Be part of sailing history at the 38th America’s Cup in Naples with the most authentic local experience on the water. Avoid the massive crowds on land and step on board with Captain Nico for an exclusive, front-row view of the legendary AC40 yachts flying across the Gulf of Naples. 

This is not a commercial tourist package; it is a deep dive into genuine Neapolitan maritime culture. With a strict limit of only 8 guests, a dedicated hostess, and a cook in the galley, you will experience the races through the eyes and stories of a true local captain who knows every current, secret, and flavor of this coast.

WHAT MAKES THIS EXPERIENCE UNIQUE:

• Captain Nico’s Storytelling: Throughout the day, Captain Nico will share the rich maritime heritage, natural landscapes, and unique coastal history of the gulf, giving you an insider's perspective you won't find anywhere else.

• Authentic Local Hospitality: From the moment you meet at the historic, working fishermen’s pier, you are treated like family. No cold catering here—every single dish and tasting is prepared fresh on board.

• Front-Row America's Cup Action: Positioned safely right on the racing boundaries, you will have a privileged view of the live regattas while enjoying a continuous open bar.

THE TASTING & RACING ITINERARY:

• Welcome at the Fishermen’s Pier: Start your morning immersed in real seafaring life. Enjoy hot Neapolitan coffee and artisanal pastries (sfogliatella and babà) as Captain Nico introduces the day and sets sail.

• Coastal Tour & Local Lore: A relaxed navigation where Captain Nico guides you through the natural wonders and history of the coastline.

• The Race Warm-Up: Drop anchor near the racecourse boundaries. Watch the teams prepare while sipping a homemade Limoncello Spritz paired with traditional savory taralli.

• LIVE AMERICA'S CUP RACING: The engines stop. All focus is on the water for the official races. The hostess remains at your service for an ongoing open bar with local wines and soft drinks.

• Post-Race Express Lunch: As the adrenaline settles, the kitchen comes alive. Enjoy a classic Caprese salad with ultra-fresh local buffalo mozzarella, followed by the legendary "Pasta alla Captain Nico," cooked fresh on deck and served hot straight from the stove.

• Sweet Finale: Conclude the adventure with a tasting of homemade pastiera and torta caprese, ice-cold artisanal limoncello, and a final Neapolitan espresso as we cruise back to the fishermen’s pier.
