Yacht charter in Italy

La bella Italia!

Why sail in Italy? It's the perfect country for sun, food and countless charming villages. From various departure points along the west coast, you'll sail to beautiful spots like Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast or Sardinia.

With around 8,000 kilometres of coastline, Italy is an excellent destination for long, easy evenings at anchor. Sail among volcanic islands in Sicily's Aeolian archipelago, cruise the dramatic Amalfi Coast, or explore the calm, green waters around Elba and the Tuscan Archipelago, each region has its own distinct character.

You can charter the sailing yacht of your dreams in Italy and set off entirely on your own terms.

This is what a sailing holiday feels like!

It was such a successful week! We all came home with a big smile. I found the staff at check-in very friendly and professional. The person who checked us out on the boat was just a bit impatient and a little odd. We had a good laugh about it afterwards. Overall, we had a lovely experience.

Dear Mirjana and Lu,
You really made sure we had the "holiday of our lives"! We booked late, but all the administrative side of things went really smoothly, flexibly and clearly.
The support on location was also spot on: lots of useful information, great bookings and good tips, but with respect for everyone's freedom and privacy during our family holiday.
The sailing yacht you suggested and booked was really great, and the local charter company was also very customer-focused and flexible. Regards,

Fam. E. te B.

Dear, During the Easter holidays we rented a sailing yacht in Greece.
Reception by the company on site: 10!
Sailing yacht: 8.5,
Sailing area Poros: 9,
Journey home: 4, (we wanted to stay longer, but our boss wouldn't approve it).

Thank you!

Family B.

Yes, we really had a wonderful time and everything went very smoothly. Both the charter company and the boat were great. There were also a few things beyond your control, like the weather, the many dolphins, and the wind, but those were fantastic too.

We had a fantastic sailing holiday in Croatia! Check-in was great too: friendly, clear, and thorough, right down to a diver inspecting the boat on our return, with a fair and transparent final bill. The only downside was a busy changeover day that made checking in take a bit longer, but otherwise everything was arranged perfectly. We ate wonderfully and felt at home right away. Croatia is a real must, and we'll definitely be back next year, around the same time (early May), for four days if possible!

Hi Lu,
how's it going? I wanted to personally thank you for your service and for arranging the boat! The boat was truly brilliant, we were the very first renters ever, performance sailing and 10 days. Really great! Thanks again, see you soon
