DAY 1
Naples - Capri
DISTANCE: 16nm DURATION: 2h 15m
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.
DAY 2
Capri - Amalfi
DISTANCE: 18nm DURATION: 2h 25m
Much like Capri, Amalfi attracts tourists of great prestige. The 50 kilometers of Amalfi coastline stretch primarily from Sorrento to Salerno. It remains a unique and incredibly beautiful location. The hilly towns display Italian engineering and architecture at its finest, with terraced houses dangling from the steep cliffs. This area is a sight to behold.
DAY 3
Amalfi - Paestum
DISTANCE: 22nm DURATION: 3h 0m
Paestum is a magical and atmospheric location that should be included on every classical tour of Italy. This haunting archaeological site, a mile inland from the Sorrento peninsula and the Amalfi Coast, contains three Greek temples in the middle of the countryside. UNESCO has designated Paestum as a World Heritage Site.
DAY 4
Paestum - Stromboli
DISTANCE: 145nm DURATION: 19h 20m
Stromboli is the northernmost island of this archipelago, which can be easily reached from mainland Sicily or from any of the other Aeolian Islands. It is the only island in the world with a permanently active volcano that juts sharply out of the sea, making it a unique charter destination. Because of the small size of this remote island, land transport is not available, making it an idyllic, unspoilt destination, excellent for exploring.
DAY 5
Stromboli - Panarea
DISTANCE: 12nm DURATION: 1h 40m
Panarea is the ideal destination for a luxurious island getaway. Everyone has heard of Capri, but in Italy however, the locals know of Panarea. During the summer, VIPs, actors, and Italy's affluent youth flock to this glamorous little island for yachting vacations, romantic getaways, and late-night parties. Even though Panarea has a rich history, including the remains of a Bronze Age village, tourism has not affected it much and it is still an authentic destination.
DAY 6
Panarea - Filicudi
DISTANCE: 24nm DURATION: 3h 15m
Part of the Aeolian islands, Filiculi has several small villages and very fertile soil, with grapes, olives, grains and vegetables all grown here.
The island is also of great archeological importance as it was a thriving site of production and trade, around 2000 BC. Capo Graziano houses the ruins of over 30 oval huts from that period.
With only 300 residents on the island it is a delightful escape and a peaceful place to set anchor in one of the many quiet coves
DAY 7
Filicudi - Salina Island
DISTANCE: 15nm DURATION: 2h 5m
In the north of Sicily, part of the Aeolian islands, lies Salina Island which has been inhabited since the 4th century. It is a picturesque island destination and a popular destination off which you can easily anchor your yacht for an amazing view of the island's dramatic landscape.
DAY 8
Salina Island - Lipari
DISTANCE: 9nm DURATION: 1h 10m
Lipari offers an excellent choice of beaches and anchors for family charters, along with beautiful churches and museums to please lovers of history & culture. One will also find a delicious choice of local cuisine from the world renowned chefs in the lovely restaurants on the island.
DAY 9
Lipari - Vulcano Island
DISTANCE: 3nm DURATION: 30m
Located at the southern most end of the Aeolian islands, Vulcano Island is named after the Roman god of fire and is of course home to an active volcano which has had frequent eruptions. Don't be put off by the smell of sulphur - it has fantastic hiking paths, beaches that are characterised by dark, volcanic sand and mud baths which are said to have beneficial properties.
DAY 10
Vulcano Island - Milazzo
DISTANCE: 19nm DURATION: 2h 35m
Milazzo is known in Italy as the gateway to the Aeolian Islands. It has maintained an important strategic position since its settlement over 2,500 years ago, with its historical charm still maintained, it makes for an interesting stop on your Sicilian charter.
