Medea is a 2021 Dufour 530 sailing yacht based at Marina di Scarlino, your gateway to the Tuscan Archipelago. This 16-metre vessel offers the perfect balance of performance and comfort for groups seeking an authentic week of Mediterranean sailing. With six cabins accommodating up to twelve guests across fifteen berths, Medea suits multi-generational families, circles of friends, or corporate groups looking to explore one of Italy's most compelling coastal regions without compromise on space or privacy.

The Tuscan coast rewards unhurried exploration. Your week typically unfolds between Scarlino and the protected waters surrounding Elba, Giglio, and Giannutri—islands where granite cliffs frame hidden anchorages and small fishing villages still feel untouched by mass tourism. Medea's 75 HP engine and bow thruster make entry into tight harbours straightforward, while the autopilot handles longer passages so you can focus on the view. The solar panels and water maker aboard mean extended time at remote anchorages without concern for resource constraints, a quiet luxury that deepens the sense of freedom.

Life aboard centres on the cockpit, where a bimini provides shelter during afternoon heat, and the swimming platform becomes your private gateway to crystalline waters. Three well-appointed heads ensure morning routines remain civilised, while the galley's refrigeration keeps provisions fresh for simple suppers prepared underway or elaborate meals anchored in a sheltered bay. The lazy bag system keeps sail handling manageable, and the GPS chartplotter removes guesswork from navigation. An included dinghy opens access to beaches and restaurants unreachable by larger vessels, extending your reach into the archipelago's quieter corners.

Picture yourself at sunset, anchored off Giglio Porto with a glass of Vermentino in hand, the boat gently swinging to the breeze as the granite peaks turn amber and violet—this is the rhythm of a week aboard Medea, where sailing and stillness intertwine.
