A GUIDE TO AN AMALFI
YACHT CHARTER

Amalfi, the main town of the Coast that bears its name, is a gem of the Sorrentine peninsula. It is a must-see spot during a holiday Amalfi yacht charter with its white-washed houses, ateliers selling hand-made goods, and mild climate throughout the year. Visit the Cathedral dating back to the 9th century and built in the Arab-Norman style, which bears traces of later improvements made in the Romanesque, Byzantine, Gothic, and Baroque eras. 

During your Amalfi yacht rental, go down to the famous Chiostro del Paradiso (Cloister of Paradise), dating to the 13th century: an old cemetery of Amalfi’s noble families boasting a palm grove and a portico of slim white columns.

Rione Vagliendola is one of Amalfi’s most picturesque spots, lined with pastry shops, boutiques, typical small shops, and old aristocratic homes adorned with turrets. Lungomare Cavalieri, the promenade, opens on a lovely view and is a must-see during an Amalfi yacht rental.

What to do on an Amalfi Yacht Rental

It’s already time to hit one of the nearby beaches on your Amalfi yacht rental, like Marina Grande,  Duoglio, sitting 1,6 km from the town’s centre and easily reached by your charter in the Amalfi Coast, or  Santa Croce, a small cove of clear, shallow waters.

Trekkers aboard an Amalfi yacht charter enjoy exploring the nearby Valle Delle Ferriere Reserve, a forest dotted with waterfalls and the remains of medieval ironworks, and Valle Dei Mulini, including an ancient mule track that winds through the Mediterranean vegetation.

Alternatively, spend the day off your Amalfi yacht charter exploring the town centre, filled with European boutiques and art galleries. The town centre is filled with glamorous bars, restaurants, and cafes – ideal spots to sample authentic Italian cuisine al fresco while watching the world go by. 

In the afternoon, cruise the surrounding Mediterranean landscape and discover hidden coves and beaches accessible only by yacht. As a marine protected area, the sapphire waters surrounding Amalfi are a superb spot for snorkelling or diving. 

Enjoy fine dining on your Amalfi yacht charter or at one of the many award-winning restaurants in and around Amalfi. 

Amalfi is a must-see destination while cruising the Amalfi Coast on a charter, which can continue with visits to the nearby Positano, Sorrento, Vietri, Maiori, and Minori for a holiday on this extraordinary stretch of charming coastline.
