Sun, Salt and Stillness in the Bay of Naples with The Bell Movement

Naples greets you with faded grandeur, strong coffee and plenty of charm. Step aboard in the late afternoon and sail across the bay to Procida, where the fishing harbour of Marina Corricella tumbles down to the water in pink, yellow and blue. Once the day boats have gone, Erinn opens the week with a welcome circle on deck and asks each of you to choose one word for the week: a quality you want more of. Then a shared feast of Campanian flavours, with the first few bites taken slowly and in silence.

Breathwork on deck with Vesuvius on the horizon, then a morning swim before you sail south to Capri. Swim beneath the Faraglioni, the famous sea stacks off the south coast, before settling in off Marina Piccola for the night. Erinn's invitation for the day: notice three moments of beauty, however small, and bring them to dinner. In the evening, head up to the Piazzetta for an aperitivo and some of the best people-watching in Italy.

Cross to Ischia, the biggest island in the bay, and anchor beneath the Castello Aragonese, a fortress on its own rock joined to the island by a stone bridge. Spend the afternoon in one of the island's thermal gardens*, where Erinn guides a water meditation in the warm spring pools, or wander up through the castle* and the lanes ofIschia Ponte. A slow, restorative stretch on deck before dinner, with the castle lit up across the water.

Sail west out of the bay into open water, with phones in a basket and the morning held in quiet until lunch.Ventotene is a tiny island with almost no cars, a protected marine area and some of the best snorkelling of the week. Explore the Roman villa at Punta Eolo and walk the cliffs at Parata Grande. After dinner, with barely alight around you, lie back on deck for a night sky meditation with Erinn.

A last swim off Ventotene, then sail back into the bay to see Ischia's other side. Take a taxi* to Sant'Angelo, a car-free fishing village with good seafood and an easy evening stroll, or join Erinn at the white church of the Soccorso in Forio, where you'll share what you're grateful for as the sun goes down. Back on board for dinner.

Spend the morning on a sun bed at Giardino Eden beach club*, with a swim and a long lunch, then a sound journey on deck as you sail back across the bay. Before your final evening ashore, Erinn closes the week with a circle and each of you writes a postcard to yourself, posted from Naples to land on your doormat a few weeks after you're home. Then wander the old town and toast the week in the city where pizza was born.

A final breakfast on board, a short meditation and farewells over coffee, then step ashore in the morning with your word for the week to take home.
