Boasting one of Italy’s best stretches of water for snorkeling and swimming, Palmarola is a tiny island that can be found on the north side of Ponza. With no residents on the island, the only way to access it is via boat. Drop anchor beneath the rocky crops and swim in crystalline waters that don’t even boast a single ripple. With exceptional visibility, it's the perfect spot for donning your mask and flippers and swimming with silvery fish and other sea life. The pale pebbled beach makes a change from sand and as the island is uninhabited, you can expect plenty of peace and serenity. One of the most charming things about exploring Palmarola is the boats laden with ice-cream and other goodies to keep you refreshed in the high heat of the day.
The island of Ponza is nestled between Rome and Naples, off the coast of the Lazio Region. Lush greens surround this charming port and give off the ambiance of rustic tradition. It is also known as the Island of Love, perfect for those charter guests who adore beautiful beaches, authentic experiences, and summertime sweetness. Candy-colored homes, fishermen hauling their catch of the day to shore, and zero pretension make Ponza a dream. Swimming in the numerous hidden coves and dining on fresh seafood pasta is the essence of La Dolce Vita.
Sitting pretty off the coast of Italy (between Rome and Naples), Ventotene is the smallest inhabited island of the Pontine Archipelago. Famed for being estimated to be the island of the Sirens in Homer’s Odyssey. The island is rich in history and was once a favoured place of play for holidaying romans. It was even the place of exile for Emperors and members of these dynasties. Even to this day, you can visit the extravagant former haunts of exiled royalty. Make no mistake, the island is tiny and can easily be crossed in an hour or so on foot. Yet charter guests will find plenty to take their fancy, including many stashed away coves, ancient roman remains, colourful homes, and beautiful beaches.
After a warm welcome onboard, set sail toward the enchanting Island of Ischia, the first gem to
explore in the Gulf of Naples.
Arrive at Ischia Island and enjoy lunch with a stunning view of the Castello Aragonese,
followed by opportunities to swim and play with water toys.
In the afternoon, indulge in the famous thermal baths of Ischia, a perfect chance to relax
and experience the island’s unique natural gifts.
We highly recommend Negombo, renowned as one of the best thermal bath destinations
on the island.
Conclude your day with a leisurely sunset stroll in Ischia Porto, perhaps the most charming
of the island’s seven municipalities, bustling with delightful cafes, restaurants, and shops.
You don’t get better than charming Capri. The graceful gem of the lemon-scented Amalfi Coast, Capri is pure poetry and worthy of a thousand sonnets. Dwarfed by soaring sea cliffs and penned in by the sparkling sea, any other small would disappear against so much drama but not Capri. Brimming with wisteria frothed villas, brightly painted buildings, gardens cloaked in kaleidoscopic colour framed by pergolas, and plump piazzas that are prime people-watching territory, Capri doesn’t fail to utterly enchant. Charter guests will want to visit the famed Grotta Azzurra - this flooded cave was believed to be home to sea nymphs and magic back in Roman days thanks to its iridescent hues of unbelievable blue. The Gardens of Augustus are also worth a stroll and the Villa San Michele is sure to steal your heart. With incredible seafood on offer and divine confection, you won’t go hungry in this happening summer spot.
An archipelago perched between Capri and Positano, the three islands of Gallo Lungo, Rotonda, and Castelluccio are known collectively as Li Galli. Many spots have claimed to be the famed land of the sirens from Greek mythology and Li Galli (also known as the Sirenuses) also claims this title. This trio of rocky islands facing Positano are privately owned. Previously passed through the hands of Russian dancers until owned by other individuals, in the summer months, the islands are often rented out to celebs seeking an exclusive retreat. The islands are home to naturally formed salt water pools for safe bathing, terrace dining for ocean view lunches, and even its own castellon.
Positano is a dramatic, cliffside village on the Amalfi Coast, and without doubt, one of the most photographed and filmed locations in Italy. This chic retreat is a must-stop on your charter. Stroll through the town's narrow streets and admire the vibrant houses perched on the cliffs. Visit the beautiful Church of Santa Maria Assunta, known for its iconic majolica-tiled dome. Discover the local arts and crafts at the shops and galleries scattered throughout the town. Soak up the sun at Spiaggia Grande, Positano's main beach, or take a scenic boat tour along the coast to explore hidden grottoes and secluded beaches. Embark on a hiking adventure along the Path of the Gods, offering panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea.
The scent of lemons, the vision of Pompeii in the distance, and gorgeous Italian seaside towns clinging to the 50km coastline are all why the Amalfi Coast is so special. Amalfi is sure to enchant from Sorrento to Salerno for charter guests truly seeking La Dolce Vita. On this gauzy stretch of coast, you will find incredible seafood dishes, handmade ceramics, sun-soaked piazzas, beautiful beaches, and hidden coves where you can sip crisp white wines with sparkling sea vistas and ornate churches and architecture. Must-see towns along this pearl-like string include Amalfi itself with it's medieval origins, impressive cathedral, pretty port, paper museum, and its fascinating maze of alleys and passages.
Enjoy your breakfast onboard, and after a final swim, set sail from Procida towards Castellammare di Stabia, near Naples.
