DAY 1: SORRENTO
Boarding and accommodation in the cabin with a welcome cocktail. Departure for Sorrento, which is about an hour away. Dinner and evening stroll in the characteristic alleys of Sorrento.
DAY 2: BAIA / ISCHIA
Departure early in the direction of the Bay where one of the most exciting dives of the cruise will take place: the underwater archaeological park of Baia.
You will live the exciting experience of swimming through an ancient Roman city with its statues, its mosaics and the remains of the ancient port structures.
In the afternoon you'll be free to relax in the shade of the castle of Baia. We will return on board in the late afternoon to reach the bay of S. Angelo in Ischia before dusk. Dinner and evening walk in the charming village of the island.
DAY 3: ISCHIA
Half a day dedicated to relaxation, in the natural pools of the bay of Sorgeto.
In the afternoon we will continue towards the port of Forio, another town on the island.
Dinner on the boat and walk through the town centre up to the Soccorso church, where a breathtaking view is waiting for you.
DAY 4: ISCHIA
Today is the day of the second dive of the “The sea all around”: Secca delle Formiche at Ischia. It is an easily identifiable area, with almost outcropping rocks, marked by the presence of a lighthouse that indicates to the boats the series of underwater rocks just a few meters from the surface.
The Secca delle Formiche is made up of a large central rocky body supported by isolated rocks that create a variety of truly spectacular passages, ravines and dens.
The immersion path winds along with a series of canyons, which often alternate with stone arches, suspended like bridges over sandy-bottomed paths on which carpets of Posidonia rest, creating suggestive plays of light.
Return to the boat, have dinner and relax. For those who are not yet tired, stroll through the city streets.
DAY 5: VENTOTENE
Navigate to Ventotene and arrive around lunchtime. Stop in Cala Nave for lunch and relaxation. Mooring in the ancient Roman port that was entirely carved into the rock by the ancient Romans more than 2000 years ago.
Dinner and walk to the square from which you can admire a privileged view of the islet of S. Stefano.
DAY 6: VENTOTENE / PROCIDA
Day dedicated to the underwater exploration of Ventotene. Direction Punta dell'Arco, a vast area to consult at least three sites of underwater interest. The landscape, which is defined as “lunar”, is characterized by arid canyons and regular craters, confirmation of the volcanic origin of the island at this point. The lava channels will be a guided tour for divers through expanses of Posidonia, sponges, anemones and Anthias.
The area, of very recent re-population, is a site due to the presence of a huge find of anchors.
Once back on the surface, lunch and relax before sailing to Procida. Mooring in the famous bay of Corricella and dinner in one of the restaurants right next to the port.
Once on the surface, we will have lunch and relax before embarking on our navigation towards the bay of Baia. Mooring and dinner in one of the restaurants just outside the port.
DAY 7: PROCIDA / CASTELLAMMARE DI STABIA
Breakfast with a speciality of the island: the tongues of Procida (don't miss the one with lemon cream!). Visit the characteristic Borgo di Terra and arrive at the cathedral of S. Michele from which you can admire a breathtaking view of the gulf.
In the afternoon we will sail across the Gulf of Naples towards Marina di Stabia and have dinner on the seafront of Castellammare.
