Day to day itinerary
01
DAY
Naples - Ischia
Arrive in Naples and cruise directly to the island of Ischia in the southwest: famous for its hot springs and volcanic mud. Enjoy an exquisite dinner on board and rest at anchor for the night.
02
DAY
Ischia - Galli Islands
Ischia is steeped in mythology, dating back to 5th Century BC when the Greeks evacuated because of its volcanic activity. Characterised by lush semi-tropical vegetation and natural thermal springs, explore the island, before leaving for the Galli Islands to anchor for the night.
03
DAY
Galli Islands - Capri
The Galli Islands are a small group of islands just to the south of Positano on mainland Italy. Here protected anchorages are ideal for swimming and water-sports, so you can enjoy the water. Cruise out to Capri. This cosmopolitan island is the playground of discerning Italian gentry, and has excellent hotels, restaurants and boutiques. Capri also offers some spectacular scenery, from the sheer cliffs of Tiberius’s Leap to the Blue Grotto, both of which are well worth a visit.
04
DAY
Capri - Maratea
After a morning of shopping in Capri, leave for Maratea across the Golfo di Policastri. Its rocky coastline and plentiful beaches present a fabulous contrasting landscape. Breath taking sea views, wooded hillsides and majestic cliffs sweep down to the sea – enjoy a sunset dinner at anchor.
05
DAY
Maratea - Lipari
Spend the day enjoying the clear waters around Maratea and using the water toys or simply relaxing on deck. The nearby Cave of Wonders (Grotta di Maratea) was only discovered in 1929 and well worth a visit. Go ashore to see local villages and wander around the picturesque harbour. Overnight the yacht will move to Lipari.
06
DAY
Lipari
Spend the next three days exploring the unique volcanic islands of Lipari with numerous secluded anchorages – an ideal opportunity for a sunset barbecue ashore on one of the many beautiful deserted beaches. Lipari is the largest island and besides the main town there are four larger villages that are all colourful and attractive with welcoming locals and gorgeous views. Explore deep caverns, steep cliffs and spectacular scenery.
07
DAY
Lipari - Taormina, Sicily
Start early and cruise down through the historic Straits of Messina to the stunning bay and port of Taormina for lunch. The cliff-side village of Taormina has archaeological ruins, a Saracen castle, ancient theatre and popular beaches accessed from land by an aerial tramway. A trip to Mount Etna is a must.
08
DAY
Taormina - Catania
An early departure for a breakfast cruise to Catania and perhaps some shopping ashore before an afternoon departure to the airport.
