Spray is a sailing charter company, but first and foremost, it is a sailing school.

All sailors know that learning to navigate does not merely imply perfecting one’s sailing techniques.  The wisdom and awareness necessary to interact with nature’s elements, as well as with the boat and the crew members, are only acquired through years of hand-on experience and cannot be learned from books. Besides giving you the basics of sailing instruction, we wish to  share with you our knowledge of the sea and of its great cultural value, and teach you the importance of loving and respecting it.

Our headquarters are in La Spezia (eastern Liguria) and in Marsala (western Sicily), but we will sail any area of the Mediterranean upon request.  We can assist you in choosing your boat and  navigation route wherever you wish to go, tailoring your trip upon your own requirements to plan a cruise which is just right for you.

We offer sailboats for bare-boat and/or crewed vacations, and specialize in “special highlight” assisted cruises (with a skipper-guide/hostess team on board) focusing on sailing instruction, cultural/historical highlights, cooking classes and gastronomy, marine biology and coastal ecology.

If you are interested in coming to Italy to sail the beautiful Mediterranean sea, please contact us by E-mail or phone, with details re. your wishes and needs (charter period, number of crew members, preferred boat size, type of cruise…)  We will advice you on boats, areas of navigation, route possibilities, prevailing weather patterns in the area and period you have chosen, and help you with maps, materials and other useful information.
