Discovering Campania by boat is an adventure that provides some great surprises. This region also hides stunning treasures inland, but it’s on the coast that you’ll find the most fascinating places. From the Gulf of Naples to the Sorrento and Amalfi Coasts, which have been showcased in many films, it’s difficult to decide on the destination for your boat holiday. And not only in winter: the sun offers the perfect climate all year round. Sleep on a boat or choose a rental for a private cruise: this will be your only uncertainty.
Sorrento is the ideal base for a holiday in Campania. From this little jewel encrusted in the coas, you can reach the most beautiful places in the area. Like Pompei, where it’s literally possible to walk through history. The city is in fact “crystallised” in the moment of one of the biggest eruptions of Mount Vesuvius: an emotion that will take you travelling through time.
Similarly, a visit to Naples is also not to be missed: a city of a thousand faces and mysteries, where modernity and antique traditions meet and live in harmony. And where it’s impossible not to taste the specialities of a cuisine that’s envied around the world: from pizza to street food.
Next you can shelter in the peace and tranquility of the little village of Sorrento, where you can spend a couple of hours relaxing on the beach before returning to sleep on board, far from the confusion and chaos, while the moon illuminates the bay.
The Amalfi Coast is 50 kms of coastline offering unforgettable landscapes. So, the best way to discover them is from the sea, on board a beautiful yacht for a private cruise. Because only on a boat holiday is it possible to reach the most stunning and inaccessible corners of what is known as the Divine Coast.
Starting with the Maritime Republic of Amalfi, where you can discover the typical lemon-based specialities. And where there is also the chance to treat yourself to a taste of the local wines, which are fragrant and light.
From there you can then continue with some shopping in Positano, the city of fashion, where, between little shops and luxury boutiques it’s possible to find vintage clothes and the latest fashion items. And for those who love diving, the place to be is Punta Campanella, the headland that separates the Gulf of Naples with that of Amalfi. A marine protected island that can become the theatre for some spectacular diving.
It’s impossible to think of a boat holiday in Campania without visiting Capri. There are lots of places to visit, even though it’s only a small island. The Blue Grotto is one of the world’s unique phenomenons, a place where light and colours blend, while the legendary square is perfect for a coffee or an aperitif whilst feeling like a Hollywood star.
Travelling is not only for reaching a destination, but also experiencing the place we find ourselves in. And Campania offers a sea of travel experiences to choose from. From excursions in search of the territory, to the possibility of trying new sporting activities, to tasting the local products. Everything you need to transform a holiday into something unique and special.
