Sample Italy Charter Itinerary - Naples to Naples

Day 1: Board your Italy charter yacht in Naples to steam to Capri, which overlooks the stunning Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. Capri has always been one of the favorite resting places for the privileged and was once home to the Roman Emperor Tiberius.

Days 2 - 3: The extraordinary beauty of Capri includes the Blue Grotto, a charming landscape, and the views of Anacapri. Capri has two levels.  There is a walking and shopping area right around the marina while the main town, on top of Capri, is accessible by funicular. Visit the upscale tiny shops and stop for refreshments at an outdoor café in one of the little piazzas as you watch Capri life go by.


Day 4: Depart early for Amalfi, one of Italy's most romantic villages, which clings to the dramatic slopes of the ruggedly beautiful Amalfi Coast. Take a taxi to Ravello village, with its spectacular views of the coast and magnificent villas. After, motor to Positano, which is built around a small curving bay on a steep hill overlooking the island of the Sirens.  Stroll narrow lanes to view typical Moorish style houses and courtyard gardens that are lined up along the slopes facing the sea. Leave for Salerno.

Day 5: At Salerno, dock the charter yacht at Salerno Marina, and leave for Pompeii. A taxi will collect you at the marina to spend the day visiting the historic ruins.  Overnight in Salerno.
 
Day 6: After breakfast explore the Sorrento Peninsula, where you will overnight, weather permitting. Otherwise, overnight in Capri. Next day, sail to Ischia.

Day 7: Ischia is a volcanic spa island with many sulfur springs and medicinal bathing areas.  There is a natural spring on the beach near where you will anchor that you might want to visit and then have lunch on board.  After lunch, there are many taxis or surreys in Ischia that offer an around the island tour.

The island is very large with different towns and sights to see.  Return in the afternoon and depart for Naples, concluding your Italy yacht charter.

"We had never heard of the Pontine Islands before you suggested them. Italy has so much to offer and so many islands to see, and of course, who can miss Capri. This charter was once again, way beyond expectations."
