Guests seeking an Aeolian Islands yacht charter this summer may wish to take note of a rare opportunity aboard Fountaine Pajot power charter catamaran CORE. Following a charter ending in Salerno on 11 July and before her next commitment in Palermo on 22 July, charter catamaran CORE is available for a bespoke charter through one of the Mediterranean’s most captivating cruising regions.

While a variety of routing options remain possible, the yacht is ideally positioned for a one-way journey from the Amalfi Coast to Palermo via the Aeolian Islands, combining some of Southern Italy’s most iconic destinations with the volcanic beauty of a UNESCO World Heritage archipelago. CORE is a 2024-built Fountaine Pajot Power 67, accommodating up to eight guests in four cabins and supported by a professional crew of four.

A Rare July Opportunity in Southern Italy

Availability during July has become increasingly difficult to secure across the wider Mediterranean yacht charter market, particularly aboard newer yachts with established charter programs.

CORE’s current gap presents an unusual opportunity for guests seeking to experience Southern Italy during one of the season’s most desirable periods.

Rather than following a traditional round-trip itinerary, the yacht is ideally positioned for a one-way voyage that gradually transitions from the dramatic coastline of Campania to the volcanic landscapes of Sicily and the Aeolian Islands.

This itinerary style allows guests to maximize exploration while avoiding the need to retrace their route.

“Few itineraries combine glamour, natural beauty and island-hopping quite like the route from the Amalfi Coast to the Aeolian Islands. A yacht such as CORE allows guests to experience both in exceptional comfort.”

Why the Aeolian Islands Remain One of Italy’s Most Rewarding Yacht Destinations

While the Amalfi Coast often makes headlines, many experienced charter guests consider a Sicily yacht charter one of the most rewarding experiences available in Italy.

Located off Sicily’s northern coast, the archipelago offers a completely different atmosphere.

The islands combine volcanic landscapes, crystal-clear waters, charming villages, and a slower pace of life that feels increasingly rare during the Mediterranean summer.

Popular stops may include:

• Lipari
• Panarea
• Salina
• Vulcano
• Stromboli

Each island offers its own distinct personality, from the chic waterfront atmosphere of Panarea to the dramatic volcanic activity of Stromboli.

Guests seeking inspiration can also explore our dedicated Aeolian Islands yacht charter itinerary, highlighting some of the region’s most rewarding cruising experiences.

From the Amalfi Coast to Palermo

One of the most appealing aspects of CORE’s current positioning is the opportunity to combine multiple destinations within a single charter.

Guests may begin with an Amalfi Coast yacht charter, exploring destinations such as Capri, Positano, and Amalfi before continuing south towards the Aeolian Islands.

The journey can then continue towards Sicily, ultimately concluding in Palermo.

For those seeking a longer cruising experience, our Naples-to-Palermo yacht charter itinerary via the Amalfi Coast and the Aeolian Islands showcases one of the most spectacular routes in the Mediterranean.

The route combines glamorous coastal destinations, remote island anchorages, exceptional cuisine and a remarkable diversity of scenery.

Why CORE Is Perfect for Island-Hopping

As a power catamaran charter, CORE offers several advantages for guests exploring Southern Italy.

Built by Fountaine Pajot in 2024, the yacht combines generous living spaces with excellent stability and efficient cruising performance.

The yacht accommodates eight guests across four double cabins and benefits from a spacious flybridge, expansive exterior lounges, and a forward Jacuzzi overlooking the sea.

For itineraries involving multiple islands and frequent anchoring, the additional space offered by a power catamaran can significantly enhance the overall guest experience.

Guests enjoy:

• Exceptional stability at anchor
• Large outdoor living areas
• Spacious social zones
• Easy access to the water
• Comfortable cruising between destinations

Designed for Life on the Water

One of CORE’s standout features is its impressive collection of water toys.

The yacht carries:

• Two Seabob F9S
• Electric foil board
• Underwater scooters
• Paddleboards
• Water skis
• Towables
• Floating beach club platforms

Combined with the calm waters and secluded bays often found throughout the Aeolian Islands, these amenities create endless opportunities for guests to enjoy life on the water.

A Different Side of Italy

What makes the Aeolian Islands particularly special is their contrast with other Mediterranean destinations.

While the Amalfi Coast offers iconic scenery, luxury hotels and bustling waterfront towns, the Aeolian Islands provide a more relaxed and authentic atmosphere.

Guests can spend the morning exploring volcanic landscapes, enjoy lunch in a small island village and finish the day anchored beneath Stromboli as the volcano illuminates the night sky.

It is this diversity that continues to attract repeat visitors year after year.
