Gaspare is really nice and helped us at the beginning of the rental to get used to the boat and how to drive it. 10/10

Very good experience, the boat is really easy to drive. 2 hours is enough for the experience.

The boat was amazing! There were 8 of us and hired it for a bachelorette party. Gerry the Captain was great, making us feel very comfortable and nothing was too big of an ask. He took great photos and videos which were later sent to me and the group. Would definitely do it again! We stopped at Positano to walk around and then at multiple different areas where we swam and had fun.

Hiring a Sailboat in Italy with Oceans Evasion

Italy is famous worldwide for having a diverse landscape, rich history, and delicious gastronomy. These are only just a few of the things that make the country special, but in reality, there are so many factors that make each of its regions unique. If you’d like to explore the wonderful waters of this Mediterranean country, then consider hiring a sailboat! You can experience the differences between the three surrounding seas: the Adriatic, the Tyrrhenian, and the Ligurian. Alternatively, you can also explore the wonderful lakes that it has to offer such as Lake Como or Lake Garda. This will ultimately give you the opportunity to see numerous cities as you glide through the Italian coasts or valleys.

How much does a sailboat hire cost in Italy?

There are many different factors that contribute to the pricing of a sailboat charter in Italy. Namely, this includes the size of the sailboat, the duration of the trip, the season, and whether or not it comes with a skipper. There are also many different locations in Italy for sailboat hires, so some locations are typically more popular and competitive in pricing than others.

A sailboat hire in Italy for around 10 people costs £2,212 in the low season and £4,867 in the high season.


What is the climate like in Italy?

Italy has diverse landscapes that characterise each region with different climates. For example, northern Italy can reach negative temperatures during the winter and only have mild summers of around 20 degrees Celsius. However, if you travel south to Sicily, you can find a climate with mild winters and very hot summers with 30 degrees Celsius during July and August.

One thing is for certain, the peak season for tourists in Italy is in August. Therefore, if you prefer to avoid crowded beaches and towns, a sailboat hire is perfect for you, as you can escape to the open sea or to secluded beaches at your leisure. Alternatively, you can also choose to go on your boating holiday in the months before or after August such as June or September, when there will definitely be fewer people.

Should you hire a sailboat with or without a skipper?

When you are searching for yachts on our website, you will find the option for booking with or without a skipper. While it is not essential, there are many advantages to having a professional skipper onboard with you. Firstly, you do not need a boating license if you contract a skipper because they will handle all of the sailing, docking, and anchoring of the sailboat. Moreover, they will be familiar with the Italian waters, so they can tailor your journey to show you more of what you would like to see, whether that be beaches, caves, or simply the open sea. All in all, a skipper will allow you to relax and have a luxurious experience on your sailboat hire.

Where should you charter your sailboat in Italy?

If you want to experience an Italian getaway, your options are truly limitless as the country has so many potential boating holiday destinations. If you prefer to navigate the Mediterranean, consider a sailboat hire in the Amalfi Coast, Sardinia, or Sicily. These locations are truly the gems of the Mediterranean, with crystalline waters that charm sailors from all over the world. You can also discover Italy using your senses as a tour guide. From olive groves to vineyards and pastries to coffees, scour the Italian landscape searching for your favourite regional dishes and flavours! Here are a few destinations and what you can expect to find: Sorrento on the Amalfi Coast is known for its limoncello, you won’t be able to find another tiramisu like the ones in Venice, and the pizza in Naples is world-class. Still not sure where to go? A sailboat hire gives you the freedom to explore these flavours as you please!

If you want to see what the lakes in Italy have to offer, this is also something that can be extremely beautiful during the Spring and Autumn! As the seasons change, whether the flowers begin to bloom or the trees shift into golden hues or oranges and reds, a sailboat hire in the Italian countryside is a beautiful experience. Therefore, if you don’t have time for that summer getaway, you can still have a magical boating holiday in the different seasons.

Where to visit nearby Italy

Italy is quite centrally located within the Mediterranean, so it is truly the perfect place for a sailboat hire. If you have the time for an extended holiday, consider navigating through nearby destinations! Of course, these examples will all differ in proximity depending on your starting point, so take this into consideration.

To begin, you can head west of Italy to the island of Corsica or the south of France. From here, you can experience a whole new world of architecture and gastronomy such as cheeses, wines, and seafood. If you head farther west, you can also find the Balearic Islands in Spain such as Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza. With tall cliffs, buzzing nightlife, and gorgeous beaches and cays, these islands are great to visit if you have the time.

In contrast, you can head east of Italy and into the Adriatic or Ionian seas. The waters are vibrant shades of cerulean blue as you head closer to countries like Croatia, Albania, or Greece. There are so many secluded and uninhabited islands along these waters that are waiting to be explored by you! Pack your bags, bring some snorkelling gear, and get on your sailboat hire to see what awaits you!
