What to expect from the VELA Cup procida
OnFriday, September 26 today, boats arriving from outside the area will have the whole day to reach the Marina di Procida, ready to welcome them by hosting them free of charge for two nights (until Sunday, September 28, subject to availability). Just this year, by the way, the Marina di Procida turns 20 years old: even during the VELA Cup there will be spaces and opportunities to celebrate this important anniversary together!
Saturday, Sept. 27 in the morning, after the briefing, the regatta/sailing “for everyone” will be staged : open to all types of boats, from dinghies to classics, from racers to cruising hulls – with no obligation for certificates or memberships – perfect both for those who want to challenge the stopwatch and for those who prefer to enjoy the magic of the Gulf of Naples more in relaxation.
In the afternoon, again in the Marina di Procida spaces, a dinner-aperitif will be set up for all crews, with beer and fried anchovies for those who participated in the morning regatta. The program then includes the big VELA Cup Procida prize-giving party (where almost everyone wins), followed by music until midnight!
Sunday, Sept. 28 there will be a breakfast for all crews to say goodbye one last time before departing (for those coming from outside the area) and sailing home.
The route
The VELA Cup Procida will have a dream course: 10 miles of spectacular sailing You start in front of the Palazzo D’Avalos, head south past Marina di Corricella and skirt the island’s skyline up to Punta Serra. Once you turn the buoy, you head back to the finish line, still in front of the D’Avalos Palace.
Procida in this season is an even more pleasant island to visit, as there is less “crush” than in the hot (and crowded) summer months. And for those who decide to stay longer, Monday, Sept. 29 is also the celebration of St. Michael, the island’s patron saint, with a procession and a very special atmosphere in the old town.
The island, positioned between two always breezy canals, offers authentic sailing and picture-postcard scenery: sandy beaches, colorful little houses and the alleys recounted by Elsa Morante and Italian cinema. Don’t miss the most “Mediterranean” stop of the season!
