After a two-year forced break, the magic of the not-to-be missed event for classic and vintage yachts returns to Porto Santo Stefano. The final preparations are underway to celebrate the 21st edition of Argentario Sailing Week organized by the Yacht Club Santo Stefano and by the Municipality of Monte Argentario that will begin on Wednesday 15 June and wrap up on Sunday 19 June 2022.
