Welcome ot the home of Sailing in Naples, Capri and the Amalfi Coast

As well as being dynamic, exciting cities in their own rights, Naples and Salerno are also the starting ports for fantastic cruising of both mainland Italy and nearby islands. You can sail either north to the nearby Pontine Islands, or stay in the Bay of Naples and visit the Partenopean Islands. Typically the sailing around Naples, Procida and the Amalfi Coast involves shorter legs, and incorporates beautiful beaches, rugged landscapes, and plenty of glamorous nightlife.

Highlights of this region include the archaeological site of Pompeii, the Blue Lagoon on Capri, the beautiful volcanic island of Ischia and the popular resorts of the Amalfi coast including Positano, Amalfi and Ravello.

Ischia, Capri, Procida and Vivara are the Partenopean islands in the bay of Naples. To the north of the Gulf are situated Ischia, Procida and Vivara, looking toward the “Flegrea” coast, while in the south of the Gulf, opposite to the Sorrento peninsula, lays Capri. Full of charm is also the Amalfi Coast, with its mixture of history and nature, all to discover.

Procida:
Of the islands embellishing the gulf of Naples, Procida, an isle about four square kilometres large, is the one which has best succeeded in preserving its original, genuine beauty, unpolluted nature and simplicity of life, together with its century-old traditions.

Ischia:
Ischia is the largest island with its 47 square kilometres, the biggest island in the Gulf of Naples, Ischia is one of the most famous seaside and tourist centres of Italy in the world. Today, the island of Ischia is a well-known tourist centre for different reason: for its unequalled natural beauty, for its all-year-round mild climate, for its thermal water and so on.

Capri:
Just off the coast of Naples and Salerno, between Cape Miseno and Amalfi, a great rock soars like a dream lost in the cobalt blue sea that surrounds it. This Mediterranean jewel yearned for and exalted in some of the world’s most famous lyric poetry, is the island of Capri. The intoxicating fragrance of flowers, delicate splashes of colour, recollections of a millennial past and a peaceful charm, shattered only by the shrill cry of seagulls, are just some of the magical qualities of this mythical island.

Amalfi:
Breathtaking views, history, traditions, and modern comforts, are all represented in Amalfian life today, giving its visitors the chance to spend a relaxing, and exciting holiday at the same time. Amalfi origin dates back to the first century A.C. when the Roman aristocracy built luxurious villas in this area.

Today, Amalfi still maintains its fishing traditions, and has a number of fully functional, traditional, fishing boats. Amalfitans are also very proud of one of their most famous mariners, Flavio Gioia, the inventor of the compass. With its views, culture, food, and much more, Amalfi is well worth its grand reputation.

Positano
The town of Positano is located in one of the most beautiful valleys of the Amalfi Coast, and the valley opens up to an equally magnificent stretch of coastline. At the centre of town you can see the brightly coloured "majolica" Dome of Santa Maria Assunta, the main church of Positano, under which fishermen still haul their boats ashore. Positano has a very glamorous side to it, because of the famous "Positano fashion style" (I’ve heard it described as “…a sort of boho-chic with added sequins), this is just one of the many reasons that tourists from all over the world flock to the pathways, and boutiques of Positano each summer.

Sorrento
Sorrento overlooks the Gulf of Naples, fascinating tourists and visitors, who are attracted by breathtaking views and landscapes. The town gives its name to the Sorrento Peninsula, a great area extended from Vico Equense to Massa Lubrense. This area, thanks to its geographical shape, suspended between the green hills and the blue of the seas, is from the time immemorial a great attraction of the southern Italy.
