This morning I made two laps: the first with a young couple from Germany, the second - a bit shorter - with two younger characters that wanted to learn too quickly...
Here few pics of this nice day.

Well, it's not like summer but it's a great weather.

Full Moon Night Paddling
Having temperatures going even above 37°C during the day, a night paddling becomes almost mandatory!
With a bunch of friends we went out to look for a fresh full Moon night exploration of the rocks in front of the harbour of Acitrezza.
The current was going northward - almost 2 knots ! - and there was a nice swell going southward, giving us some fun behind Lachea island in shorth and steep waves in the darkness!
My wife was finally back in her kayak after a very long time and my doughter was playing with me in a double, screaming in the dark "my father is crazy!".
We all and someone more had a final "pizza&beer" in a lovely terrace above the sea. It was really great!

Paddling the sea of mythology.
Anyone knows Homer's Odyssey? Well, this is the place where a good part of the story took place... Such a wild, wildlife rich and beautiful place was perfect to imagine a so intricate novel.
The bloody mulberries were good and red like the anemone (here called sea tomatoes) and the final granita was welcome good: almond as a base, with coffee for me and with figs for Natalie. Fresh bread as a bonus.
Today an australian beauty has come to discover the provenance sites (Sicily) of her family and she found that a kayak was a good vector.
A volcanic land is always offering high contrasts, strong flavors, deep colors. In a very calm day, as a guide I can dedicate myself in underlining all of this features and I just hope I've been successful in this mission.

Favignana talking and paddling
On the 28th of May I had the opportunity to talk - as spokesperson of the italian sea kayak association - on a meeting organized from Legambiente on the outdoor activities on preotected areas. It was a very interesting meeting as well as the excursions following the event... Favignana is a beautiful location to paddle around!
