Join the Florette as she sails through southern Italy, departing from the bustling port city of Naples. Spend a few days island-hopping past Ischia, Capri and Procida, before making a longer crossing to the island of Sardinia.
The Gulf of Naples is a breathtaking coastal area, famous for its stunning views, vibrant culture and rich history. Surrounded by picturesque towns such as Sorrento and Positano, it offers fascinating archaeological sites, such as Pompeii. The bay’s crystal-clear waters invite you to explore, making it a must-see destination in Italy. It is well worth spending some time inland before boarding the Florettet.
The itinerary will depend entirely on the wind, as the Florette will make the most of the weather to sail to Sardinia. The plan is to spend a few days exploring the islands of Ischia, Procida and Capri before making the crossing to Sardinia and then a few more days exploring the beautiful coastline around Costa Smeralda.
The islands of Ischia and Procida have vibrant, bustling coastlines with a wonderfully relaxed island feel. Procida is much smaller and quieter than its neighbours, offering beautiful beaches, historical sites and delicious local cuisine. Ischia, the larger of the two islands, is famous for its volcanic thermal springs, lush landscapes and charming towns like Ischia Porto.
Probably best known for its affluence and luxury boutiques, the island of Capri is also known for its rugged coastline, azure waters and dramatic cliffs. Its lively atmosphere and Mediterranean cuisine make Capri the perfect place to anchor and explore.
Leaving behind the islands that adorn the horizon, the Florette sets sail for a longer voyage to the island of Sardinia. This open-water sailing trip offers everyone a great opportunity to hoist the sails together and relax into the rhythm of the sea. Our first stop is likely to be the coastal town of Costa Smeralda, where lively turquoise waters meet fine sandy beaches – perfect for some relaxation after a day on the water.
Sardinia boasts more than 2,000 kilometres of coastline, sandy beaches and a rugged mountainous interior. The island is dotted with thousands of mysterious Bronze Age stone ruins that look like beehives, making it worth exploring once you say goodbye to the Florette.
