Procida
Check-in on board of sailing catamaran in Pozzuoli base at 06:00 pm. Short passage to Corricella bay in Procida famous for its village with tightly packed houses built on top of each other in a myriad of different colors. The village is known to be a cheerful place, and offers a breathtaking view, especially when the sun is shining on the colored houses.

Ischia
After traditional breakfast on board, featuring "lingue al limone," we'll set sails to Ischia, the largest island in the bay of Naples. Our sailing trip will take us near Vivara, linked to Procida by a bridge, boasting a nature reserve teeming with rare flora, rabbits, and avian life. After an hour passage we will reach the enchanting Sant’Angelo bay and the picturesque Maronti beach. While the bay itself is a marvel, be sure not to overlook the charming village or the accessible Le Fumarole beach, reached via a quaint path from the heart of the village.
Around 4:00 pm, the catamaran will anchor in a bay near Ischia Ponte, merely 4 nautical miles from Sant’Angelo. Ischia Ponte is renowned for its medieval castle, the Castello Aragonese, commanding views of the bay below. An unforgettable evening unfolds with a dinner aboard the boat beneath the castle, followed by a leisurely stroll through the enticing shops of Ischia Ponte.

Capri
In the morning we will sail from Ischia to Capri. Explore the iconic Faraglioni rocks, venture into the captivating Blue Grotto, and witness the mesmerizing hues of the water as sunlight illuminates the caves. Take an tour around the island to visit the renowned Faro, and stop at Marina Piccola to soak in the italian atmosphere.

Towering mountains, adorned with distinctive colors, command attention over the picturesque bays of Nerano, Positano, and Amalfi. Covering a distance of 8.5 nautical miles, you'll have the opportunity to plunge into the deep waters of Li Galli.
Li Galli comprises three remote and rocky islands—Gallo Lungo, Castelluccio, and Rotonda—situated just a short distance from the shores of Positano, reflecting their beauty in the crystal-clear sea that graces the pearl of the Amalfi coast. Legend says that these islands were once inhabited by mermaids whose enchanting voices lured sailors, causing them to lose control of their ships and collide with the rocks.
Following a brief sail to Positano, covering 4.5 nautical miles, we'll pause to absorb the unparalleled beauty of the landscape that has catapulted Positano and the Amalfi Coast to global fame.
Day

Amalfi
Following breakfast, our sailing adventure will take us to Amalfi, passing through the enchanting landscapes of Praiano and Conca dei Marini. Along the way, we'll make a brief stop to explore the breathtaking Furore Fjord - an awe-inspiring chasm carved into the rock at the mouth of a steep valley that descends into the sea. This hidden gem features a small beach and a charming fishing village.
Spanning the fjord is a suspended bridge, elevated at 30 meters, serving as a pathway for the main coastal road. This location hosts a thrilling high diving championship in July. Just beyond Capo Conca, Amalfi unfolds—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Italy's four historical republics. Brimming with history, it boasts an array of astonishing ancient buildings and museums. Notable landmarks include the Cathedral of St. Andrew in Piazza Duomo, the Basilica del Crocifisso, the Maritime Republic's ancient arsenal, and the paper museum—just a glimpse into the wonders awaiting exploration in Amalfi.

Customer reviews
How customer reviews and ratings work
We use the Average with Prior (also known as Bayesian Average) to calculate the total rating for each sailing cruise
Since new cruises could have very few reviews, each review can significantly impact the average score, potentially leading to misleading representations of the total score (e.g., one very positive or very negative review skewing the overall rating). To mitigate this, we use a "prior" or "default" score.
This means that each cruise, by default, starts with a rating of 4, which is calculated from 5 hypothetical reviews, each rated 4. This assumption provides a baseline level of performance that is neutral-to-positive.
For example, if a new cruise receives a 5-star review, the total rating will be adjusted to 4.17. Here's how it is calculated: (4 × 5) + 5 = 25 and then divided by the total number of reviews 6 (5 default + 1 actual review), resulting in 4.17
As more reviews come in, the weight of the actual reviews increases, and the influence of the prior diminishes.
