Sorrento is one of those beautiful cities dominated by the majestic Mount Vesuvius, in the province of Naples. The peninsula of the same name is mentioned in many stories involving sirens, hence its nickname "gulf of the sirens". If you want to sail on this legendary part of the Mediterranean, opt for a yacht charter in Sorrento.
In the open sea, off the cape dotted with olive groves and dominated by the tower of Montalto, the Li Galli archipelago was, in Greek mythology, the haunt of these half-woman, half-fish creatures. Those who wish to extend the excursion can go to the island of Capri, which is only a quarter of an hour from the port.
Perched on a promontory and surrounded by orange and lemon groves, the town is sure to charm you. The coast is characterized by steep cliffs dotted with lush vegetation, including genista, mimosa, cacti and reeds. As for the urban landscape, the picturesque hotels, period villas, flower-filled gardens and religious buildings, such as the baroque church of San Francesco, will make for souvenir photos worthy of the most beautiful postcards. The Correale di Terranova museum, housed in an 18th-century palace, is also worth a visit for its collections of mosaic inlay work.
