Since a catamaran yacht has more room, it makes you feel like you are at home. This is due to several factors, the most important of which is the hull shape. It also gives you an opportunity to discover something new and have an amazing adventure on a catamaran yacht of your choice. Heads and showers are separated, and cabins provide enough room for spacious and comfortable master beds. Almost all the catamarans have 6 to 4 cabins, and some have up to 8 cabins, but we also have owner’s versions that have 3 cabins (one cabin plus a bathroom in one hull). We can offer catamarans in Italy for 10 passengers plus the crew. With a width from 30 ft they are a sailing luxury four bedrooms apartments! Children  can be on the deck without any worry that they could fall overboard when the boat is leaning; let your friends sunbathe while you sail the boat by yourself, or better yet, let the skipper do it. Although the principles of sailing are the same for both, catamarans and monohull yachts are both more stable and faster.

If you want amazing sailing comfort, exceptional stability, and great speed, a catamaran is the right choice for you. Another advantage of renting a catamaran is that it is easier to navigate on the sea than sailing or motor yachts. They have really shallow drafts, so you can go where monohulls cannot go. Charter a catamaran in Italy and find beautiful beaches, crystal clear water, and hospitable people.

The stability of a catamaran comes from its wide beam and length. Another great advantage is that they are wider than monohulls.

Fantastic experience chartering out of Golfo Aranci. It’s so relaxed and with less stress. You’re also immediately on your holiday as it’s a good hour north out of Olbia. Most importantly the boats were brand new and Roberto and his Barcando team were super nice and helpful. Such a great experience compared to some of the bigger harbour charter bases. Aranci is also lovely for your last night.

Absolutely fantastic experience, we loved it. The whole thing was fabulous, from the beaches and coastline we saw, the flexibility and responsiveness of the company and especially Elisabetta, and the last minute upgrade! Thank you so much for an unforgettable few days we had as a group.

BednBlue Guarantee

Hiring a catamaran in Italy is a fantastic way to explore the unique coastline and beautiful islands that rest between the Ligurian and the Tyrrhenian Sea. At any moment while sailing you will be desperate to drop anchor to enjoy the Italian seafood, shop within the narrow streets, or visit famous sites. A catamaran adventure in Italy is the perfect opportunity for both sea lovers and explorers to combine sailing and on-land experiences. Italy has various marinas that extend along the immense coastline, so you will never have trouble finding the ideal catamaran of your choice. You can directly contact the owners for the ideal vessel or simply allow a BednBlue travel expert to guide you with some recommendations.

You have plenty of options:

You can hire a catamaran with a skipper--or without one, if you have a license--and enjoy a one-day cruise along the Italian Riviera or the Amalfi coast. You can also book a catamaran for a sunset cruise, throw a party, or celebrate a wedding anniversary. Lastly, for a multi-day adventure, we recommend you to explore Sicily and the Aeolian Islands with a luxury catamaran. 

Catamaran in Italy

 Italy is bounded by the Ligurian and Tyrrhenian seas to the west and the Adriatic Sea to the east. The Ligurian Sea is like an arm of the Mediterranean Sea that extends towards Tuscany and the island of Elba, which offers an introduction to the history dating back to Napoleon Bonaparte. The islands in Tuscany boast luxurious quarters and resorts starting from the center of the Riviera, Genoa, which today hosts the most important port for cruising and tourism. Millions of visitors descend to Italy to enjoy the pastel-colored seaside villages, the rugged coastlines, and to be part of the modern luxury that extends from the Italian Riviera to the Amalfi Coast. 

 A catamaran holiday in Italy guarantees a life-changing experience, whether you are visiting the Italian Riviera in the north of Sicily in the south. If you have decided to cruise along the Italian Riviera, you have the option to spend multiple days in Portovenere, around the area of La Spezia, or enjoy your time in the fishing village of Portofino in Genoa, home to one of the prettiest superyacht marinas in the world. For the perfect one-day cruise, your catamaran can follow the dramatic coastline and head to Cinque Terre, known for its authentic shining villages, which have been inaccessible by land for centuries. Cinque Terre is also known for its spectacular restaurants, so you will not miss out on the Ligurian specialties of Pesto, anchovies, and a fantastic bowl of condiglione on a sun-kissed afternoon.  

 For a two- or three-day catamaran charter in Italy, you can head to Tuscany. This town can easily be reached from Cinque Terre, where you can immerse yourself in complete isolation in the small beaches of Viareggio and Livorno. Isola d’Elba (Elba island) is also within your reach and marks a fantastic cruise around the Tuscan Archipelago. Do not miss the chance to visit Portoferraio and Capa Bianco beaches, which are perfect for families and children. 50km south of Elba and 15km from the mainland, you have the option to go swimming and snorkeling in Giglio island, where you explore underwater shipwrecks. By paying a visit to Pianosa island, you will be able to jump off your catamaran and swim in some great diving spots. The whole archipelago of Tuscany can be yours where you can create your own routes and visit all 7 different islands that it’s composed of. You also have the option to sail between Maddalena national park and the Costa Smeralda, which is another one of Italy’s gems. You can even make a crossing to Corsica and create your own week-long itineraries.

 With a catamaran rental in Italy, you can explore the dramatic coast of Amalfi. This coast is in close proximity to the Bay of Naples, giving you the option to make multiple stops in various ports, beaches, and scenic villages built on steep rock. From Positano, you can cruise into the isle of Capri. The towering rock formations of the Faraglioni are one of the most romantic spots in Italy, where you can propose to your significant other on board a luxury catamaran. If you begin a yacht charter in Italy from Naples, you will then have the option to enjoy a gentle cruise to Ischia and Procida. You can spend time at the port of Procida, known for its private beaches, perfect for a family on holiday. The main town, Piazzetta, provides excellent shopping opportunities, some of the finest sections of eateries, and hosts multiple events during the summer. For a multi-day experience, you can combine your itineraries with Naples and Amalfi and even go island-hopping to Sicily and the Aeolian islands.

 If you want to enjoy a luxury sailing trip in the Mediterranean, do not miss the chance to visit Sardinia and Sicily. The island of Sardinia has three airports, making it easy for many travelers to hire a catamaran of their choice and explore Costa Smeralda’s captivating views as well as the rich diversity of landscapes in Olbia. Some of the most beautiful islets you cannot miss include La Maddalena, Tavolara, Budelli, Spargi, and Caprera, all offering various amenities, opportunities for swimming and snorkeling, as well as powdery white beaches that are always dotted with sailboats, catamarans, and luxury motor yachts, during the summer months. Costa Smeralda is a glittery playground for yachts and celebrities and a place one can enjoy the music in some of its glamorous nightclubs. Areas in northern Sardinia, including Alghero and Dorgali, can get very windy since the mistral wind is dominant most of the year. In this case, better hire a catamaran with a skipper who knows how to get around the jagged coastline.

 Sicily is the biggest island in the Mediterranean and often includes the Aeolian islands in week-long itineraries, as there is so much to explore. The 7 islands in the archipelago are Lipari, Panarea, Vulcano, Stromboli, Salina, Alicudi, and Filicudi. With the island’s active volcanoes in the background, you can enjoy the magnificent coastlines that radiate serenity. The mouthwatering Sicilian cuisine only makes your culinary journey even more exciting. You can then head back to your catamaran at any moment or relax at the spa-like beaches, in the sulphuric islands you choose. This side of Italy has locals who will invite you to their community with open arms and will definitely mark the end of an unforgettable experience during your sailing holidays in Italy.

What can I do with an Italy yacht rental?

The Italian peninsula is located in the centre of the Mediterranean Sea, shaping and dividing the surrounding sea. Italy offers a plethora of destinations for boating enthusiasts, making a boat hire in Italy the ideal way to explore the country.

Sail in the Adriatic Sea along the romantic Venetian coast, the home of great sailors. Or enjoy the sparkling sea by Puglia and Salento, cities rich in classical culture and history. Sail on the Tyrrhenian Sea and take in Ligury’s melancholic coasts that inspired many poets of the past. Then experience Tuscany’s impressive waters and explore the nearby islands such as Elba island. Additionally, Naples is an amazing place to charter a boat in Italy. From traditional Neapolitan pizza to the charming Amalfi coast, you will not get bored!

A sailing trip in Italy would not be complete without a voyage to Italy’s two largest islands: Sicily and Sardinia. Sardinia features ancient Roman ruins and amazing beaches. Take a walk around the city walls in Alghero and don't miss Cala Brandinchi beach or the chance to try a roast suckling pig, a local delicacy!

Sicily has year-round sunshine and famous Roman ruins, including the Valley of the Temples. Be sure to visit Mt. Etna, one of Europe’ only active volcanoes! Check the conditions before you go to ensure your safety - the volcano last erupted in 2017. You can start your trip anywhere and choose your own adventure, thanks to our private boat charters in Italy.

Italian cuisine

You may think you know all about Italian food, with pizza, pasta, and gelato galore! However, Italian cuisine is diverse and full of surprises. As you travel from region to region, the local cuisine changes significantly. Seafood dominates in the south. Calabrian cuisine is spicier than expected. Don't miss 'nduja, a spreadable salami-style sausage that pairs perfectly with toast or pasta.

You'll also find the world's best tomatoes near Naples, grown on the volcanic soil of Mt. Vesuvius, which are used to make authentic Neapolitan wood fired pizza, with buffalo mozzarella and basil. Enjoy your yacht holidays in Italy by sailing through different beaches and coves and indulging in the country's delicious cuisine.

How is the weather in Italy?

Due to the size of the Italian peninsula, the climate varies depending on the region. The majority of the country experiences a temperate climate. However, the northern areas experience a glacial climate typical of the Alpine regions. The south has a sub-tropical climate, similar to North African countries. The Mediterranean climate changes depending on the sea area.

The Tyrrhenian Sea is mostly hot in summer and mild in winter, with rainfall concentrated in winter towards the south. The Adriatic Sea is hot and dry in summer, making it perfect for those who love sailing. Sicily and Sardinia have long, hot, and dry summers, which make them the perfect summer destinations for those who love sailing.

Summer temperatures reach around 26º/28ºC from Tuscany and Lazio until Campania. Temperatures reach over 30ºC in Calabria and surrounding islands. The weather in this area is perfect for those who want an Italy yacht charter to have a summer sailing holiday.

Sunny days are prevalent in an Italian summer. This weather is perfect for renting a motorboat or RIB and enjoying the best of the Italian coastline. Although Italy does experience some rainy days, there are usually only about 60 days of rain per year on the coast from Liguria to Salento, through Lazio and the islands. The coast from Veneto and Emilia Romagna receives slightly more rainfall, about 80 days per year.

The Amalfi Coast (Positano, Capri, Sorrento) Best for : Pretty towns, UNESCO-listed scenery, celebrity-spotting, romantic venues

East Coast Italy (Apulia, Puglia, Bari) Best for : Wine tasting, hiking, authentic restaurants

Venice (Veneto) Best for : Art galleries, theatres, ancient architecture

Ligurian Riviera Yacht Charters

Also known as the Italian Riviera, Liguria Riviera yacht rentals are characterised by centuries-old architecture, historic landmarks, and craggy cliffs.  Highlights of the Italian Riviera include  Cinque Terre , a string of former fishing towns carved into the hills overlooking the sea. Nearby  Portofino  shares the same type of brightly-coloured buildings and is a magnet for superyacht charters.

Amalfi Coast Yacht Charters

Amalfi Coast yacht rentals are one of the most beloved cruising grounds in Italy. Also known as the Sorrentine Peninsula, the coast stretches from Naples to Salerno, covering towns such as Sorrento , Positano, Ravello and Amalfi. Islands including Capri and the Phlegrean archipelago (which covers Ischia, Procida and Vivara) are included in the Amalfi Coast. The region has limited beaches, but plenty to see and do onshore- you won't ever be bored on the Amalfi Coast! 

The island of nearby Capri is steeped in culture, history and natural beauty. Explore the ancient villas, and discover the wonders of the legendary Blue Grotto.

Sardinia Yacht Charters

Located in the Tyrrhenian sea next to the French island of Corsica , Sardinia is hugely different to the Italian mainland. In contrast to the steep bluffs and deep sapphire sea of the Amalfi Coast and Italian Riviera, Sardinia is bordered by sugary sand beaches and crystal-clear bays. 

The north-east coast of the island is the most popular for visiting yachts. For keen sailors, a voyage around La Maddalena archipelago can't be beaten- it's the same location where a number of prestigious regattas are held and it sits on the famous  Costa Smeralda , which   is well-known for its beaches and fantastic snorkeling opportunities.   Porto Cervo is a luxury-lovers dream, with its high-end shops and designer emporiums close to the main port. Meanwhile, Olbia is the quieter sister of Porto Cervo, where you can while away the day wandering around museums and admiring the architecture. 

Venice Yacht Charters

A cultural gem of Italy, Venice is a city that is primed for of art and theatre fans. There are countless museums and art galleries for you to explore during your visit, and while you can't cruise your yacht through the city's inner waterways, you can indulge in a gondola ride- and that's far more intimate and romantic!

Nearby, the island of Murano is famed for its production of unique hand-blown glass art, and makes the perfect stop for a day wandering the boutiques and galleries. 

Yacht charters in Venice can also incorporate the beautiful neighboring destinations of Croatia into their itinerary. Speak with your yacht charter broker for more information.

An Italy yacht rental vacation offers an abundance of things to see and do. Here is our small selection of some of the most impressive:

Don't Miss:

• Chryst of the Abyss , an 8-ft bronze statue that stands 17m below the surface of the sea in Portofino, creating a popular diving spot.
• Fontelina , an iconic beach club set on the rocks in Capri.
• Villa Rufolo , a villa with beautiful, manicured gardens overlooking the sea in Ravello.
• Il San Pietro di Positano , a pretty hotel with an elegant terrace looking out over the ocean in the cliffs of Positano.
• The Faraglioni , a rock formation off the coast of Capri.
• Cala Goloritze , in Sardinia, a white-sand beach which is consistently voted one of the prettiest in Europe.
• Hotel Splendido , timeless hotel and SuperyachtSet hotspot in the hills looking out over the bay of Portofino.
• The Sunken City of Baiae , a small city that sunk into the sea during Roman times close to Naples.
• The Blue Grotto , or Grotto Azzura, a semi-submerged cave in Capri where the light refracts the sunlight from outside, creating a mesmerizing optical illusion. 

From family-friendly fun to dazzling party hotspots, Italy provides it all. You can enjoy laid-back cruises or jam-packed island-hopping and finish your yacht charter with enough memories to last a lifetime.

With a rich history stretching back thousands of years, Italy has long been a pilgrimage destination for culture vultures across the globe, who come in their droves to absorb its beautiful architecture, fine art and iconic culture. From the colosseum in Rome and world-famous artists to its iconic fashion houses, the allure of Italy's rich history and culture is clear.

You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to superyachts for charter in Italy, with one of the largest and most diverse fleets in the world for you to choose from.

Motor Yacht Charters in Italy

You can choose between a small, fast and sporty motor yacht , or a larger one with all the latest amenities; or something in between the two. Motor yachts with planing hulls are ideal for you if you want to zip between destinations quickly. They are sleek, sexy and ideal for speed demons. However, be aware that they consume more fuel and will be less stable at anchor.

Motor yachts with displacement and semi-displacement hulls are generally slower, but offer more space as well as stability at anchor. The largest yachts in the international charter fleet are all displacement or semi-displacement.

Sailing Yacht Charters in Italy

There are plenty of sailing yachts for charter in Italy. Choose between a high-performance ketch, a classic sloop or a catamaran for increased on-board volume. 

The country’s west coast is better for experienced sailors who aren’t afraid of wind and swell. The east side is more relaxed, and you can easily incorporate some island-hopping around Croatia into your vacation. 

With so many options available, there’s something to suit every type of budget in Italy. The average prices for motor and sailing yacht charter in Italy are as follows;

• An Italy motor yacht rental can range from $32,600 to $1.3m per week plus expenses
• A sailing yacht charter in Italy averages from $29,000 to $560k weekly plus expenses

Italy’s charter season runs between April and October. Peak season is in July and August, when the mercury’s at its peak and rainfall and wind levels are at their lowest. Savvy charterers looking to save some money should consider chartering a yacht in Italy during shoulder season, which is generally between April and May, and September and October. While these months aren’t as lively as peak season, you can still enjoy warm weather, fewer tourists, and less competition for slips.

Italy’s west coast is the most popular region for yacht charters, and most of clients will usually book a week or more in order to fully experience all that this slice of paradise has to offer.

Most yacht rentals begin in Naples with access to the most popular destinations like the Amalfi Coast, Capri and Sardinia . For yacht charters on the Italian Riviera, most people begin in Genoa .

You can browse our selection of tailor-made itineraries to help you choose the type of vacation that’s right for you;

Where to End a Italy Yacht Charter

The most popular destination for beginning or ending a yacht charter is by far and wide Naples , especially for the Amalfi Coast, thanks to its excellent international links and well-provisioned superyacht marinas. 

While exploring Italy by yacht, you will find plenty of marinas that cater to a wide range of superyachts. This includes: 

• Marina di Stabia  is a luxury marina close to Naples, which caters to yachts up to 100m.
• Marina Molo Luise  is a second option close to Naples, which caters to yachts measuring up to 140m.
• Porto Lotti , located in the Italian Riviera, caters to yachts of up to 100m. 
• Darsena Fontanelle on the East Coast has a maximum capacity of 60m.
• Venice Yacht Pier , which has the capacity to host yachts of up to 120m.

Italy is one of our most popular destinations in the summer months. Therefore, advanced booking is crucial if you want to secure your perfect yacht, in your ideal destination on your preferred dates.

Your broker will also need plenty of time to tailor an itinerary to suit you, and enough time to book ahead for the nights you wish to spend in marinas. We recommened booking up to 3 months in advance to give your yacht charter broker the optimum time to organise everything down to the last detail.

If you’re looking to explore two regions that aren’t far from each other (for example the Amalfi Coast and Sardinia) you should consider 7 days. Your itinerary can incorporate an overnight cruise to ensure you don’t waste a day underway.

For more than two regions, or if you’re looking to spend more than one night in any destination, you should consider an itinerary that is longer than 7 days. This will give you enough time to fully experience everything that this beautiful Mediterranean destination has to offer.

Italy is a vast country that covers many sub-regions, so be sure to consider this when browsing our itineraries. Many people will choose to start and end their vacation in Italy, but it’s also possible to incorporate neighbouring countries into an itinerary; a popular destination is the South of France, but you could also incorporate Croatia or Greece.

Italy Yacht Charter Q&A

Italy is one of the yachting capitals of the world, and certain regions are extremely busy during peak season.

You should start the booking process as early as possible, particularly if you’re looking to spend some nights in port. Marinas such as Marina Grande in Capri and Marina di Portofino are among the most in-demand in the Mediterranean, so be sure to let your broker know if you’d like to book a berth in either of these.

As with all popular travel destinations, Italy can be congested and touristy in the height of summer. Cultural sites and landmarks will always be popular attractions, but you can avoid the crowds by dining at exclusive restaurants and beach clubs, which you can find in our Points of Interest section.

In most European countries, VAT is charged on yacht charters. The percentage varies from country to country. Italy charges 22% on the cost of the charter, however, there are some instances where this can be reduced depending on time spent chartering in international (or non-EU) waters. Talk to your charter broker for more information. 

If you’re looking to explore one or two areas of Italy, we recommend a 7-day itinerary. However if you’re looking to explore multiple regions of Italy, you should plan a longer itinerary. Luckily, there’s plenty of room for flexibility and longer and shorter itineraries can be arranged according to the needs of your charter party.

With a huge variety of yachts to choose from, there’s a charter yacht in Italy to suit every budget. 

For a mid-sized motor yacht during peak season, you can expect to pay anywhere between $90,000 to $300,000 per week plus expenses during peak season. 

You should be aware that the price displayed next to the yachts on our site are base rates, and do not cover additional expenses.

Additional costs include the cost of fuel, berthing, VAT, crew tips and food and beverages. You should factor these costs in and typically expect to pay upwards of 30 - 35% of the base rate on top of your charter fee. 

To help you get an idea of the yachts that are available, you can browse ALL crewed yachts available for charter in Italy on our site. When you’ve chosen your perfect yacht, you can make an inquiry and a charter broker will be in touch. 

They will take care of the booking process, and talk to you about what you want from your vacation so that they can provide you with an incredible experience down to the very last detail. 

If you’re still undecided on the yacht that you want, that’s not a problem; your charter broker will consider your requirements and recommend a selection for you.

There are plenty of opportunities for sailing in Italy. The country’s west coast is ideal for experienced sailors who don’t mind wind and swells. Islands like Sicily, Sardinia, Capri and Ischia are all great locations for a sailing vacation. Meanwhile, Italy’s sheltered east coast is typically calmer, and you could even incorporate some island-hopping in Croatia. 

Our clients typically book a yacht charter in Italy between June and August. However, the weather in certain regions is still pleasant as early as June and as late in the season as September.

In September in particular, the seas are warmer and there are far fewer tourists, so this could be a good time to visit if you’re looking for a more relaxed vacation. 

Where you begin your yacht charter in Italy depends on where you want to charter. One of the most popular start destinations is Naples, which provides access to all the most well-known yachting destinations including the Amalfi Coast, Capri, Sardinia and the Italian Riviera (or Liguria).

Sailing on a catamaran in Italy

Italy is obviously most known for its mouthwatering food, including more than pasta and pizza, as well as beautiful sunny weather and lots of history, but a catamaran in Italy allows you to discover this stunning Mediterranean country from a different perspective. Discover breathtaking beaches in Sicily and Sardinia, explore the stunning coastline in the Gulf of Naples, and stop by the Amalfi coast to take in the stunning cliff views.

The pros of renting a catamaran in Italy

A catamaran charter in Italy allows you to explore the land of pasta and pizza in a completely different way. Explore the stunning scenery and beautiful beaches in Sicily, Sardinia, or the Amalfi coast. As catamarans have a shallow draft, you will be able to sail closer to the shore and discover the beaches up close.

Enjoy the flexibility of sailing, but in comfort and style with a catamaran rental in Italy . Catamarans are generally quite spacious and offer enough space for everyone on board to enjoy a meal together on deck, to sleep in cabins that feel more like comfortable hotel rooms on water rather than small cabins on a boat. This comfort also includes the option of using the engine to drive instead of having to rely on the sail completely.

Rent a catamaran in Italy if you want to make the most of your vacation on the water. You will have plenty of space to stretch your legs and sunbathe on deck while sipping on a delicious homemade cocktail or snacking on some fresh fruits. Due to standing on two hulls, catamarans are more stable and allow for more space on board.

The cons of renting a catamaran in Italy

One of the downsides of a catamaran hire in Italy is the fact that they are bigger than other types of boats and therefore more difficult to navigate and operate in smaller spaces, including the marinas.

Charter a private luxury catamaran in Italy

A private luxury catamaran charter in Italy is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to splurge and is not restricted by any budget. A luxury catamaran in Italy comes with all the amenities you could dream of and a full crew is mostly included in the price.

How many people can go on a catamaran in Italy?

On average, a catamaran in Italy allows around 10 people to sleep on board the boat. This makes a catamaran in Italy perfect for a group of couples or a group of single friends.

When is the best time to sail on a catamaran in Italy?

Sailing season in Italy generally lasts from late spring until early autumn, but the sailing conditions can vary greatly between North and South, as well as the different gulfs and islands. The light winds on the Amalfi coast make for a pleasant and comfortable sailing experience on a catamaran . You don’t have to rush and the light winds carry you comfortably over the small waves.

If you want to sail around an Italian island on a catamaran you should rent a catamaran in Sardinia in late spring or summer. The winds are less strong, the sun is warming up the sea, and the turquoise waters are inviting you for a quick dip. If you prefer to ditch the crowds and don’t mind wind speeds picking up a little, a catamaran charter in Italy can also be great in September.

How much does it cost to rent a catamaran in Italy?

A catamaran rental in Italy doesn’t have to break the bank. It really depends on the region you want to explore in Italy and the time of year you want to visit. In general, an affordable catamaran charter in Italy is going to cost you around 3.000 EUR for a week in September. Of course, you can always spend more, but this is the bareboat charter price while on a budget. A more luxurious catamaran charter in Italy can cost you between 30.000 and 40.000 EUR per week. It all depends on your personal preferences and your budget. If you want to hire a skipper in addition to your catamaran bareboat charter, you will have to pay extra but don’t have to worry about navigating and operating the boat yourself.

What kind of boat licence do I need when renting a catamaran in Italy?

Anyone who wants to charter a catamaran in Italy should be in possession of a valid boat licence. If you obtained your boat licence anywhere in the EU, it will be valid in Italy. A bareboat catamaran rental in Italy also requires you to carry a VHF radio licence.

If you don’t have a valid boat licence or simply don’t want to operate the catamaran yourself, you can always hire a skipper in addition to your bareboat catamaran charter in Italy. However, skippers who obtained their skipper licences outside of Italy will not be covered by an Italian flagged boat.

The best routes for catamarans in Italy

Italy offers some of the most stunning sailing destinations in the world, and catamarans are the perfect vessels to explore its coastal beauty. Among the top regions for catamaran sailing in Italy are Sicily, Sardinia, and the Gulf of Naples. Each of these areas provides a unique and unforgettable sailing experience.

Sail around Sicily on a catamaran:

Sailing around Sicily allows you to immerse yourself in the captivating history and natural wonders of the region. Begin your journey in Palermo, the island's vibrant capital, and set sail to the enchanting Aeolian Islands. Discover the volcanic landscapes of Stromboli and Vulcano, relax on the beaches of Salina, and explore the charming villages of Lipari and Panarea. Sicily's crystal-clear waters, stunning coastlines, and warm hospitality make it an ideal catamaran sailing destination.

Sail around Sardinia on a catamaran:

The island of Sardinia is a true paradise for catamaran enthusiasts. Start your sailing adventure from the southern port of Cagliari and navigate along the southern coast. Explore the pristine beaches and hidden coves of Chia and Villasimius. Sail northward to the Costa Smeralda, famous for its luxurious resorts and turquoise waters. Take in the breathtaking beauty of La Maddalena Archipelago and enjoy the unspoiled nature of Sardinia's northern islands.

Sail around the Gulf of Naples on a catamaran:

The Gulf of Naples is a captivating blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. Depart from Naples and set sail towards the picturesque island of Ischia, known for its thermal springs and lush landscapes. Continue to the colorful island of Procida and experience its authentic Italian charm. Don't miss the chance to visit the legendary Isle of Capri, with its stunning cliffs, iconic Blue Grotto, and elegant atmosphere. Sailing along the Amalfi Coast, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of dramatic cliffs, charming towns, and the iconic Mount Vesuvius.

How much does it cost to charter a private yacht in Italy?

What is the best time to visit Italy?

The climate in Italy varies depending on the region, but overall the country has a Mediterranean climate, with warm, dry summers and mild, wet winters.

In the northern parts of Italy, the climate is cooler and more humid with summer temperatures in these regions averaging around 25 degrees Celsius and winter temperatures around 7 degrees. These regions are particularly great to visit during the spring and autumn months as the foliage changes drastically.

In contrast, in southern Italy and the islands, the climate is warmer and drier, with summer temperatures averaging around 25 to 30 degrees Celsius and winter temperatures around 15 degrees. The best time to visit these regions is during the summer to take full advantage of the gorgeous aquamarine seas. However, avoid July and August if you dislike large crowds as these are peak months for tourism.

Should I charter a private yacht with or without a skipper?

While making your booking, you may find that that there is an option to charter your private yacht with or without a skipper. It is possible to rent without a skipper, but there are many advantages to having one on board your journey. For example, a skipper will be comfortable sailing around the area, so they can safely and securely guide you through the waters. Moreover, their familiarity with the region means that they can tailor the journey to your liking, making sure to show you the best of Italy. Lastly, a skipper will allow you to fully relax and enjoy your excursion because they will handle all of the technical aspects involved with navigation such as sailing, docking and anchoring.

About Italy

Why is Italy a good sailing destination?

With a coastline that meanders through the heart of the Mediterranean, Italy stands as a sailor’s dream. Yachting.Rent believes that Italy’s allure isn’t just rooted in its geography but also in its rich tapestry of culture, history, and nature which makes it a prime sailing destination.

From the rugged cliffs of the Amalfi Coast to the serene waters surrounding Sardinia, Italy offers a diverse sailing landscape. Each region unfurls its distinct charm, ensuring that every journey feels like a new adventure. The Ligurian Sea enchants with places like Cinque Terre, a string of centuries-old seaside villages on the rugged Italian Riviera. Further south, the Tyrrhenian Sea is dotted with islands, such as Elba and Capri, which beckon sailors with their mystique. On the Adriatic side, destinations like Venice offer a unique maritime experience, navigating the city’s famed canals. With such varied coastlines and marine topographies, Italy is an endless playground for both novice and experienced sailors.

However, Italy’s appeal isn’t just its natural beauty. It’s the intertwining of this beauty with the nation’s rich cultural and gastronomical offerings. Anchoring in Sicilian ports can lead to a culinary journey tasting authentic Arancini or Cannoli. In Tuscany, sailors can venture inland to experience some of the world’s most renowned vineyards. Every port, every harbor in Italy tells a story – be it of ancient Roman civilizations, Renaissance art, or modern Italian lifestyle. This blend of sailing with immersive experiences is what Yachting.Rent champions, ensuring that when you set sail in Italy, it’s not just a trip on the water but a journey through the very soul of the Mediterranean.

What Choose

Sailing boat or Catamaran, what to sail in Italy

The azure waters of Italy beckon, offering an unparalleled maritime journey. But with Yachting.Rent, before setting sail on this Mediterranean masterpiece, comes an enticing choice: a classic sailing boat or a luxurious catamaran? Both vessels promise unique experiences tailored to the Italian seascape.

Sailing Boat: Embracing Italy’s Nautical Heritage Choosing a sailing boat is akin to stepping into Italy’s rich maritime legacy. These vessels, with their slender silhouettes and intimate decks, allow sailors to navigate the waters as the ancient mariners once did. From the tight-knit harbors of the Amalfi Coast to the shallow inlets of Puglia, sailing boats are versatile, making them perfect for close explorations. Feel the rhythmic pulse of the Mediterranean, hear the whisper of the waves, and embrace a deep connection to the sea and the stories it holds.

Catamaran: Sailing in Unparalleled Comfort Opting for a catamaran unveils Italy’s coastlines in lavish style. With their dual hulls, catamarans offer unmatched stability, making them ideal for families and groups or those prioritizing space and comfort. Envision wide decks for sunbathing, spacious cabins, and panoramic views of iconic landscapes like Cinque Terre or the cliffs of Capri. The catamaran’s design also allows for closer anchoring, enabling easy access to secluded beaches and crystal-clear snorkeling spots.

With Yachting.Rent, the choice between a sailing boat or catamaran is more than just a vessel preference; it’s about crafting your personalized Italian adventure. Our seasoned team is on hand to guide you, ensuring that whichever vessel you choose, it aligns seamlessly with your dreams and desires. Whether it’s a nostalgic journey echoing the tales of old or a modern exploration drenched in luxury, set sail in Italy with confidence, knowing Yachting.Rent is at the helm of your unforgettable voyage.

Sailing Italy

With extensive coastline, Italy bareboat charters have  something to offer even the most experienced sailors. From chic resorts  in Capri to gorgeous views of Sardinia, erupting volcanoes in the  Aeolian Islands, the rich history of Rome, sandy beaches of Sicily and  the charming slow-paced life on the Amalfi Coast, whichever region you  choose for your sailing vacation each will be a unique adventure.

Being a center of international tourism, Italy is visited by over 50  million people each year. Experiencing Italy on a sailing vacation is a  great way to enjoy this wonderful, sunny country and make lasting  memories. Many find that one trip isn't enough, and will return again  and again to relax and soak up all that Italy has to offer.

Italian Cuisine

Apart from the exciting history, fashion and friendly people,  Italy is a country that is world famous for its delicious cuisine. Once  you charter a boat in Italy, make this trip an unforgettable experience  by exploring culture and traditional lifestyle through local foods. You  may dine in small marinas, stock up with seafood, try fantastic fruits  and vegetables in local markets, or lunch in casual waterside pizzerias  while sailing in Salerno or Naples. Discover Italy's famous gelato  ice-cream in Rome, or sample world renowned Tuscan wines while sailing  in Follonica, Piombino or Livorno.

Sailing in Italy is the best possible way to explore this gorgeous  country, as you can reach the most beautiful spots while avoiding  crowded tourist destinations. As is typical for much of the  Mediterranean, Italy's climate is mostly subtropical, with warm dry  summers and wet winters. The months of May through October are optimal  for a bareboat charter in Italy. During these months you can expect  moderate winds from 10 to 20 knots while average temperatures will range  from 70 to 90 F (20 to 30 C). July and August are the peak of the  summer season, with temperatures reaching up to 90 F (30 C) and warm  seas that can rise to a comfortable 75 F (24 C). This is a great time  for sailors with moderate skills to experience and explore the region.  The winter months can also be a wonderful time for a sailing trip in  Italy, with mild temperatures and fewer crowds.

Sailing Areas

There are 5 major areas in Italy with the highest concentration of  sailing yachts and catamarans for charter. 12 knots offers yacht  rentals in Salerno, as well as a large fleet of charter yachts in  Tropea, Follonica, Skarlino and Naples.

Naples bareboat charter, Amalfi Coast

Sheltered short passages and light breezes make this area ideal  for a relaxed sailing vacation. When taking a yacht charter in Italy  you must consider sailing along the beautiful Amalfi Coast. Most Italy  and Amalfi yacht charters begin in Naples. This city has distinct energy  - chaotic but beautiful. While it may feel daunting at first sight,  Naples will soon charm you with its hospitality and colorful culture.  From the Naples yacht charter base in southern Italy, you have an easy  gateway to Capri and the Amalfi coast.

In less than a day's passage from Naples you may reach the Amalfi  coastline that stretches from Sorrento to Salerno, the most stunning and  incomparable coastline of the Mediterranean. Beautiful hillside towns  with colorful terrace houses clinging to steep cliffs represent  authentic Italian architecture.

Salerno is the biggest yacht charter base in Italy that can boast a  long history dating back to the 4th century. One of the most popular  historical sites of this sailing destination is the Arechi Castle. Built  in the 6th century, this castle offers the best views of the entire  town of Salerno.

From there you may head to Capri, one of the most prestigious sailing  destinations. A reservation is necessary for a berth in the marina  beforehand, as this is a popular and busy place during the summer  season.

Yacht charters in Procida can be an alternative to Naples. Located in  the Bay of Naples, this relatively undiscovered and untouched island  can be easily reached by ferry. Procida has open access to the Amalfi  Coast and Pontine Islands.

Sailing Scarlino

This is another must visit destination for an Italian yacht  charter. This tiny town has cobblestone streets and is framed by hills  of ancient, silvery olive groves. From the top of the hill, opens a  breathtaking view of the harbor and beautiful coastline. Numerous  waterside cafes offer great places to sit and watch the glamorous  yachting world. Further down the Italian coast, you may sail to Elba,  the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago, located only 6 miles from  Piombino. Elba has several coastal villages, all with the same  spectacular views of the seas. You may also like to stop and take a walk  along the streets of the island's  principal town – Portoferraio.

Boat rentals In Italy

A yacht charter in Italy requires a valid skipper's license.  The skipper must be at least 18 years of age (this is also a basic  requirement for obtaining a sailing license) and must carry their  license at all times during the vacation. A valid skipper's license will  allow you to sail along the coastline within 20 miles of the shore.

In order to charter a motor boat you will also need an official  permit allowing you to operate a power vessel with an engine over 40 hp.  Italian authorities recognize most of the International Certificates of  Pleasure Craft Operators.

Italians are very sensitive about the protection of their marine  reserves. You should keep in mind that it is forbidden to bring a yacht  close to the shore in protected areas (usually a minimum distance is 1  to 2 miles). In these areas it is also prohibited to fish, collect  seashells, sea plants, cruise on a boat with a working engine, anchor,  or practice any type of water sport. Italian protected areas are found  in Cinque Terre, the Tuscan Archipelago, Isole Tremiti, Miramar,  Maddalena Archipelago, Egadiysky Archipelago, the island of Ustica,  Porto Cesareo and Ventotene.

Italy is among the countries of the Schengen Agreement, and is a  member of EFTA. For citizens of the countries that are members of these  organizations, as well as for EU citizens, a valid passport is all that  is required to enter Italy. You are allowed to stay in the country for  up to 90 days.

On a Naples catamaran charter with Borrow a Boat you can explore much of Naples Bay and Southern Italy within an easy sail. Whatever you want from an Italy yacht charter, from its beautiful beaches and excellent food to its vibrant culture, a catamaran charter Naples is going to be an unforgettable experience.

The beautiful, ancient and vibrant city of Naples has everything someone on a European city break could want - excellent beaches, a beautiful old town and a wide array of shops, retaurants and bars to enjoy.

On the waterfront, with Naples’ eight marinas stretching along it, is the neighbourhood of Chiaia with a long promenade, excellent shopping and a vibrant nightlife. From here you may wish to head up to the Old Town of Naples, the largest UNESCO World Heritage site in Europe with its narrow alleys, beautiful plazas and old palaces, churches and cathedral.

This is just scratching the surface of what you will find in Napoli. What else can you discover on your catamaran charter Naples? Read on to find out more!

Naples Bay and Beyond

You can enjoy a sunset cruise or fishing charter boat charter on a Naples catamaran charter or go for a cabin charter on a private catamaran sailing charter. Let’s consider where you can go on Naples itineraries with a Borrow a Boast catamaran charter.

On your Southern Italy yacht charter you will want to explore the sights and sounds of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Heading south from Naples past the Legendary Mount Vesuvius above Pompeii you will soon reach the Sorrentine Peninsula. The holiday town of Sorrento with its excellent Marina Piccola should be a first stop to enjoy an old town that does well from entertaining British holidaymakers.

From Marina Piccola you can sail to the fashionable holiday island of Capri that is among the most popular holiday islands in Southern Italy. Marina Grande is the main marina on the island and offers access to the villages, restaurants and beaches that have made Capri one one of Italy’s most fashionable holiday destinations as far back as Roman times.

Rounding the Sorrentine Peninsula from Capri you will soon reach the Amalfi Coast, another location of holiday legend with its villages perched on the high steep coast. Similar to Cinque Terre on the Italian Riviera, the Amalfi Coast has been popular since the British discovered it in the 1800s and made it what it is today.

Heading northwest from Napoli you will soon hit the Phlegraean Islands of Procida and Ischia. These islands are quieter than Capri but like the Aeolian island of Vulcano to the south are famous for their warm volcanic mud baths and their wellness industry.

On a longer Naples yacht charter you can get as far as the Pontine Islands. The Pontine Islands are much wilder and quieter than even the Phlegraean Islands and Capri, and have been used as places of exile in Roman and Fascist times.

On a private catamaran sailing charter you could even get as far as the Italian Riviera on a sailing catamaran or motor yacht. Book your Italy yacht charter with Borrow a Boat today!

Crewed Catamaran Charters from Naples

You don’t need to worry about being an experienced sailor or even sailing the boat out of Naples Bay with Borrow a Boat! A Naples crewed catamaran charter (private yacht charter) on a motor yacht or sailing catamaran can mean you do as much or as little physically sailing the yacht as you like on your yacht charter holiday.

A skippered yacht charter or will mean that the skipper will be aboard with their own cabin to attend to all your needs. A crewed yacht rental (or gulet charter) will involve one or two crew on the boat trip who will cook, sail and make suggestions as to your best destinations on your sailing itinerary. With their local knowledge, even if you’re an experienced sailor you can enjoy a perfect yacht charter holiday.

One of the advantages of a crewed yacht charter sailing vacation is that you can go longer distances from the yacht charter base. A longer run to Sicily (to see the Aeolian Island of Stromboli or the Egadi Islands to the west) is possible too.

As to you? You can just enjoy the breezes and views on your luxury yacht charter , or if you fancy learning a bit about sailing, help the skipper or crew to get the boat from A-B.

A Napoli crewed yacht charter will cost a little more (typically €150 a day for a skipper and €100 per crew member) and it’s the done thing to thank them with a tip at the end of the week.

Bareboat Catamaran Charter From Naples

A bareboat charter holiday will mean that you can take the charter yacht out on your own. Generally for vessels up to 20 metres LOA on a sailing license such as an RYA Day Skipper or ASA 104 Bareboat certificate, you will have total responsibility for the yacht.

You will need to think about your sailing itinerary, victualling, possible secondary ports should a marina be full, as well as issues like weather and mooring fees.

On a bareboat catamaran charter you will be asked to pay for insurance in the form of a security deposit to the chartercompany on departure or through buying charter insurance before you leave the yacht charter base on your sailing trip.

Types of Catamarans Available For Rent Or Charter In Naples:

When searching a geographical area on Borrow A Boat you can filter by the below charter yacht types. There is also the option to further filter your searches by price, the number of guests, cabins or bathrooms, what year the catamaran was launched, the boat length and the boat manufacturer.

Sailing Charter Catamaran : Luxury catamarans are stable and spacious type of sailboat charter, with quick sailing performance, and and have been gaining in popularity in recent years. Better for larger groups, they have lots of room for water toys such as a paddleboard or even jet ski, and are big enough for a little privacy. A catamaran charter luxury yacht is easy and comfortable for novices not used to heeling and are loved by families due to their extra space when compared to a monohull sailing yacht. Typically far more luxurious than a monohull sailboat boat charter, the larger catamarans have en suite toilets and showers in the cabin as well as ample entertaining space in the saloon and on deck.

Motor Catamaran: These motor yacht charter catamarans are relatively new but have also been gaining in popularity as the two hulls keep the boat more stable when compared to a monohull. The wider beam of these motor boat also mean more deck space and as they don’t have sails or a mast, they have a lot more space on deck than a sailing catamaran rental or monohull. For a luxury catamaran charter, consider taking a crewed catamaran chartersailing vacation with an experienced skipper.

Catamaran Naples Itineraries

On your Naples crewed catamaran boat rental or bareboat charter sailing holiday you can explore Naples Bay and wider Southern Italy. Here we suggest a 7 day sailing trip and a 14 day yacht charter holiday on your charter yacht:

7 days - Capri and Amalfi Coast: Passing Mount Vesuvius to port, you will head for Sorrento as a first port of call. A night at Marina Grande on Capri will be next and then a few days exploring the Amalfi Coast as far east as Salerno. Sailing back via Capri, spend a final night on Ischia on the way back to your charter base.

14 days - Sicily and Southern Italy: Perhaps best on a private yacht charter catamaran, this longer sailing holiday takes you south across the Tyrrhenian Sea as far as the Egadi Islands off the western tip of Sicily. You will likely do a long leg to the Aeolian Island of Stromboli as a first leg and then cruise the northern coast of Sicily, hitting towns like Capo d’Orlando and Palermo as you enjoy the full gamut of an Italy yacht charter in all its shades. Return with a long leg from the Egadi islands back to Naples Bay.

Do You Need A Sailing License To Charter A Catamaran In Naples?

If you are on a skippered catamaran charter you do not need a license to sail out of Naples, you can just turn up at the marina and go.

You do need a sailing license if you are on a bareboat catamaran charter. You will need to check with the charter agent but here are some examples of typical sailing qualifications that will allow you to charter in most countries:

International Certificate of Competence: This is issued on request by your European sailing authority and you should automatically qualify with certain national sailing qualifications.

RYA Qualifications: If you have the following qualifications you will typically be able to take a bareboat charter out of Palma (but it is worth checking as per above), these include Day Skipper (sail or motor endorsement), Coastal Skipper or Yachtmaster.

American Sailing Association (ASA) : The ASA 104 Bareboat certificate is commonly accepted but also check as per above

US Sailing: The International Proficiency Certificate is widely accepted and The Bareboat Cruising Certificate is also accepted in many cases.

The main points to consider are what is your budget, have you got the necessary sailing experience and qualifications to manage the boat if it's not going to have a skipper, whom you are taking sailing, where exactly you wish to go and what will the weather be like on the proposed dates of your trip.

You will typically pay 50% up front on reserving the catamaran hire and the balance on arrival. You will either pay a security deposit with your credit card on departure or can get insurance covering damage in advance. In some cases (such as the recent Covid situation) charter companies may be more flexible but this depends on the individual charter companies themselves.

If you are at sea and in danger, call MAYDAY on VHF Ch16 or ring the coast guard on your phone if you have reception. If you have a mechanical fault and can make it to or are on a mooring you will be able to phone a help line number given by the boat charter company and they can typically send someone from the charter base

You should consider do you have the experience to handle the catamaran before you book and where do you want to go along with what the weather will be like. Bring warm weather and cool weather clothing if it looks like the weather can be cool as well as warm and remember at sea it can be cool in the evenings.

If you want to sail without a skipper then you will need relevant qualifications like RYA Day Skipper/International Certificate of Competence (ICC)/ASA 104 Bareboat certificate or the US Sailing Certificate. If you choose to have a skipper on board your catamaran you won't require licences.

We are confident that our prices are the most competitive and transparent in the market.

We won't charge any booking fees when you make a booking with us.

We have the highest number of verified and vetted boats available on the market.
