Ultimate Events

A Bay of Naples sailing itinerary takes you to the stunningly beautiful Phlegraean and Pontine islands stretching westward into the Tyrrhenian Sea from the Gulf of Naples, and to the picturesque harbors of the Amalfi coast on the Sorrento Peninsula just south of Naples in the region of Campania (see Bay of Naples maps). Both cruising grounds are enchanting and blend the bustle of chic ports of call such as the Isle of Capri with the quiet ambience of small Amalfi fishing villages such as Cetara. Swimming and sunbathing on pristine beaches, sightseeing tours of castles, fascinating archaeological sites, and historic island and coastal towns, browsing in eclectic boutiques where fashion is of the first order, and dining in fine restaurants serving exquisitely prepared local cuisine are among the many pleasures of sailing in these waters known for gentle winds and splendid anchorages.

Ischia Island
For centuries Ischia has been known as the Green Island for its lush Mediterranean vegetation and thick pine forests. It was an important port through the ages, a trading center first for the Greeks, who anchored in the bays nearly 3,000 years ago, then for the Romans, and many others. Ischia vacations are a delight for the senses.

Ventotene Island
Part of the Pontine Island group, Ventotene is situated between Ponza Island to the west and Ischia to the east, with tiny Santo Stefano nearby. Ventotene Island yacht charters bring you to a much more laid-back area, where you can relax and enjoy Old World Mediterranean charm.

Ponza Island
Just under five miles in length, narrow, and crescent-shaped, Ponza Island is mountainous in spite of its small size. Its rugged heights rise 915 feet at the summit of Monte La Guardia. The views from the top are spectacular and well worth the hike. Beautiful beaches and coves, ocean caves, and quiet anchorages make Ponza cruising an idyllic Mediterranean experience.

Palmarola Island
Mostly uninhabited, Palmarola Island is a natural Mediterranean paradise situated at the west end of the Pontine group. Like so many of its nearby neighbors, the island is volcanic in origin. Caves, cliffs, and craggy heights front the rugged coast, looking much the same as it did when the Greeks sailed these waters almost 3,000 years ago. The beauty of Palmarola Island yacht charter is breathtaking.

Capri Island
Capri Island yacht charters, the jewel of Southern Italy, is a wonderful experience. Historic sites, hiking trails, and scenic anchorages are just some of the pleasures of Capri Island sailing.

Procida Island
Sailing in Procida waters is your gateway into the beauty of the Phlegraean and Pontine islands, and the picturesque coast of Amalfi.

Year-round temperatures range from 78°F to 80°F (25°C to 26°C).TAHITI HIGHLIGHTS

Although Bora-Bora, Raiatea, Tahaa, and Huahine are neighbors, each island has a slightly different ambience. The exquisite reefs, motus, and beaches are too. But on one island the emphasis may be more on catering to the chic, while on another Nature is supreme.

The very name Bora-Bora conjures images of a far-off South Pacific paradise. The island has long been a favorite of sailors, and it still is. A single barrier reef encircles the two islands that make up Bora-Bora. The black basalt rock face of Mt. Otemanu rises 2,362 feet above an azure sea, with impressive Mt. Pahia nearby. Both dominate the heights and provide breathtaking views from the anchorages in the lagoon, one of the key attractions because of its superlative snorkeling and swimming. The smaller island, Topua, is all that’s left of the ancient volcano of Bora-Bora. Secure anchorages, white-sand beaches, restaurants, shops, art galleries, luxury resorts, and island tours are among the pleasures of a visit to Bora-Bora.

Raiatea

The second largest island in French Polynesia (Tahiti is the largest) and the largest of the Tahitian Leewards, Raiatea was known as the Sacred Island. In many ways, it’s still the cultural heart of Tahiti because of its rich history.

Tahaa

The fragrant scent of vanilla fills the air on Tahaa, just north of Raiatea and encircled by the same barrier reef. In fact, 80 percent of all the vanilla in French Polynesia is grown in the mountain valleys of Tahaa, earning it the nickname of the Vanilla Island. Plantation tours are an interesting sojourn ashore. Black pearls, one of the prizes of the region, are grown on aquatic farms, some of which are open to the public. Local artisans craft fine jewelry featuring the pearls, and the intricate and beautiful bracelets, necklaces, and rings are for sale in shops throughout the Tahitian Leewards. Tahaa is home to a sea turtle preserve, where visitors can observe the creatures in a park setting. The island has many fjord-like inlets both scenic and well protected for anchoring, and the snorkeling on the reef is superb. White-sand beaches are ideal for swimming and picnicking.

Huahine

Locally known as the Garden Island for its lush tropical forests and agricultural land used to grow crops such as vanilla, copra, and even watermelons, Huahine is actually two mountainous islands spanned by a short bridge.

Please RSVP if interested and see if we have enough to plan a go!

See you there!
