    Great to see the area. Crystal clear water. Only issue is complexity of online train ticketing.

    Sorrento is so laid back and beautiful, our favourite stop so far, on our tour of Italy. We stayed at the Hotel Settimo Cielo which is affordable (comparatively) and with most amazing views and a swimming pool. Pizza at Franco’s was amazing. The tour to Capri was basic so we’d take the direct ferry next time, but definitely worth a day out.

    I recently rented a license-free boat from Salerno and everything was absolutely perfect! The boat was in excellent condition, easy to handle, and ideal for exploring the coast. The staff was professional, friendly, and gave us clear instructions. It was an unforgettable experience — highly recommend!

    Alfonso made our Amalfi Coast boat tour absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we left Salerno, he was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. He is an amazing captain and a truly knowledgeable guide, sharing the history of each village we passed and making the entire journey both fun and interesting. He took us to his favorite grottos, secret beaches, and beautiful swimming spots that we never would have found on our own. His boat was modern, spacious, spotless, and extremely comfortable—even handling the large swells from passing ferries with ease. What really made the experience special was how accommodating Alfonso was. He let us tailor the day exactly to our liking, decide how long to stay at each stop, and gave us fantastic recommendations for places to eat and visit along the way. You can tell he is a warm-hearted, family-oriented person who genuinely cares about giving his guests the best possible experience. Touring from Salerno to Positano with Alfonso was one of the highlights of our trip. We would absolutely do it again and highly recommend him to anyone visiting the Amalfi Coast.

    Alfonso was amazing!! He was lovely and very friendly. The whole day was perfect and he made it very special for my birthday. He was very flexible in stopping off at stops around amalfi and went the extra mile to make us happy. I couldn’t recommend Alfonso enough! Thank you so much again!

Sailboat rental in Italy with Click&Boat


Are you looking for an original idea for your holiday and thinking about renting a sailboat in Italy? With Click&Boat it is possible to rent a boat directly from the owner or contact some of the best Italian rental companies and set sail in complete safety.

Is it a family trip or a fun reunion with friends? In any case, it is always possible to choose a boat in one of the ports closest to your home or accommodation, or set off straight to the region you want to visit, and the boat you choose will be waiting for you there, equipped and ready to sail.


How much does it cost to rent a sailboat in Italy?


The cost of a sailboat rental usually varies according to the tourist season, high or low, the boat model, the year of construction, among other factors.

The price of a sailboat rental in Italy starts between £1000 and £1500 per week, or £175 per day, depending on the time of year, with the period between May and October offering the most expensive prices. It is worth noting that the values can increase with the addition of the services of a captain or crew on board.

To save money, call friends or family to split this bill and enjoy your nautical holiday in Italy without worries!

Once aboard the sailboat, your great adventure begins, one that will take you and your fellow travellers to discover some of the most beautiful routes in the Mediterranean.


Is it necessary to have a sailing qualification (license) to rent a sailboat?


Although Italian legislation on the subject is different from that of other European countries, you need to know that a sailing license is mandatory for the command of boats longer than 24 meters, sailboats and speedboats, as well as for recreational boats (boats and pleasure craft) shorter than 24 meters, but with the intention of sailing more than 6 miles from the coast.

For the control of pleasure craft above 24 metres, a Type B license is required, to be obtained after the Type A license which allows sailing above 6 miles, usually for those who steer craft between 10 and 24 metres.

In any case, to avoid any problems related to nautical qualification, and especially if you are a beginner sailor, when renting a boat at Click&Boat you can choose the option of renting a sailboat with or without skipper.

From the safe guidance of an experienced skipper, you will be able to sail with complete peace of mind and make the most of every moment of your holiday.

What about joining the captain from time to time and learning important notions that will come in handy on your next trip? This is another advantage of a skippered rental!

Sailing holidays at sea


Sailboat cruising is already almost a classic, and as such, never goes out of fashion. Sailing holidays in Italy are one of the most popular travel options today, especially for those who want to take a break from the stress of the city and let themselves be carried away by the spirit of adventure.

Where can you hire a sailboat to explore some of Italy's most beautiful routes?


Renting a sailboat in Genoa is a great idea!


With views of slate roofs glistening in the sun and a unique natural landscape, a boat trip is certainly the best option to discover the various coastal towns of Liguria.


Sailing holidays in the Aeolian Islands, a real surprise!


To give way to charm and romance, nothing better than a sunset on the Aeolian Islands, admiring the blue of its sea. Then enjoy beautiful sunny days, refreshing dips and all the comforts of a dream trip, which can start on the northern coast of Sicily and take you to the islands of Salina, Lipari or Vulcano in the blink of an eye.


Sailboat rental in Ponza, combine the useful to the more than pleasant!


What better way to explore the natural beauty of an island than sailing aboard a wonderful boat? Even better when it's an authentic sailboat, which in itself evokes strong emotions and an eternal sense of freedom.


Rent a sailboat on the beautiful Italian lakes.


Sometimes more appreciated by foreigners than Italians, the lakes of Italy are, in any case, a true pride of the country. Their natural landscapes invite calm and relaxation, interspersed with majestic mountains, noble villas and elegant gardens.

Let's imagine, for example, a weekend on Lake Garda, perhaps setting off from Lazise, Salò or Riva del Garda, a destination particularly appreciated by sailing and regatta lovers.

What about the option of spending your holiday on Lake Maggiore? If the landscapes of Stresa and Arona are not enough to surprise you, the splendid Borromeo Islands, true jewels of the region, will do it in a moment.

Another alternative and great sailing adventure we can't fail to mention is Lake Como, whose views of Bellagio, Varenna and Domaso are among the most photographed and iconic in Italy.
