Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, this region boasts a wealth of seascapes, historic towns, and countryside dotted with vineyards, olive groves, and orchards.

The Cilentana Coast, located south of Salerno, is a paradise dotted with pristine beaches and charming villages overlooking the sea. The wilderness surrounding this region, along with landscapes steeped in history and local traditions, make it an irresistible destination for travelers. The Cilento Coast boasts numerous sites of great historical and naturalistic importance, included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, such as the Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park, the archaeological sites of Paestum and Velia, and the Certosa of Padula. As you sail along the coast, you will enjoy breathtaking views that combine crystal-clear waters, lush plains, and rolling hills dotted with centuries-old olive and chestnut trees. These magical settings combine perfectly with typical cuisine with a Mediterranean flavor, offering an unforgettable vacation experience that will remain in the hearts of anyone lucky enough to visit the region.
Boat vacation. Sardinia and the Emerald Coast
The Emerald Coast in northeastern Sardinia enchants with its crystal clear emerald-colored waters, creating a perfect setting for an unforgettable vacation. This exclusive location offers a unique combination of a pristine sea and places steeped in history, enriched by priceless nature. Sailing past enchanting coves, granite islands and white sandy beaches will allow you to enjoy breathtaking sunsets and sunrises, lulled by the sea breeze.
During your days, you can dive into scenery of rare beauty, snorkel in exclusive bays or simply relax on the deck of your boat. This will be accompanied by delicacies from the local cuisine, rich in history and tradition, which will delight your palate and further enrich the experience. The Emerald Coast promises an unparalleled journey in which every moment will be imbued with the beauty of nature and local culture.

Ischia, set in the Gulf of Naples, and Ventotene, a small gem in the Tyrrhenian Sea, offer an unforgettable experience for travelers seeking adventure and relaxation.
Departing from Ischia, one leaves behind its picturesque shores to cross the blue waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, encountering along the way other enchanting islands that dot the landscape. Along the way, there are breathtaking views of the coastline, surrounding islands and the vast open sea.
