Climbing South Italy’s Amalfi Coast feels like sampling a fine Tuscan wine — once you’ve had a taste, everything else feels like a step-down. Named after the historical town at its heart, Amalfi abounds with colorful hamlets, lavish villas, Michelin-star restaurants — and exquisite climbing. With a sporty selection of slabs, faces, overhangs, and deep water solos for all skill levels, it’s guaranteed fun under the Mediterranean sun. Amalfi’s shores are best climbed by sea. The sailing and climbing combo gives you unmatched flexibility, letting you access otherwise inaccessible routes, explore hundreds of hidden gems, and minimize the travel time from rock to rock. Plus, you get to fish your own food, chill in pristine seas, and sleep under the starry skies, lulled by the waves. Want to hear more about the Amalfi Coast and why it’s recently undergone a climbing Renaissance? Tune in to this live Q&A session hosted by climbing and sailing pioneer Lorenzo Pernigotti! In an hour-long conversation, you’ll get to ask Lorenzo anything you’d like to know about what it’s like to sail the Divina Costiera, scour for secret routes, and send the days away on one of the most scenic shorelines on the continent.

A sailboat offers unmatched flexibility, allowing you to access otherwise inaccessible routes, discover hundreds of hidden gems, and minimize the time spent traveling from rock to rock.  It’s the perfect way to dodge the crowds and streamline difficult approaches, with the added benefit of swimming in pristine seas and sleeping under the open skies.  If there’s anything you’d like to know about the climbing and sailing combo, tune in to our FREE Q&A SESSION. Talk to an expert guide and learn first-hand what it’s like to glide across the seas while scouring for secret routes, and why it pays to have a mobile home base on your crusher’s odyssey.

Sardinia as seen from the sea is all splendor. And for climbers, the remote paradise is a siren’s call. With nearly 6,000 sport routes and 1,000 multi-pitches, skipper and climber Lorenzo Pernigotti came up with the perfect idea—combine luxury sailing along the island’s coastline with top-of-the-line climbing in one unforgettable package. This week-long sports holiday kicks off with a cruise into the sunset at the Portisco Marina, and from then on it’s day after day packed with excitement and pleasure. Under the supervision of IFMGA guides acquainted with every hidden cove and world-class crag of Sardinia’s coastline, you’ll climb some of the best granite, basalt and dolomite in Europe. Then, after a day on the rocks, it’s time to kick back and enjoy the breathtaking nature around you. Cool off with a scuba dive, enjoy a cold drink with a fishing rod in hand, or soak up some sun on a sandy beach as the gentle bob of the Mediterranean murmurs in the background. This is a trip like no other. In this one-hour webinar, Lorenzo told us about his journey in search of the best rock climbing spots by the sea. He painted a picture of Sardinia’s sublime beauty and illustrated what a week with his crew looks like from their floating base camp.
