Day 1
Let's start our journey to Salerno. We will meet on Saturday at 17:00, get acquainted, buy everything we need and get ready for departure. The captains will conduct safety briefings and introduce us to our yachts. In the evening you will have dinner from the organizers in a nice restaurant with delicious cuisine. Meet the crews.
Day 2
After breakfast in the morning, we are on our way. We are going to Amalfi, the pearl of the Neapolitan Riviera. The ancient fortress town of Amalfi is one of the historical cultural centers of Italy. Amalfi is only 10 nautical miles away, it's about 2 hours. In Amalfi we'll have lunch and plenty of walking until evening. Selfies against the backdrop of a beautiful sunset will make on the “path of the gods”, the route is simple, and the views are unforgettable!
Day 3
Slow yacht crossing to the island of Procida. Captains will talk about how the yacht is arranged and how to manage it. All crew members this week will try on ship roles and be a boatsman, sailor, navigator, radio operator and helmsman! Procida is the smallest of the islands of the Gulf of Naples. It is not at all like its posh neighbors - the islands of Capri and Ischia. Until 1986, the island served as a prison for especially dangerous criminals, but these times have passed and, now, tourists can enjoy the beauty of the local patriarchal flavor, lemon groves and delicious Italian cuisine.
Day 4
From Procida to Ischia, only 6 nautical miles. We swim, admire the picturesque Procida from all sides and head to the largest island of the Bay of Naples. It is one of the favorite places of tourists, famous for its thermal springs, which we can visit if we wish. Its main attraction is the Aragonese Castle, built in the 15th century, with a monastery, an ancient cathedral and a museum of medieval torture. We will spend the evening in one of the many restaurants, after which you can go to a bar or nightclub, of which there are many.
Day 5
Today we are waiting for the pearl of the Naples coast – the island of Capri. After mooring, we will go to the highest point of the island - Mount Solaro, from where a panorama of the island, the Bay of Naples and the Tyrrhenian Sea opens. Visit Villa San Michele, the remains of Villa Jupiter, where the Emperor Tiberius lived. Dinner in the central square and plunge into the vibrant nightlife of Capri!
Day 6
In the first half of the day we will round Capri, enjoy the azure water, the atmosphere of the island and the picturesque islands of Faraglione and go to Sorrento, sung by many poets and located on the mainland of the Gulf of Naples. Sorrento is located on a rocky high bank from which you can see Vesuvius and beautiful views of the Bay of Naples. On his observation deck we will meet the sunset to the sounds of the piano and the cries of seagulls.
Day 7
We'll set sail in the morning and head to our home marina Salerno. Once again enjoy the sea, sun, light Italian wine, share our impressions and, arriving in Salerno, celebrate our adventure! In the morning we will say goodbye and take with us to the airport unforgettable impressions, warmth and sunshine of these fabulously beautiful places.
