Charter Azimut in Capri: Models, Prices and Routes (2026)
Most Requested Azimut Models for Capri Charters
Azimut Yachts are renowned for their carbon-fiber construction and expansive flybridges, making them the preferred choice for navigating the rugged coastline of Capri. For 2026, the fleet available for charter ranges from agile sport cruisers to expansive motor yachts. Selecting the right model depends largely on your group size and whether you intend to stay overnight.
- Azimut Atlantis Series (45ft – 51ft): Ideal for day charters and small groups of up to 10. These open-style yachts feature retractable hardtops and large sunpads, perfect for sunbathing near the Faraglioni rocks.
- Azimut Flybridge Collection (50ft – 72ft): The most popular choice for Capri. Models like the Azimut 60 or 66 offer three to four cabins, accommodating 6 guests overnight and up to 12 for day trips. The elevated flybridge provides an Ischia-to-Capri panoramic view while cruising.
- Azimut S Collection (60ft – 77ft): Known for their sporty profile and speed. These yachts are perfect for those who want to zip between Capri and Positano in record time without sacrificing luxury.
- Azimut Grande (25m+): For ultra-premium experiences, the Grande series offers superyacht amenities, including a full-beam master suite and professional crew quarters, suitable for 8-10 guests on week-long itineraries.

Best 1-Day Routes Departing from Marina Grande
Most charters begin at Marina Grande, the island's primary hub. A standard 8-hour day charter on an Azimut allows you to circumnavigate the island and perhaps make a quick dash to the mainland.
- The Classic Capri Circle: Depart Marina Grande and head west toward the Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra). Continue past the Punta Carena Lighthouse to the southern coast. Anchor between the Faraglioni rocks for a swim and lunch at a seaside restaurant like La Fontelina, accessible only by boat.
- The Nerano Lunch Run: Cross the channel to the mainland to visit the bay of Nerano. This is a favorite for foodies, home to legendary restaurants serving Spaghetti alla Nerano. Spend the afternoon anchored in the quiet coves of Li Galli islands before returning to Capri at sunset.
- Positano Express: Thanks to the speed of the Azimut fleet, you can easily reach Positano. Cruise along the Amalfi Coast, take a tender to the shore for shopping, and return to Capri via the Green Grotto.
Extended Itineraries: 3 to 7 Days
A multi-day charter allows you to experience the Gulf of Naples and the Salerno coast without the rush of the crowds. Living aboard an Azimut provides a mobile luxury villa experience.
A popular 3-day "Long Weekend" itinerary involves spending Day 1 in Capri, Day 2 in Ischia (visiting the thermal springs and the Aragonese Castle), and Day 3 in Procida, the colorful 2022 Italian Capital of Culture. For a 7-day excursion, we recommend heading further south. After exploring the Amalfi Coast towns of Amalfi and Ravello, cruise toward the Cilento Coast. This area offers pristine waters and fewer yachts, providing a peaceful contrast to the bustling Capri social scene.
What is Included in Your Azimut Charter?
Understanding the "all-in" versus "plus expenses" structure is vital for a seamless experience. In Capri, daily charters often have different inclusions than weekly ones.
- Daily Charters: Usually include the professional skipper, VAT, and often some snacks and soft drinks. Fuel is frequently charged separately based on consumption, though some "all-inclusive" day packages exist for fixed routes.
- Weekly Charters: These are governed by MYBA terms. The base rate includes the yacht and crew. All other costs—fuel, food, beverages, berthing fees, and 22% VAT—are covered by the APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance), typically 30-35% of the charter fee.
- Logistics: Your captain handles 100% of the berthing logistics. Note that Marina Grande is one of the most expensive marinas in the world; booking your berth well in advance for 2026 is mandatory.
Planning for 2026: Season and Weather
The charter season in Capri runs from May through October. For the best experience on an Azimut, consider the following months:
- May and June: The island is lush and blooming. Temperatures are pleasant (22-26°C), and the water is refreshing. Sea conditions are generally calm.
- July and August: The peak of the Mediterranean summer. Expect vibrant nightlife and high temperatures (30°C+). This is the best time for those who enjoy the "see and be seen" atmosphere of the Piazzetta.
- September: Often considered the "connoisseur’s choice." The sea is at its warmest, the crowds begin to thin, and the light is perfect for photography.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pilot an Azimut yacht myself in Capri?
Most Azimut yachts available for charter in Capri are "crewed," meaning a professional skipper is required. Even for smaller models like the Atlantis 45, luxury providers prefer having a local captain who understands the complex currents and strict mooring regulations around the Blue Grotto and Faraglioni.
How much is the fuel for a day trip to Positano?
Fuel consumption depends on the specific Azimut model and cruising speed. A round trip from Capri to Positano on a 60ft Azimut Flybridge typically costs between €600 and €900, depending on the current market price of marine diesel in 2026.
Are Azimut yachts child-friendly?
Yes, Azimut yachts are excellent for families. Many models feature high bulwarks for safety, stabilizer systems (Seakeeper) to reduce rolling while at anchor, and hydraulic swim platforms that make it easy for children to get in and out of the water safely.
Is it possible to visit the Blue Grotto on an Azimut?
You can cruise your Azimut to the entrance of the Blue Grotto, but the yacht itself cannot enter. You must transfer to a small, local rowing boat to pass through the narrow cave opening. Your captain will coordinate this transfer with the local oarsmen upon arrival.
