Naples Charter Area
This charter area is centred on the Gulf of Naples in the
Tyrrhenian Sea, part of the Mediterranean. The large bay is
dominated by the Mount Vesuvius, a dormant volcano famous for the
eruption of 79 AD that buried the Roman town of Pompeii
The
islands of Ischia and Procida [the Phlegraeans] lie to the W of the
Gulf of Naples together with the Pontine archipelago which is made
up of the islands of Gavi, Palmarola, Ponza, Santo Stefano,
Ventotene and Zannone
Famous the world over, the stunning
Amalfi Coast and the Isle of Capri are situated at the southern end
of the bay. Continue further south and you will find yourself on the
unspoilt Cilento coast with its numerous, charming fishing villages
If you are planning
a two week charter you might sail north and spend a day or two in
Rome. Or venture south and explore the Aeolian islands off the north
coast of Sicily

• Season •
The season runs from mid-April through to the end of October. The first three weeks of August can be considered peak season. There's a lot to be said for considering the "shoulder" season from mid-May to mid-June, and September through to mid-October. Why? It's very much cheaper. You will avoid the crush of high/peak season. The weather is still very pleasant and there is a better chance of wind and some great sailing
• Weather • Climate • Wind •
Average summer temperatures in the
Gulf of Naples range from 21C in May and October rising to 28C in
July and August. The gulf sees 8+ hours of sunshine per day
throughout the season. Generally rainfall is light, June and July
are the driest months. The wind blows predominantly from SW - NW.
There is the occasional possibility of a NE. Onshore breezes can be
expected close to the coast

• Onshore Don't Miss •
Naples, the largest city in southern Italy, has one of the world’s
largest historic centres and is famous for its UNESCO World Heritage
status
Pompeii and Ercolano are both Roman cities buried when
Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. Now fully excavated they are remarkably
well preserved. The sites are managed by the same company and it is
easy to visit both in one day using a combined ticket and the local
train which connects both
Pizza Margherita and Limoncello.
Probably not my favourite combination I'll admit
According to
popular tradition, in 1889, during a visit to Naples by Queen
Margherita of Savoy, wife of King Umberto I, chef Raffaele Esposito
and his wife created a pizza resembling the colours of the Italian
flag, red (tomato), white (mozzarella) and green (basil) and named
it after the queen
Limoncello is an intensely
lemon-flavored liqueur most famously associated with and produced in
Sorrento, the Amalfi coast and the island of Capri. It is made from lemon zest, water, alcohol, and sugar
• Marine Wildlife •
You can expect to see dolphins. Whenever I sail in the Med I'm
always bumping into them! Well not literally of course but the boat
is often surrounded by a pod jumping alongside and diving under the
bow
Other species that can be found in the Mediterranean Sea include; fin whales, sperm whales, grey sperm whales, pilot whales, Cuvier’s beaked whales, bottlenose dolphins, striped dolphins, common dolphins and loggerhead turtles
In the picture, clockwise from the top left; Common Dolphins, Mediterranean Monk Seal, Sperm Whale and last but not least a Loggerhead Turtle

The Amalfi Coast must be one of the most
picturesque in the whole of the Mediterranean. The entire coastline
