How long is a yacht charter season?

Yachting has two main seasons: summer (May to October) in the Mediterranean and winter (November to April) in the Caribbean, peaking at Christmas and New Year. Booking in the shoulder seasons offers crowd avoidance, flexible rates, and a wider selection.

Yachts for charter in the Amalfi Coast

A cliffside town with lush greenery and buildings overlooks a vibrant blue sea dotted with boats and a small harbor.

Authentically Italian

Yet Sorrento is so timeless that its Marina Grande harbour prohibits modern boats. Crew will unpack your kayak, or row you ashore instead. The most up-to-date item at Bagni della Regina Giovanna - an awesome natural swimming pool best reached by SUP - is a transistor radio relying soccer scores. In Sorrento, authenticity is a stroll away.

Vintage Luxury

Nothing shouts Italy like a vintage Fiat 500. From Sorrento your Y.CO Charter Specialist can arrange an Amalfi Coast tour using these 499cc cars, known in Italy as a Topolino - 'little mouse'. Only a Fiat 500 can shimmy down beach tracks and into portside parking spots. To see Positano and Ravello, they are almost as stylish as your Y.CO yacht.

The vibrant coastal town of Sorrento, Italy, cascades down cliffs to meet the azure waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea under a bright blue sky.

Your Guide to Sorrento

A Living Canvas, Ablaze With Colour

Lemons and libertines gave Sorrento the riches you’ll see on your Sorrento yacht charter. Humble cafés are decorated with 15th-century frescoes. The Basilica di Sant'Antonino is like the Sistine Chapel - in miniature. The Villa Correale Museum is sited in a citrus orchard. Its collection of Sèvres ceramics and Italian landscapes sparkle like a petite Louvre.
