Yacht charter
Last updated on 8 April 2025
Often seen as a commercial crossroads on the sea route linking Greece to the Balkans, Bari is also a very popular city with tourists. Facing the Adriatic, it enjoys a Mediterranean climatewith hot, dry summers, mild, wet winters, but above all, particularly enchanting sunny springs, which are conducive to sailboat charters in Italy.
Visiting this city in the Mezzogiorno, capital of the province of the same name, means above all admiring an exceptional heritage that brings together remarkable monuments, a fascinating culture and breathtaking natural sites. And to better contemplate the magnificent Apulian coast, a yacht charter in Bari remains an unmissable experience. The basin formed by the southern Adriatic also offers pleasant sailing conditions that invite cruisers to discover charming localities, several idyllic anchorages, as well as impressive landscapes of coves and inlets.
Coasting along the southeastern coast of Italy, between the Gargano coast in the north and the Gulf of Taranto in the south, is a succession of authentic places that are likely to enhance your sea cruise. Among the ports of call not to be missed are Vieste, Manfredonia, Peschici, the Tremiti Islands and Salento. But if you pass through the province of Lecce, stay a while in Torre Sant'Andrea, because the place is a marvel of nature, often awarded the European Blue Flag eco-label.
A little secret gem
Bari is certainly not one of Italy's most touristy cities, but that is precisely what makes it so charming. This peaceful, whitewashed town has many captivating attractions to offer its visitors. Your days in Bari will be spent in peace and quiet, with a unique tour of its most beautiful historical gems on the program, starting with the Basilica of San Nicola, whose reputation has long since spread beyond Italy's borders. Dominating the city center, this Catholic church is a major pilgrimage site. The cathedral of Saint Sabinus, standing in the old town, the Norman-Swabian castle, built in 1131, and the numerous museums will each in their own way tell you the captivating history of the city.
Gastronomy also has pride of place in Bari, which invites you to sample the famous cuisine of Puglia. Fresh vegetables drizzled with olive oil, such as Panzerotti, will fill your plates and will be accompanied by homemade wheat-based pasta. Finish off this little culinary journey by sipping a glass of wine from the province of Bari, such as Castel del Monte, usually accompanied by Taralli.
Bari, nature side
Nature also knows how to entertain vacationers who discover in Bari a landscape rich in contrasts, dominated by arid and rocky lands bordered by crevasses and sculpted cliffs falling sheer into the Adriatic. Excursions take you to the Murgia plateau and the Itria Valley, famous for its olive groves that break up the hostile red earth. It is in this valley that the famous town of Alberobello emerges, protected by UNESCO and known for its trulli.
By the sea, 40 km of beaches facing the Adriatic await bathers and yachtsmen, who will discover clean and very attractive sandy beaches such as Lido di Monopoli and Polignano a Mare.
