A circular cabin charter sailing holiday from Pozzuoli through the islands of Procida, Ischia and Capri, along the Amalfi Coast to Positano, Furore and Amalfi, with a final day in Sorrento before returning to the Gulf of Naples.
The cruise departs from Pozzuoli, on the northern shore of the Gulf of Naples a short distance from the city center, and follows a circular route south and west through the three main islands of the gulf before continuing along the Amalfi Coast and returning to the starting point at the end of the week.
The first days cover the islands of the Gulf of Naples in short successive crossings. Procida, the smallest of the three, is the most visually cohesive, with its pastel facades stacked above the fishing harbor of Corricella and a car-free historic quarter at the top of the island. Ischia, the largest, has a volcanic landscape of thermal springs, lush hillside gardens and the Aragonese Castle rising from a rocky islet just off the eastern coast. Capri brings the most internationally recognized combination of dramatic cliffs, the Blue Grotto, and the Faraglioni rock stacks, along with the Piazzetta and the panoramic paths above Marina Piccola.
The Amalfi Coast section of the route opens after the crossing from Capri, past the Li Galli islands where Greek mythology placed the sirens. Positano is the first stop on the coast, known for its vertical urban structure and its reputation for Mediterranean style. The Furore fjord, one of the most visually striking points on the entire coastline, follows before Amalfi itself, the largest historic town on the coast and once one of Italy's four maritime republics. Ravello, reached by land transfer from Amalfi, adds a quieter and more elevated perspective from the gardens of Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone above the sea.
Sorrento closes the coastal section before the return to the Gulf of Naples, with its panoramic clifftop setting, lemon-scented streets and access to the quieter swimming bays of Nerano and Marina di Puolo just to the east. The final return to Pozzuoli passes Naples from the sea, with its castle, waterfront and the profile of Vesuvius in the background.
Days combine morning sailing and a midday swim stop with afternoon arrivals that leave time ashore, with the balance between time at anchor and time in port shifting as the week moves from the islands toward the more built-up coastal towns.
Itinerary
Day1
Boarding in Pozzuoli and First Anchorage at Procida
Check-in takes place at Pozzuoli marina in the late afternoon, with a crew briefing before setting sail for Procida. The boat anchors in Corricella Bay, one of the most visually distinctive harbors in the Gulf of Naples, with its stacked pastel facades and narrow stairways leading up toward the historic quarter of Terra Murata. The first evening is spent exploring the village and having dinner at one of the waterfront restaurants below the harbor walls.
Day2
Ischia
After a morning swim, the boat sails past the nature reserve island of Vivara before reaching Ischia. Possible stops include Maronti Beach on the southern coast, Sant'Angelo village with its thermal beach, and the area around Ischia Ponte, where the Aragonese Castle rises from a rocky islet directly above the mooring. The evening is spent at anchor or in port beneath the castle, with time to explore the historic lanes and shops of the surrounding area.
Day3
Capri
The crossing to Capri passes the Faraglioni rock stacks from the water, with a stop at the Blue Grotto if sea conditions allow and time at anchor off Marina Piccola. Ashore, the Piazzetta in Capri Town, the boutiques of Via Camerelle and the panoramic paths of Via Tragara above the cliffs all offer different perspectives on an island that rewards both casual wandering and longer walks. The evening is spent on the island.
Day4
Amalfi Coast
Sailing west from Capri passes the Li Galli islands, a small rocky group in Greek mythology associated with the sirens, with a swim stop in clear water before continuing to Positano. The vertical structure of the town, with its houses descending in layers from the hillside to the pebble beach, is best appreciated from the water during the approach. The afternoon is free to explore the steep streets, the boutiques along the seafront and the linen and ceramic shops that line the main lanes. The evening is spent in Positano.
Day5
Positano
Sailing east from Positano past Praiano leads to the Furore fjord, a narrow inlet cut between sheer rock walls with a small beach and a handful of fishing houses at its base, one of the most geographically striking points on the entire Amalfi Coast. The route continues to Amalfi itself, the most historically dense town on the coastline, once one of Italy's four maritime republics, where the Cathedral of Saint Andrew, the old arsenals, the Basilica del Crocifisso and the former paper mill museum are all within easy walking distance of the harbor. The evening is spent in Amalfi.
Day6
Sorrento
A land transfer from Amalfi leads to Ravello, perched around three hundred and sixty-five meters above sea level with sweeping views over the coast from the gardens of Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone. In the early afternoon the boat sets sail toward Sorrento, with swimming stops in Nerano Bay or Marina di Puolo along the way. Sorrento, built on tufa cliffs above the Gulf of Naples, has a lively historic center, panoramic terraces and easy access to quiet beaches below the town. The night is spent in Sorrento Bay.
Day7
Sorrento - Naples
A slow morning in Sorrento before sailing back toward the Gulf of Naples along the coastline, with views of Castel dell'Ovo, the Posillipo hill and the island of Nisida as the boat approaches the northern shore of the gulf. The final evening is spent on board in Pozzuoli marina. Disembarkation takes place the following morning after breakfast, by 9am.

What to pack for a sailing holiday?
Pack smart for your yacht charter: choose a soft bag instead of a hard suitcase, bring lightweight layers, reef-safe sunscreen, and non-slip shoes for onboard use. A couple of swimsuits and motion sickness remedies can also make a big difference. Each boat has limited storage, so pack light, but wisely! Need help building the perfect list?

What’s a Typical Day Like on a Yacht Charter?
Start your day with a swim in a quiet bay, sail to hidden beaches or seaside villages, and enjoy a slow lunch on deck. Afternoons mean snorkeling, sunbathing, or exploring ashore. As the sun sets, your boat anchors in a scenic cove or near a harbor, ready for a relaxed dinner and a night under the stars. Curious about the full experience? Discover more in our guide: What’s a typical day like on a sailing holiday?
Who Handles Cooking and Cleaning on a Yacht Charter?
On skipper-only charters, guests usually share cooking and cleaning duties, think salads, pasta, and good teamwork. If there's a hostess, light meals and tidying are included, but it's still a casual, collaborative vibe. On fully crewed yachts, you’ll enjoy full service with a chef and crew managing everything.

What Happens in Case of Bad Weather During a Sailing Holiday?
Summer sailing holidays rarely face major weather issues, but when the sea gets rough, skippers adjust the route for your safety. Expect protected bays, marina stops, or a change in plan. These moments often lead to unexpected gems: local towns to explore, time to relax on board, or cozy dinners ashore. Curious about how crews handle these changes?

This sailing holiday exceeded every expectation. From the beginning, the crew was attentive and knowledgeable, making everything run smoothly. I enjoyed how each day combined time at sea with exploring on land. My favorite moments were swimming near the cliffs of Capri, discovering Ravello’s gardens, and walking the quiet streets of Procida at sunset. The boat life was easy to fall into, waking up with the sun, sharing meals on deck, and watching the coastline drift by. It was peaceful yet full of new experiences every day. Ischia’s hot springs were a surprise highlight, and the views sailing into Positano were simply breathtaking. The group atmosphere was friendly, and we all bonded quickly over good food and shared memories. If you're looking for a unique and scenic way to travel in Italy, this is it. I can’t wait to recommend this trip to all my friends back home.

Sailing through the Amalfi Coast and islands was a dream come true. Every day brought a new view, seaside cliffs, pastel villages, and beautiful blue water. On board, everything was comfortable and well-organized, and I quickly felt at home. I loved starting the day with a swim and ending it with local wine and stories on deck. We stopped in unforgettable places, Capri’s Faraglioni, Ischia’s hot springs, the colorful harbor of Procida. Amalfi and Positano were perfect for strolling and shopping, with incredible food around every corner. The pace was just right: some adventure, lots of beauty, and time to simply relax. The crew was friendly and made every effort to create a welcoming atmosphere. I honestly didn’t want the week to end. For anyone wanting to see Italy from a different angle, I can’t imagine a better way. I’ll definitely be booking another trip next summer!

What an incredible way to explore Italy! From the moment we boarded, the crew made everyone feel welcome and at ease. The route was well-planned, with just the right amount of time sailing and exploring on land. I really enjoyed stopping at Ravello and walking through its historic gardens, as well as swimming in the clear waters around Ischia. On board, the atmosphere was friendly and relaxed, with evenings spent dining under the stars. Every stop brought something new: Procida’s colorful charm, the dramatic cliffs of Capri, and Amalfi’s lively streets. The catamaran made it easy to access quiet bays and scenic harbors. I had never done a trip like this before, but now I understand why so many people recommend it. This was more than just a vacation, it was a real adventure. I’d absolutely recommend this journey to anyone curious about the Italian coast.

This sailing trip along the Amalfi Coast and nearby islands was the perfect way to experience Southern Italy. Life on board was relaxed, with plenty of space to enjoy the view, read, or share a meal with fellow travelers. The crew took care of everything and always had great suggestions for spots to swim or places to visit. Each destination felt unique, Capri with its stunning cliffs, Ischia’s thermal baths, and the colorful streets of Procida were unforgettable. I especially loved anchoring near Amalfi and exploring the town’s history and food. Watching the coastline from the deck during sunset was a highlight. It was the ideal mix of sailing, sightseeing, and downtime. Whether you’re traveling solo or with friends, this is an experience worth booking. I’m already thinking about my next trip, maybe Sardinia or the Ionian islands next time!
