Sailing in Italy, a destination not to ignore...Sailing in Italy,
a destination not to be underestimated
Italy is one of the most versatile and attractive
destinations in Europe. The culinary gourmet cuisine of
Italy is a paradise. Experience the world of "cucina
italiana '!
The landscapes and the people are fantastic. All four
major sailing areas are served by budget airlines.
This makes it a cheap option, but beware this is not
true in August. This is high season and prices can rise
a lot.
Good breezes, great food and a wide choice of
itineraries make Italy a perfect destination for a
sailing holiday.The four different sailing areas are: Tuscany, Bay of
Naples, Sardinia and Sicily. Each has its own character.
Sailing in Tuscany
is the least known by Northern European sailors but
offers a combination of sailing with a visit to the
inland wonders such as Pisa and San Gimignano. There are
appealing islands just offshore, Elba is one of them.
Both Sardinia and Corsica are also within reach and
invite you to explore and sail.
Sailing in the Bay of Naples
is quiet and the distances are modest. This is a trip
for those who want to combine sailing with perhaps a
visit to Naples and Pompeii, or a trip to Capri, or
visit the Amalfi coast. You can also do it all in just
over one week. Now that's what we call versatile.
Sardinia is one of
the fastest growing destinations, and customers who have
been there love it. Note in August is very busy! Then
Italians celebrate holiday and the prices are high.
However, this area is very unique and exclusive, so it's
definitely worth the price. NEW is the flotilla that

Sicily offers not
only its spectacular coastline, magnificent Greek ruins,
but also the volcanic Aeolian Islands. The season is the
same as that of Turkey or the Greek Dodecanese with a
summer that starts in mid May and continues until
mid-October.
