Strait & Stone · Bonifacio
A Corsican occasion with room for the sea to decide
Make the gathering the fixed part of your Bonifacio day. The cliff view, island route and swimming stop can then be discussed around the people, the meal and the conditions you find at sea.

Protect the celebration rather than a map pin
Decide what should survive a route change. It might be a birthday meal with everyone seated together or a private anniversary cruise. Give the operator that priority, then use the island and cliff routes as possibilities to assess rather than conditions for a successful celebration.
Lavezzi is an idea to discuss, not a location to promise on an invitation before the captain has assessed the plan. The Bonifacio cliffs can provide another focus, but any stop still depends on the yacht, the conditions and applicable rules. Avoid making the success of a family occasion depend on several distant stops.
Choose the actual setting aboard
Look at the space where guests will spend most of the celebration. Ask for the table arrangement, shade, seating during the passage and access to a toilet. A long yacht with attractive cabins may still have a dining layout that divides your party between separate areas.
Explain the mix of ages and any boarding concerns. Confirm the licensed guest allowance for the vessel proposed and check whether additional suppliers would affect the allowed numbers. Overnight berths are a different measurement and should not be used to size a day celebration.
Bring the details through the harbour
Bonifacio harbour is part of the occasion’s logistics, not just its backdrop. Confirm the exact berth and delivery arrangements before ordering a cake, flowers or catering. Suppliers need an agreed handover; guests need practical directions to the yacht rather than a general meeting point in town.
Discuss photography, music and decorations with the operator. Ask what is acceptable aboard, how it will be secured and removed, and whether any extra staff must be arranged. A private enquiry can include these requests without implying that every yacht carries party equipment or offers an events crew.
Agree the alternative before the day
Ask how the proposed celebration would work on a shorter route or without the hoped-for swim. Keep the operator’s weather and cancellation terms separate from any catering or supplier commitments, so you understand which charges follow a change. Do not leave that discussion until guests have arrived.
Your request should include the occasion, date, guest count and preferred duration, followed by the meal and any special moment you want to arrange. Add a firm return time if other plans depend on it. The resulting proposal should name the vessel and arrangements that can actually be offered.
