Paris is a 2023 Dufour Catamaran 48 based at Capo d'Orlando Marina in Sicily, offering an ideal platform for exploring the crystalline waters and hidden anchorages of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Her generous 14.7-metre hull and 8-metre beam create abundant space across five cabins and five ensuite bathrooms, making her equally suited to multi-generational family voyages, groups of friends seeking adventure, or couples desiring privacy with the option of hosting companions. The catamaran's dual 60 hp Penta engines deliver reliable performance, while the pilothouse automation and onboard desalination system ensure effortless cruising and independence during extended time at anchor.

Life aboard Paris balances comfort with exploration. The expansive cockpit, sheltered beneath a generous bimini and lined with plush cushions, becomes your floating living room—the natural gathering point for morning coffee or evening aperitivos as the Sicilian coastline unfolds around you. Below deck, air conditioning maintains a serene retreat during warmer days, while the full galley refrigeration keeps provisions fresh throughout your week. The onboard generator provides reliable power for all conveniences, allowing you to focus entirely on the rhythm of the sea rather than logistics.

Your typical week unfolds between the dramatic headlands and protected coves that characterise this corner of Sicily. Mornings might find you anchored off Aeolian islands, snorkelling in gin-clear waters with the provided masks and fins before a leisurely lunch prepared in the well-equipped galley. The tender and swimming platform extend your reach to secluded spots inaccessible to larger vessels, while the autopilot grants you breathing room during longer passages between anchorages. Evenings settle into a gentle routine of local seafood, sunset views framed by volcanic peaks, and the gentle rock of the catamaran beneath a star-filled sky.

Seven nights aboard Paris offers the perfect rhythm to disconnect from routine and reconnect with the unhurried pace of Mediterranean sailing—anchored in crystalline bays, the Sicilian hills glowing amber in the fading light.
