What routes are available for a boat holiday in Italy?
The map shows the starting point of the activity. In some cases, the location is approximate, not exact.
Frequent questions
  • What are the best destinations for a sailing holiday in Italy?
    The most popular itineraries are Sardinia, Sicily, the Amalfi Coast, the Aeolian Islands, the Tuscan Archipelago, and the Pontine Islands, with departures available throughout the season.
  • Do you need a boating license to go on a boating holiday in Italy?
    No, a sailing license is not required to participate in a skippered sailing holiday in Italy, nor is any sailing experience necessary.
    The professional skipper takes care of sailing the vessel, planning the itinerary, and managing the navigation based on weather and sea conditions, ensuring safety and peace of mind for all participants.

    Those who wish can still participate in life on board, learning the basics of sailing, helping with maneuvers, or simply enjoying the journey in complete relaxation. This formula makes sailing holidays accessible to everyone, from couples to families, even first-time solo travelers.
  • How much does a sailing holiday in Italy cost?
    The cost of a sailing holiday in Italy depends on several factors, including the chosen destination, the time of year, the length of the experience, and the type of vessel. During high season and in popular destinations such as Sardinia, the Amalfi Coast, or the Aeolian Islands, prices may be higher than during other periods or on lesser-known itineraries.

    You can choose from several travel options: cabin charter, ideal for those who want to book a single cabin and share the experience with other travelers, or the exclusive rental of an entire boat, perfect for families, groups of friends, or private events.

    In many cases, the fee includes use of the vessel and the presence of a skipper, while any additional costs, such as food, fuel, mooring fees, or final cleaning, may vary depending on the type of experience chosen.
  • How does cabin charter work in Italy?
    A cabin charter is a boating vacation option that allows you to book a private cabin or a place on board, sharing the vessel and some expenses with other travelers. The skipper takes care of the navigation and management of the boat, allowing guests to enjoy the experience in complete relaxation, even without any sailing experience.

    This solution is ideal for those traveling alone, as a couple, or with a small group of friends who want to experience a sailing holiday in Italy without having to organize a full crew or rent a boat exclusively. Besides making the experience more affordable, cabin charter offers the opportunity to meet new people, share authentic moments on board, and discover the sea from a different perspective.
  • Can I rent an entire boat for a vacation in Italy?
    Yes, in addition to shared boat holidays, it's possible to rent an entire vessel exclusively for a completely personalized experience.
    Chartering a private boat in Italy is the ideal solution for families, groups of friends, couples, or companies looking to plan a tailor-made vacation, allowing you to freely choose the destination, itinerary length, and sailing pace.

    You can opt for a skippered charter, entrusting yourself to an experienced professional, or, if you meet the necessary requirements, sail the vessel yourself. From Sardinia to Sicily, passing through the Amalfi Coast, the Aeolian Islands, and the Tuscan Archipelago, the customization options are numerous and allow you to explore the Italian sea with complete privacy and flexibility.
  • Can I speak to an expert to help me choose the best boating holiday for me?
    Yes, if you have any questions about your destination, the type of vessel, or the travel plan best suited to your needs, you can receive personalized support from an expert consultant.

    Whether you're planning your first sailing vacation or looking for a specific itinerary, an expert can help you compare options, advise you on the best time to go, and find the ideal solution based on your budget, experience level, and group preferences.

    Receiving a consultation before booking allows you to choose with greater confidence between shared boat holidays, exclusive rentals, skippered itineraries, and destinations throughout Italy. Contact a sailwiz expert

As Good as It Gets - It doesn't get any better than this! A wonderful trip with Giacomo, who is not only a very pleasant, humorous, fun-loving and experienced skipper, but also accompanied us on great island trips....
His well-organized tour is highly recommended all around.!!!

Beautiful cruise.
The wind, stronger than one would have wished for a sailing trip, and the weather, which did not spare a few drops of rain, were handled by the "commander" with realistic prudence, without ever dramatizing things beyond what was necessary, transforming contingencies into opportunities.

Honestly, I would give this ten stars if I could… Jo & Andrea are not only seasoned sailors offering a unique way to enjoy the Egadi islands, they are also wonderful human beings who make you feel like family. For anyone looking for the BEST way to see NW Sicily, don’t hesitate! Grazie ragazzi!

A fantastic experience. The sound of the wind piercing the silence while sailing, the sunrise, the sunset, and the magical island landscapes seen from the sea remain etched in the memory. All this topped off by the expertise and professionalism of Mario, a master of navigation and life. Enrico.
