Accepted Answer

A Bay of Naples sailing vacation on Italy’s Tyrrhenian Sea is a cruise through a Mediterranean paradise.

Land and sea breezes develop daily. In late afternoon, for example, more southerly winds can be expected. Summer temperatures range between 77°F and 90°F, similar to Sardinia and Sicily.
