Italian Riviera Yacht Charters
Across more than 150 km of breathtaking coastline, the Italian Riviera offers a refreshing Mediterranean charm that stands in stark contrast to the glitz and glamor of a French Riviera yacht charter. The coasts stretch from the last town in France to the historic port of Genoa, encompassing Portofino, Camogli, San Rocco, Cinque Terre and almost the entire coastline of Liguria.
The Italian Riviera is home to incredible architecture, a thriving arts scene, and many well-preserved ancient constructions. And if you prefer the simpler luxuries in life, nothing beats waking up on a bright, tranquil summer morning and heading into town for freshly baked bread and an espresso at a waterfront café.
Book a luxury yacht charter vacation in the Italian Riviera today and enjoy a perfect blend of old-world love, quality, and sophistication with modern-day pleasures.
The Best Italian Riviera Yachting Destinations
Genoa
The capital of the Italian Riviera is the historic port city of Genoa. With its chaotic labyrinth of narrow streets and age-worn colored buildings, the city offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the Italy of old.
Genoa’s success as a maritime Republic in the Middle Ages led to the creation of many medieval wonders that remain to this day. Visit the 12th century city gates, the grande bronze fountain in Piazza de Ferrari, and the majestic Cattedrale di San Lorenzo. Then continue your cultural journey with a tour of the city’s World Heritage Listed architecture, such as Le Strade Nuove and Palazzi dei Rolli, and take in Genoa’s long-established culture of art and music.
Cinque Terre
Translating to ‘The Five Lands’, Cinque Terre comprises five captivating pastel-colored villages along Italy’s north-western coast. These villages – Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore – also make up Italy’s smallest National Park.
Though the steep mountainsides emerging from the Mediterranean are a formidable spectacle, it means the only ways to travel the Cinque Terre are on foot or by boat. But this will ensure you have the time you need to truly marvel at the colorful villages that grew up and around the sheltered harbors carved into the coast.
Portofino
Hidden in a tiny creek, barely visible and almost inaccessible, is the ancient fishing village of Portofino, the world-renowned symbol of the Italian Riviera’s style and sophistication.
The brightly painted houses along the town square and harbor have earned Portofino the title of the world’s most photographed port. A short distance away from the town proper, you can witness even more incredible spectacles with a stroll through the Portofino Natural Park. And once you head back to the shore, dive underwater to explore red coral reefs and mysterious ancient shipwrecks.
Only a small handful of megayachts can fit in Portofino’s harbor at any one time. This relentless exclusivity makes the town a bewitching desire for yachters worldwide.

The Italian Riviera Yacht Charter FAQ with Worth Avenue Yachts
When is the best time to visit the Italian Riviera?
Peak season for a luxury yacht charter vacation to the Italian Riviera is from May to September, when temperatures are between 75-85oF.
If you’d prefer cooler temperatures, fewer crowds, and a better chance to get into the region’s most famous restaurants, you might prefer to charter a yacht in the Italian Riviera in April or October instead.
What is sailing like in the Italian Riviera?
During the summer months, the Italian Riviera offers warm temperatures, clear skies, and calm seas – perfect for sailing enthusiasts and new yachters. Winds pick up slightly during springtime, but for some this is more than worth it to enjoy milder weather.
How much are the yacht mooring fees in the Italian Riviera?
Yacht mooring fees in the Italian Riviera range from around €65 for a smaller yacht in low season to €210 for a larger yacht in peak season.
If you charter a catamaran in the Italian Riviera, expect to pay an additional 50% due to the ship’s greater width.
How long does it take to sail the Italian Riviera?
If you want your yacht charter vacation to be packed with activities every single day, you can probably experience the best of the Italian Riviera in just one week. But if you want more time to relax on white-sand beaches and indulge in a greater variety of Italian cuisine, history, and culture, consider booking for two weeks or longer.
