Charter & Rent a Bali 4.6 in Capri: Prices, Routes & 2026 Guide
Bali 4.6 Technical Specifications and Layout
The Bali 4.6 is renowned for its "Open Space" concept, which eliminates the traditional bulkhead between the cockpit and the saloon. This creates a single-level living area that is perfect for the warm climate of the Tyrrhenian Sea. When you choose this model for your Capri holiday, you are stepping onto a vessel designed for socializing and relaxation.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Overall Length (LOA) | 14.28 meters (approx. 47 feet) |
| Beam | 7.66 meters |
| Draft | 1.22 meters |
| Cabins | 4 to 5 double cabins + 1 or 2 crew cabins |
| Berths | 8 to 12 guests |
| Water Capacity | 800 Liters |
| Fuel Capacity | 800 Liters |
The Bali 4.6 features the signature rigid forward cockpit instead of a trampoline, providing a massive sunbathing area and a second lounge. The flybridge is equally impressive, offering panoramic views of the Faraglioni rocks while the skipper navigates the azure waters.
Why the Bali 4.6 is Ideal for the Capri Coastline
Capri’s coastline is characterized by dramatic limestone cliffs and hidden sea caves. The Bali 4.6 is particularly well-suited for this environment for several reasons. Firstly, its shallow draft of 1.22 meters allows you to anchor closer to the shore in spots like Marina Piccola or near the Green Grotto (Grotta Verde) compared to deep-keel monohulls.
Furthermore, the Mediterranean sea state around the Sorrento Peninsula can occasionally see a light afternoon "Maestrale" breeze. The stability of a catamaran ensures that even when anchored in slightly choppy waters, the boat remains level, minimizing motion sickness for guests. The "tilt-and-turn" rear door allows for maximum ventilation, ensuring the interior remains cool even during the peak of the Italian summer.
Chartering Options and 2026 Pricing in Capri
When considering **chartering a Bali 4.6 in Capri**, it is important to understand the different service levels available. You can opt for a bareboat charter if you possess a valid international sailing license (ICC or equivalent), or a skippered/crewed charter for a more relaxed experience.
| Season | Weekly Price Range (Estimate) | Daily Price Range (Estimate) |
|---|---|---|
| Low (May/Oct) | €6,500 - €8,500 | €1,200 - €1,600 |
| Mid (June/Sept) | €9,000 - €12,500 | €1,800 - €2,200 |
| High (July/Aug) | €13,000 - €17,500 | €2,500 - €3,500 |
Prices vary based on the age of the specific hull and the level of equipment (e.g., generator, air conditioning, watermaker). Bareboat prices typically exclude fuel and port fees, while crewed charters often operate under an APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) system to cover food, drinks, and fuel.
Recommended Itineraries for your Bali 4.6
The versatility of the Bali 4.6 allows for both short excursions and extensive voyages. Starting from Marina Grande in Capri, you have the heart of the Mediterranean at your bow.
One-Day Capri Navigation
A typical day involves a full circumnavigation of the island. Start by heading west toward the Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra) early in the morning to beat the crowds. Proceed to the Punta Carena Lighthouse for a swim in deep, clear water. Spend the afternoon anchored at Marina Piccola with a view of the Faraglioni, utilizing the Bali’s large aft platform for easy access to the water for snorkeling.
7-Day Amalfi Coast & Gulf of Naples Loop
- Day 1: Departure from Capri, overnight at anchor in Marina Piccola.
- Day 2: Sail to Positano. Explore the vertical city and anchor near Li Galli islands.
- Day 3: Amalfi and Minori. Visit the Cathedral and enjoy local pastries.
- Day 4: Crossing to Salerno or Cetara for an authentic fishing village vibe.
- Day 5: Ischia. Visit the Castello Aragonese and the thermal spas.
- Day 6: Procida. Anchor in front of the colorful Corricella harbor.
- Day 7: Return to Capri for a final sunset at the Punta Campanella.
Logistics: Marinas and Mooring in Capri
Marina Grande is the primary port for those **renting a Bali 4.6 in Capri**. It is one of the most exclusive marinas in the world, and during the 2026 season, booking a berth well in advance is mandatory. Mooring fees here are premium, often exceeding €300-€500 per night for a catamaran of this beam during high season.
Many charterers prefer to spend nights "al gavitello" (at a buoy) or at anchor in Marina Piccola to enjoy the stars and the sound of the sea, which also significantly reduces the total cost of the trip. When visiting neighboring areas, the marinas in Sorrento or Castellammare di Stabia offer more economical alternatives with easy ferry access back to Capri.
What is Included in your Charter?
It is vital to distinguish between the base price and the total cost. Most Bali 4.6 listings on our boats page will specify the "Charter Pack."
- Mandatory Extras: Usually includes end cleaning, transit log, bed linen, and towels.
- Excluded Costs: Fuel (the Bali 4.6 is fuel-efficient but consumption depends on engine use), galley (food/drink), and mooring fees outside the base port.
- Skipper/Crew: If you are not sailing bareboat, the skipper fee is usually extra (€1,400 - €1,800 per week plus food).
- VAT: Italian VAT is typically included in the quoted price but should always be verified.
Best Time to Rent a Bali 4.6 in Capri
The sailing season in the Gulf of Naples runs from May to October. For those looking for the best balance of weather and availability, June and September are ideal. During these months, the sea temperature is pleasant, and the crowds at the main attractions are manageable. July and August offer the most consistent sunshine but require early booking for both the vessel and any desired restaurant reservations at beach clubs like La Fontelina.
