AMALFI COAST, ITALY
SAMPLE 7-DAY SAILING ITINERARY

NAPLES

Day 1

Saturday

Arrival & check-in, Naples

Start your Mediterranean getaway in the birthplace of great pizza, Naples! This southern coastal spot is brimming with traditional harbour town vibes that will get you into step with the relaxed Italian way of life. A short walk from the harbour you will be immersed in grand art and architecture including the impressive Duomo di San Gennaro and 13th Century Castel Nuovo. You will be spoilt for choice when it comes options for your first dinner of the trip! We recommend making the most of the historic Neopolitan food traditions and experiencing a proper brick oven pizza in the very town that first created it.

Ischia

Day 2

Sunday

Procida & Ischia

Depart Naples and sail west towards the ‘the Island of Eternal Youth’, Ischia. To make the most of your first day sailing, you can break up the trip by stopping off at the tiny yet stunning island of Procida. This 4km square oasis is filled with colourful pastel houses and intertwined with lemon groves. Procida is a great spot to relax with some lunch and watch the local fisherman come and go.

Once you’re ready to say goodbye to Procida, you’ll continue your journey just a short while to reach the largest island in the area, Ischia. This volcanic island is known for it’s mineral rich hot springs and natural thermal mud baths. There are plenty of sea view restaurants and bars to unwind in before heading back to your boat in the historic harbour.

CAPRI

Day 3

Monday

Capri

Sailing away from Ischia and directly across the Bay of Naples, you will encounter the famous rocky coastline of Capri. This island is famous for a variety of things on land including lavish hotels and great Limoncello liqueur, however the most beautiful attraction can actually be found below sea level! The Blue Grotto is an underwater cave that glows a brilliant azure colour when lit up by the sun shining through the clear ocean. Exploring the Blue Grotto is a once in a lifetime experience that will undoubtedly be the centre of dinner conversation that evening in one of the many harbour side restaurants.

AMALFI

Day 4

Tuesday

Amalfi

On day four you will return to mainland Italy from the islands and discover the naturally unique and wonderful town of Amalfi. You will undoubtedly recognise the mountainous surroundings of Amalfi as images of the location are widely spread and have become synonymous with Mediterranean beauty. Amalfi is buzzing with busy piazzas and beaches that will be sure to re-invigorate you from the sleepy island life.

Sorrento

Just a short float around the Sorrentine Peninsula and past the stunning coastal gems of Torca, Nerano, Termini, you will arrive in the clifftop town of Sorrento. Due to it’s high vantage point, you will be able to marvel at sweeping water views as you familiarise yourself with the maze of historic cobblestoned streets that make up this antique destination.
