Also available for a week in June or September, but also for a weekend or two, or a few days when you want to get away from it all. Come and fully enjoy the pleasures of sailing, the sea, the magnificent landscapes of southern Corsica and all the Sardinian islands, the many wild coves, swimming in the warm blue waters, the warmth of the sun... all in complete relaxation, simplicity, and safety on Fleur de Sel with one of Pierres, the boat's skippers. For a week (from Sunday 10 a.m. to Saturday 9 a.m.), the ideal length of time to take the time to peacefully discover this magnificent sailing area, you will be the queens and kings aboard Fleur de Sel.

Overall rating
Pierre is a magnificent skipper and Fleur de Sel is a great boat. We spent a week aboard exploring southern Corsica and northern Sardinia. Pierre knows the area very well and took us to fantastic beaches and locations. Don't forget to ask about the gelato on Sardinia. We were a party of five and there was more than enough room for all of us. Some members wanted to relax and enjoy the cruise while others wanted to sail. Pierre was able to meet all our expectations and is an excellent teacher. We will gladly sail with him again and recommend him and Fleur de Sel without exception. Thank you Pierre for an extraordinary week.
Pierre is the best ! Always finding the right spot with nobody ! He knows Corsica 👌🏻 He ‘s nice and funny and always in good mood . I had experienced other skipper before , always boring and not connected with the group . Pierre is totally different . He loves his job ! And want you to feel what he feels when he travels the ocean of the world ! Perfect 👌🏻😘
Pierre hosted our family on his wonderful boat for a few days. He is friendly, generous and we'd recommend both his boat and Pierre as a captain. We'd return again but would opt for a longer trip to see even more of Corsica.
Best holiday ever! Our family loved to be onboard of Fleur de Sel last summer. Pierre and Romane were absolutely great hosts and we recommend renting their boat to anyone who wants to enjoy a special sense of freedom from being on water day and night enjoying sunsets and dawns, clear waters and getting back on land now and then. Pierre is a very experienced and professional skipper, we always felt safe under his wing and he always tried to get nice spots for us to enjoy at our best also by giving tips. We were able to visit beautiful villages in Sardinia and Corse while enjoy the privacy of our own boat to return to. I could not spend enough nice words for an extensive positive review. Top of the cake was the company of his daughter Romane who became a big sister to our two boys while engaging with them in games on the boat and on the beach or simply watching a movie together. We loved meeting this terrific duo father-daughter and wish them a great 2017 season on board of Fleur de Sel. Our potcake dog also thanks for being allowed onboard.
From the beginning of the day to the end, Pierre was there, attentive to our needs, extremely helpful, showing us some very beautiful places and giving us time to discover them. Thank you Pierre
A wonderful day where we were delighted. Pierre and his partner are adorable and very welcoming.
Thank you so much for those unforgettable days. We loved spending three days with Pierre. Highly recommended.
Great week with Pierre on Fleur de Sel! We wanted to navigate ourselves as much as possible, to learn, and Pierre adapted his program to our wishes, guiding and advising us. He knows the south east coast of Corsica and La Maddalena very well, knowing how to choose the most intimate and best protected anchorages. The boat is in excellent condition and very comfortable, and Pierre has even proven to be a brilliant GO with the children!
Attention, the reality is not exactly that of the announcement of Click&Boat. The boat only offers 3 cabins available to customers, i.e. 6 people. The 4th cabin being occupied by the skipper. The site indicates that for a week of rental, boarding is on Saturday from 3.30 p.m. and disembarkation the following Saturday at 2.30 p.m. In fact the owner wants boarding on Sunday at 5 p.m. and disembarking the following Saturday at 9 a.m. Knowing that the first and the last anchorage are in the golf of Porto Vecchio. The boat is over 15 years old, so it has the comfort of a boat of this age and the risk of damage is therefore greater. We therefore did not escape the failure of one of the 2 engines in the middle of the stay. In July, the skipper confided in us that it was the mainsail that had been torn on Sunday. On older boats, spare parts are hard to find and lead times can be longer. The owner therefore strongly insisted on continuing the trip with a single engine, despite the difficulties that this entails (difficulties in manoeuvring, anchorages further from the beaches, or even impossible, longer connection times between anchorages, and finally a return in Porto-Vecchio on Friday at 4 p.m. to bring in the repairer). So we spent a week on fleur de sel. Out of 7 people there were 3 boat owners and 2 sailing instructors. We were all of the same opinion. The owner seems more focused on profitability than on: - The maintenance of the boat (a broken galley porthole, the one in the starboard aft cabin which is taking on large drops of water, the broken down engine which is bathing in 10 cm of oil in the hold, the bathing ladder missing starboard), - Passenger safety (navigation with a single engine and without a "delta" flag indicating maneuvering difficulties, no searchlight powerful enough for night search and location), - Hygiene (fridge turned off at night, pillows with earaches and stung by humidity) - Customer satisfaction (no commercial gesture offered despite the engine failure which still had a significant impact on our stay). The owner just made us a crazy proposal: to interrupt the stay and land on a deserted beach, surrounded by maquis, 10 km from the first village in the middle of August and with a disabled child on board. Despite several emails to Click&Boat, these were not of much help.
Great cruise. Great skipper!
We had a great week on Fleur de Sel with Pierre, who was very welcoming and full of attention with our young children :) Pierre knows the anchorages well, each one more beautiful than the other, the boat is safe , etc. I recommend without hesitation!
Magnificent cruise aboard Pierre's catamaran, everything is as described. We did not sleep on the boat as we chose to do a day cruise. Very pleasant navigation, anchorage at the superb cove of Roccapina, paddle,... Thank you again for this day and welcome back to the continent :).
Great stay... Thank you Pierre.

Top super boat! and a very professional skipper
