Italy Yacht Charters | 7-Night Amalfi Coast Itinerary from Salerno (2026)

7-Night Amalfi Coast "Grand Circle" Itinerary from Salerno

Avoid the crowds of Naples and embark on a seamless journey through the heart of the Amalfi Coast, starting and ending in the modern luxury of Salerno's premier marinas.

Day 1: Embarkation in Salerno – The Gateway to the Coast

Arrive at Marina d’Arechi, one of the Mediterranean’s most prestigious and modern yachting hubs. After meeting your captain and crew, enjoy a welcome cocktail on the flybridge as you depart the harbor. Sail a short distance to a quiet anchorage near Vietri sul Mare, the "Capital of Ceramics," for a peaceful first dinner at sea with the lights of the coast twinkling in the distance.

Day 2: Amalfi & The Hidden Fiordos

Head west toward the historic town of Amalfi. On the way, your captain will steer you close to the Fiordo di Furore, a dramatic "crack" in the cliffs that hides a tiny fishing village and bridge.

• The Experience: Dock in Amalfi’s Porto Marina Coppola. Spend the afternoon wandering the sun-drenched piazzas or take a private car up to Ravello to visit the "Terrace of Infinity" at Villa Cimbrone.
• Gourmet Tip: Enjoy a delizia al limone (lemon sponge cake) at the historic Pasticceria Pansa.

Day 3: Positano & The Sirenuse Islands

Continue to the iconic "Vertical City" of Positano. Before heading into town, anchor at the Li Galli islands—a private archipelago steeped in Greek mythology as the home of the Sirens.

• The View: Nothing beats the sunset view of Positano’s pastel houses from the aft deck of your yacht.
• Evening: Tender into the beach and explore the chic boutiques of Via Pasitea, or have your crew arrange a table at the Michelin-starred La Sponda.

Day 4: Capri – Glamour & The Blue Grotto

Cross the shimmering waters to Capri. Sail around the island to witness the legendary Faraglioni rock stacks—a perfect spot for a swim and photo opportunity.

• Activity: Visit the Blue Grotto early in the morning before the day-trippers arrive. Later, take the funicular up to the Piazzetta for people-watching and world-class shopping.
• Nightlife: For those seeking the ultimate Capri experience, the legendary Anema e Core tavern is a must for live music and dancing.

Day 5: Ischia – The Emerald Island of Wellness

Cruise across the Bay of Naples to Ischia, famous for its volcanic thermal springs and lush gardens.

• The Highlight: Anchor beneath the towering Castello Aragonese, a medieval castle perched on a volcanic rock connected to the island by a stone bridge.
• Relaxation: Spend the afternoon at the Negombo Thermal Spa, soaking in mineral-rich pools carved directly into the seaside cliffs.

Day 6: Procida & The Colorful Bay of Naples

A short hop takes you to Procida, the smallest and most authentic island in the region. Unlike its glamorous neighbors, Procida feels like a step back in time.

• Must-See: The harbor of Corricella. Its vibrant, multi-colored houses were the backdrop for the film Il Postino.
• Onboard: This is the perfect day for a long, lazy lunch on deck featuring "Lingua di Procida" (local lemon cream pastries) and fresh-caught seafood.

Day 7: Sorrento & The Bay of Ieranto

Sail back toward the mainland to Sorrento, perched high on limestone cliffs overlooking Mount Vesuvius.

• Activity: Before docking, stop at the Baia di Ieranto, a protected marine reserve at the very tip of the peninsula. It offers some of the clearest snorkeling waters in Italy.
• Last Night: Spend your final evening in the bustling streets of Sorrento, shopping for handcrafted inlaid wood or sipping world-famous Sorrento Limoncello.

Day 8: Disembarkation in Salerno

Enjoy a final breakfast on the water as you cruise back along the dramatic coastline toward Salerno. Disembark at Marina d’Arechi with a private transfer waiting to take you to the airport or your next destination.
