Frequently Asked Questions
PLANNING YOUR CAPRI YACHT CHARTER
What is the best time of year for a luxury yacht charter in Capri?
The best time to charter a yacht in Capri is between May and September, when the island comes alive with warm sunshine, calm seas, and vibrant energy. High season runs from June through August, offering lively beach clubs, elegant seaside dining, and a glamorous social scene. For guests who prefer fewer crowds and a more tranquil atmosphere, May and September are ideal shoulder months — the weather is still stunning, but the island’s pace is more relaxed.
What is the weather like in Capri during the prime yacht charter season?
Capri enjoys a classic Mediterranean climate with long sunny days and warm evenings throughout the summer. Expect daytime temperatures ranging from 25°C to 32°C (77°F to 90°F) and sea temperatures between 22°C and 27°C — perfect for swimming, snorkelling, and watersports. Rainfall is rare during these months, and refreshing sea breezes keep the heat comfortable.
Which airports provide the most convenient access to Capri's premier yacht charter destinations?
The main gateway to Capri is Naples International Airport (NAP), about an hour’s drive to the marina in Naples where your yacht awaits. Private jet travellers can also use Salerno Costa d’Amalfi Airport for a more discreet arrival. From Naples, many guests opt for a swift helicopter transfer or a luxury tender directly to Capri’s Marina Grande, avoiding ferry crowds and starting the charter in style.
VAT & Charter Costs
What is the applicable VAT rate for a luxury yacht charter in Capri?
Italy imposes a standard VAT rate of 22% on yacht charters operating within its territorial waters. However, depending on your planned itinerary and how much time is spent in international waters, partial tax relief may apply. Your charter broker will guide you through the latest rules and ensure your Capri yacht charter itinerary is structured for maximum compliance and benefit.
What is the Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) and what does it cover?
The Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) is a sum paid in advance to cover charter expenses that are not included in the charter fee. These may include fuel for the yacht, tenders and water sports equipment, food and beverages, berthing dues and harbour charges, local taxes, divers’ fees, customs formalities, waste disposal, water and electricity taken from shore, ships’ agents’ fees (where applicable), personal laundry, communications and internet use, and any special equipment requested by the Charterer. The Captain will provide detailed accounts of expenditure, and any balance will be settled at the end of your Capri yacht charter.
What is the standard percentage for gratuities in yachting?
Gratuities are not included in the charter fee. It is customary, though always at the Charterer’s discretion, to leave a gratuity in recognition of excellent service. As a guideline, a gratuity in the region of 10 to 15 per cent of the contracted gross Charter Fee is considered appropriate.
Destinations & Experiences in Capri
What are the most exclusive yacht charter destinations in Capri?
Capri itself is the jewel of the Bay of Naples — known for its dramatic cliffs, turquoise grottos, and iconic sights like the Faraglioni rock formations. Beyond Capri, a charter can include the chic island of Ischia with its thermal spas, the quiet charm of Procida, and the breathtaking Amalfi Coast, with stops in Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. Hidden coves like Marina Piccola and the famous Blue Grotto are best explored by yacht for privacy and ease.
Which iconic attractions should I explore during my Capri yacht charter?
Highlights during a Capri yacht charter include sailing through the Faraglioni rocks, swimming beneath them, or sunbathing at Marina Piccola’s private beach clubs. Take the funicular up to Capri town for designer shopping, or wander the winding streets of Anacapri for a more authentic feel. Visit the Gardens of Augustus for panoramic views, or arrange a private tour of the Blue Grotto at quieter times. Onshore, Michelin-starred restaurants and cliffside aperitifs round out the experience.
What bespoke experiences and activities can I enjoy while sailing in Capri?
A Capri yacht charter is all about laid-back luxury. Spend the day anchored off secluded bays for swimming and paddleboarding, enjoy a private chef’s seafood lunch on deck, or explore hidden caves by tender. Guests often arrange private guided tours of ancient villas, wine tastings in nearby vineyards, or helicopter flights over the Amalfi Coast. Sundowners at La Fontelina Beach Club, spa treatments on board, and exclusive reservations at Capri’s most coveted restaurants ensure every day feels tailored to you.
Where are the best restaurants and culinary experiences along Capri?
Capri’s dining scene is legendary. Book a table at Da Paolino for dinner under a canopy of lemon trees, or savour elegant island classics at Aurora. La Fontelina Beach Club pairs fresh seafood with unbeatable Faraglioni views. For Michelin-starred excellence, head to L’Olivo at the Capri Palace Hotel or Il Riccio, perched above the Blue Grotto. On the Amalfi Coast, don’t miss La Sponda in Positano for romantic candlelit dinners overlooking the bay, or Don Alfonso 1890 in Sant’Agata for a world-class culinary experience.
