Salerno - Amalfi - Positano - Capri - Procida - Ischia - Sorrento - Salerno
.
Amalfi is a town in a spectacular natural setting below great cliffs on the southwest coast of Italy. Between the 9th and 11th centuries it was the seat of a powerful maritime republic. The cathedral of Sant Andrea in the heart of the town, with its striped Byzantine façade, survives from this period. There are also interesting places to visit such as the Arsenale Amalfi museum, which is a medieval shipyard converted into an exhibition space.
From Amalfi we reach Positano, only 7 nm away with our charter boat. It is a charming cliff-side village. It is a well-known holiday destination with steep narrow streets facing the beach. Summers there are long, hot and sunny. You can visit iconic sites such as Amalfi Drive, a road with breathtaking views of the coast that runs along the stretch between the towns of Sorrento and Amalfi, or the beach of Fornillo, with crystal clear waters and a restaurant right on the beach.
Finally we arrive in Capri, one of the most popular destinations on our itinerary. We can anchor our boat in the southern part. Capri is famous for its rugged landscape, exclusive hotels and shops, from designer clothes to limoncello and handmade leather sandals... One of its most famous natural sites is the Blue Grotto, a dark cavern where the sea glows electric blue, the result of sunlight shining through an underwater cave. In summer, Capri's spectacular coastline, full of inlets, is ideal for visiting by boat.
Procida is located between Cape Miseno and the island of Ischia. It has several beaches with crystal clear waters such as the Lingua beach or the Silurenza beach, among others. You also have the option of visiting the majestic Palazzo D'Avalos, which is without a doubt the most visited spot in Procida. The Palazzo D'Avalos, originally a prison, has been a municipal heritage site since 2013 and has become a unique tourist attraction.
Ischia is a volcanic island in the Gulf of Naples. It is known for its mineral-rich thermal waters which spring up on the beach of Maronti in the south. To the east, Roman remains lie under the seabed at Cartaromana beach. The beach overlooks the medieval Aragonese castle, linked to Ischia by a stone bridge.
Sorrento faces the Bay of Naples on the Sorrento peninsula. From atop the cliffs that separate the town from its busy marinas, it is known for its sweeping sea views and Piazza Tasso, a square lined with cafés. The historic centre is a maze of narrow alleyways that is home to the Chies di San Francesco, a 14th century church. Ideal for a stroll after a day's sailing.
Salerno is the start and end point of our journey. At the top of Monte Bonadies, the centuries-old castle of Arechi overlooks the sea, as well as the Medieval Museum of the Castello, which exhibits medieval ceramics and coins. The town, built on the ruins of a Roman temple, is also home to Salerno Cathedral. It has Byzantine bronze doors, a Baroque crypt and a marble altar. We can take the opportunity to visit it before or after our charter.
