A one week sailing journey through Procida, Ischia, Capri and the Amalfi Coast, combining relaxed island hopping, scenic coastal navigation and authentic Mediterranean culture.
Explore one of Italy's most iconic sailing regions, combining the colorful villages of the Amalfi Coast with the volcanic landscapes of the Phlegraean Islands in a single circular route through the Gulf of Naples.
Departing from Procida, the route follows a circular course through Ischia, Capri, Positano and Amalfi, with short daily sailing legs designed to leave more time for exploring than for long passages at sea.
Along the way, the route passes secluded bays for swimming, historic coastal towns and waterfront villages, with each stop offering its own version of traditional Campanian life, from fishing harbors to cliffside piazzas.
Life onboard follows the rhythm of the sea, mornings often begin with a swim before breakfast, followed by a short sailing passage between islands and anchorages. Evenings alternate between peaceful nights at anchor and lively walks through historic harbors, combining nature, culture and authentic local experiences over the course of the week.

The Fountaine Pajot Elba 45 is a 45-foot cruising catamaran designed by Berret-Racoupeau that became one of the most commercially successful models in the yard's history, built around a straightforward design philosophy: maximize the living space available on a 45-foot platform without compromising the sailing performance required to actually enjoy moving between anchorages.
The Elba 45 carries inverted bows, a raised helm station integrated into the cockpit bimini and a flybridge lounge, a layout sequence that Fountaine Pajot introduced across its range and that Yachting World described as excelling at offering big volumes for living on the water. The result is a boat where the outdoor areas are organized in distinct functional zones that allow different members of a group to occupy different spaces simultaneously without getting in each other's way.
The cockpit is the social center, with sofas, a sunbed and a long dining table that seats a full group comfortably. Above it, the fly lounge on the bimini adds a separate reclining and sunbathing area at a height that connects naturally to the helm station below while offering a different vantage point over the water. The foredeck sunpads extend the outdoor living sequence forward, and an optional electrically operated bathing platform spanning the full width between the hulls simplifies tender launch and recovery at anchor without requiring davits on the stern.
Below deck, the saloon is one of the most frequently cited strengths of the boat. Panoramic windows wrap around the coachroof, opening for natural ventilation and flooding the interior with natural light throughout the day. Owners who have crossed oceans on the Elba 45 consistently note the generous and luminous spaces, the layout suited to extended cruising and the stability underway that generates very little noise even in lively conditions. The galley is well positioned and equipped for provisioning over extended periods, and storage throughout the interior is practical and well distributed.
The Elba 45 is available in two configurations. The Maestro version places an owner's suite in the port hull with a large bathroom and separate heads, and two guest double cabins in the starboard hull each with ensuite bathrooms. The Quatuor version offers four double cabins with four ensuite bathrooms suited to charter use. The exact configuration will be confirmed before departure while maintaining the same standard of onboard comfort and space.
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?

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?
