ROUTE
AMALFI COAST
MANY EMOTIONS IN A SINGLE TRIP
The incomparable beauty of the Amalfi coast enchants the visitor who comes here in search of exclusive holidays. The lush green terraces of the area suspended above a brilliant sea are natural architecture.
ITINERARY
The Amalfi coast is made up of several small and characteristic villages overlooking the sea. The mild climate in all seasons favors the development of luxuriant vegetation and the cultivation of vineyards and citrus groves. The main city from which the coast takes its name is Amalfi, one of the four maritime republics. The coast that goes from Positano to Amalfi has been defined as the archipelago of the sirens: the legend in fact tells of a distant time of a land and a sea so wonderful that it was a call for the sirens who inhabited the waters between Scilla and Cariddi. The Amalfi coast is nature, sea, and mountains, but it is also art, history and good food.
Exceptional food and wine can be enjoyed in one of the many restaurants in Capri, Amalfi or Sorrento or aboard our catamarans, where the cuisine, offered by our careful crew, is particularly tied to local traditions and products.
On board our boats we want to give you a stay in one of the most enchanted places of our land. Start this journey aboard our catamarans, you will eat an excellent lemon ice cream on the shore of Sorrento beach or swim in the wild bay of Ieranto in Massa Lubrense where you will be captivated by a turquoise, crystalline and inviting sea. The elegant hospitality on board our boats will make your holiday special, tailor-made and totally centered on the customer and his well-being.
Our port of embarkation will be Marina d'Arechi di Salerno and from here we will head west where after a few miles we will reach Amalfi. Here we will have the opportunity to visit the coast of the sirens and Punta San Pietro where there is a very small church overlooking the sea. Once we have had a swim we will then head to Positano where we will moor in front of a beautiful beach known as Spiaggia Grande whose road is full of boutiques and restaurants.
Then, continuing our journey westward, we will leave the Sorrento peninsula and head for the island of Capri, where history and worldliness come together. A crowd of VIPs, from the historic Tiberius to Tom Cruise. Capri knows how to be a witch and fairy, romantic and transgressive, simple and refined while maintaining the Neapolitan and true soul of its people. We will moor at the Marina Grande di Capri if possible or Punta del Monaco we will sail on the Monacone rock and visit the Faraglioni and then moor in the picturesque village of Marina Piccola. It’s a must to drink a classic Neapolitan coffee in one of the many bars in the Capri’s square.
Leaving Capri we will head to the Massa Lubrense and swim in the crystal clear waters in front of it if the wind subsides, allowing a longer enjoyment of such a beautiful view. A few miles further east we will reach Sorrento, then we will enter the Gulf of Naples and moor in the port of Castellammare di Stabia from where it will be possible to make excursions to the archaeological sites of Herculaneum and Pompeii.
After that, we will head to the Neapolitan peninsula, heading for Pozzuoli for a visit to the city of Naples, if desired. Then we will head even further west, rounding Procida and landing in Ischia, the land of magical currents, the island of miraculous waters. We will thus enter the "kingdom of Neptune" marine protected reserve which includes the islands of Ischia and Procida. In the southern part of the island we find Sant'Angelo. splendid agglomeration of houses that form a village appreciated by visitors for its particular architecture and for the presence of thermal water pools.
Ischia is the island with the highest concentration of spas in Europe. At the entrance to the port you will be able to observe the Fungo di Lacco Ameno, a green tuff rock eroded by the wind and the sea. This rock of volcanic origin is the symbol of the island.
We will moor for an evening at the port of Ischia or Casamicciola. The next day we will head towards the charming bays of Ischia to land in Procida in the afternoon where it is possible to moor in Cala Corricella. For the night we can choose whether to stay at anchor in the same bay or moor in the port and enjoy up close Procida relaxing and typical nightlife.
From Procida we will return to Salerno. If we are lucky, on the way back we could spot dolphins and fin whales and then equipped with cameras we could film the fantastic dolphin pirouettes. Happy and satisfied to have lived an unforgettable experience to be repeated and recommended on board our boats and pampered by our crews, we will return to Salerno where we will moor for the last night before the final greetings and hugs.
