Boat charter in Palermo
Sicily's northern coast is the shoreline a sailor hopes to see from the deck: steep limestone headlands, deep blue water, and a light that shifts through the day over the Tyrrhenian Sea. Palermo sits on the island's north shore, and from its harbour the land rises quickly into mountains that frame the city. It is a coast made for unhurried passages, long lunches at anchor, and the slow discovery of one bay after another, each one with its own character and its own view back toward the shore.

- The guide
A week under sail can begin at Marina Galizzi or Marina Villa Igiea, the two departure points on this itinerary. From either, the crew can choose sheltered bays where the water stays calm and swimming stops come often, or more open passages that ask more of the helm and the sails. Whichever course is set, the week returns to Palermo, where the trip ends in a city of busy markets, old streets, and harbour cafés, a fitting place to step ashore.
