Motor Yachts

Dotted along the Amalfi coast, the towns of Positano, Sorrento, Ravello and Capri Island are located in close proximity to one another, making them easy to incorporate into a complete charter itinerary. Known for its steep cliffs and picture-perfect towns, the Amalfi Coast sits in the Campania region of Italy bordered by the Tyrrhenian sea. It is shouldered by the Bay of Naples to the north and the Salerno Gulf to the south. Also known as the Sorrentine Peninsula, the region covers around 50 kilometres of coast, best explored by a motor boat yacht charter.

Unlike other charter destinations, such as leeward islands in the Caribbean, the Amalfi coast has no hurricane season. So, you can plan an Amalfi coast yacht charter all year round.

Top Tips for Luxury Motor Yacht Charters on Amalfi Coast

• Summer months (April-October) are the high season for Amalfi coast yacht charters as guests can enjoy water sports at 25C to 32C.
• Luxury yachts give the charterers the freedom of water activities such as diving and snorkelling. Some yacht charters even have scuba diving equipment on board. You can scuba dive or snorkel at La Conca del Sogno and see octopuses and other sea creatures.
• Motor yacht charter price varies per week depending on the amenities and customizations. For instance, a motor yacht like Lady Amanda has a jet ski and a hot tub on board and will have a higher weekly price point.
• If you have a specific luxury yacht charter in your mind, ensure it is available all year round at the Amalfi coast. Some yachts, such as the Heerlijckheid, operate at the Amalfi during summer only.

Top Destination for Amalfi Coast yacht charter

The Blue Grotto – It is rightly regarded as one of the most spectacular sea caves in the Mediterranean and is a sight not to be missed. The best time to visit is between noon and 2 pm when the light entering the cave is at its strongest and the color of the water is most vibrant.

The Faraglioni Rocks – Set of three towering rock formations located off the coast of Capri, Italy. These majestic limestones rise from the sparkling waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea and are an iconic symbol of enduring romance.

The Sirenuses – Set adrift from the picture-perfect town of Positano, La Sirenuses are scattered in the Mediterranean sea like jewels. The archipelago gets its name from being the mythical (in Homer’s Odyssey) setting of sirens, who enticed sailors onto the rocks with their sweet songs.

Villa Lysis – Villa Lysis is noted for its distinctive mix of architectural styles, which borrow inspiration from Art Nouveau themes and embodies an overarching Neoclassical decadence. The grounds of the villa are lavish and peppered with delicate statuettes.
