Explore the Enchanting Capri and Ischia Islands

Situated almost in the middle of the West Italian Coast near the Rome and Naples area, are the tiny islands of Capri and Ischia, along with the even smaller Procida. These beautiful and unique islands definitely deserve a visit. Since the time of the Roman Empire, the islands have been the preferred seaside getaway of fashionable Romans — including their mighty Emperors!

All three islands combine the best of what the Mediterranean has to offer: lovely and tranquil ambiance, pristine architecture, warm climate, exquisite views, a cosmopolitan character, and above all an unfaltering sense of  eternity. These are among the most posh places in the world, and have been for thousands of years!

There is a very specific process to follow when you apply for a berth in Cannes, no queue jumping allowed! Everybody has to follow the same rules when submitting a berth application – whether you’re famous or not, it’s all done in the same way. The berths at Cannes work on a first come, first serve basis; you need to plan ahead in order to get the best spot. In order to apply for the berth, you are required to chow the charter contract, company documentation, yacht license and documentation, and fill out an extensive application
