We help our
charterers plan their itineraries individually but here is a short guide
to the islands.
Tuscany - for a
visit to the islands of Giglio, Giannutri (also Corsica and Sardinia -
time permitting) and Elba, steeped in Napolianic history. Enjoy the lush
Mediterranean vegetation, numerous villages and be sure to wander into
the hill towns during your visit. The mainland home port is wonderful -
at Cala Galera, a new marina, but it is right next to the lovely
historic towns of Porto Hercole and San Stefano on the Argentario
Peninsula.
Netttuno - Here too the base is one of the highlights. After visiting
the medieval town of Nettuno, proceed to the relatively remote and
serene Pontine Islands. Some have small villages, some are simply nature
at its best. Time permitting include the Naples Bay Islands.
Naples Bay Islands - Capri, Ischia and Prochida - ancient islands,
ancient towns, modern playgrounds - with all the charm Italy can offer.
Time permitting include the Pontine Islands or some coastal stops near
the famous Amalfi Drive.
Aolean Islands -
The bases are nearby on Italy’s mainland or in Sicily for access to
these lovely volcano-formed islands. Tiny villages and numerous beaches
and coves delight the visitor. There is even a live volcano for some
night time fireworks! There are not a lot of safe anchorages but there
are enough for a pleasurable visit.
Sardinia (and the French island of Corsica) - Depart from Sardinia's
fabled Costa Smeralda and visit the stunningly turquoise coves and bays
of this coast. You will also find jet set marina with mega yachts and
mega prices, but all quite part of the scene. Time permitting cruise up
to Corsica for a visit to the craggy cliffs and fascinating towns along
its southern coast.
