Amalfi Coast Yacht Charter, Italy

A yacht charter in Italy must incorporate the stunning Amalfi Coast. The Amalfi coast is around a day sail south of Naples. Amalfi and Positano, like Capri, attract visitors and charter yachts of the highest prestige.

The 50 km of the Amalfi coastline stretches mainly from Sorrento to Salerno. It remains a place of rare and incredible beauty. The hillside towns are a truly magnificent display of Italian engineering and architecture. Terrace houses and buildings cling to steep cliffs, rising from the coastline.

Positano, Amalfi and Ravello are the jewels of the Amalfi Coast.

  • Positano has always been a favorite with great artists and the illustrious of Italian history. The enchanting seaside town is doused with picturesque beaches, caves of La Porta and romantic candlelit restaurants.
  • Amalfi, also scenic, is famous for its 6th century Duomo, which is a fascinating blend of culture and architecture. The Duomos original facade is in Oriental style, garnished with brilliant mosaics and bronze doors. Beside the Duomo, sits the Cloister of Paradise, built in Arabian style in the 13th century. It holds ancient sarcophagi, marble sculptures and mosaics.
  • Ravello is perched atop a cliff, rising 350 ft above the sparkling waters of the Amalfi Coast. Ravello has preserved national monuments and historical features, unequalled by many towns in the world. The gorgeous natural surroundings and spectacular views of Ravello, is pleny to inspire a writer or poet.

Time and time again people exclaim that the only way to truly appreciate the beauty of the Amalfi Coast is to approach from the sea. A bareboat or crewed yacht charter along the Amalfi Coast will exceed expectations. There's nothing quite as romantic as anchoring your charter yacht against such a picturesque backdrop.

Like most of the Mediterranean, the Amalfi Coast yacht chartering season runs from April to the end of October. The hottest months are July and August. August, in the height of summer madness, is a time when the Amalfi Coast should be avoided. Italian's flock from the main cities to escape the heat, resulting in an assault of tourists. Ironically, July and August is still the high season for yacht charter. The best times to charter your yacht are generally during shoulder season (May-June and September-October), each side of the main summer season. The temperatures are still comfortable, and the onshore tourists have yet to arrive in their largest numbers.
