Calabria, situated in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea, is a great yacht charter area. In addition to a typically Mediterranean climate you have the history and culture of Italy and fine dining opportunities abound. From any of our bases in Calabria; Reggio Di Calabria, Tropea, Vibo Valentia and Lipari, you can explore the the SW of Italy's mainland, the fascinating island of Sicily and the Aeolian islands. Sailors enjoying a more lengthy Calabria yacht charter can also visit Palermo, the capital of Sicily, and the Egadi Islands to the west of Sicily. A Calabria yacht charter is well within the reach of sailors who have basic skills in coastal navigation. The tidal range is just one to two feet and therefore tidal currents are not a concern outside of the straits of Messina. Regardless of the itinerary, Calabria offers a fine blend of magnificent sailing, snorkeling in crystal clear water, scenic hiking trails, upscale dining, boutique shopping, and intriguing sightseeing in picturesque towns with roots dating back to ancient Greece and Rome.
Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean being only slightly smaller the Sicily, the largest. It lies in the western Mediterranean off the western coast of the Italian peninsula and just to the south of the French island of Corsica, separated by the narrow Strait of Bonifacio. Mountains dominate much Sardinia's interior; the highest point is Monti del Gennargentu at 1,834 metres. The coast of Sardinia boasts some of the most wonderful beaches in the Mediterranean. Sardinia combines ancient harbours, modern marinas and attractive anchorages off beautiful beaches.
