Marina and into the UNESCO archipelago, where life follows the rhythm of sea, wind, and fire.

Route
Days take their shape between sailing, hiking, and anchoring beneath volcanoes. The air is heavy with salt and ash, the sea alive with colour and light.
You’ll move with the ship, learn by doing, and find your pace somewhere between calm mornings and long nights under stars.
From Stromboli’s red glow to Salina’s green slopes and Vulcano’s black sand, every island offers its own character. The wind decides where the day begins and ends. As the season closes, Florette turns south again through Calabria and Sicily before reaching Malta, where the water warms and the journey folds back to where it started.
