Carnevali 42 Fly

The Carnevali 42 Fly is presented as an elegant motor yacht designed for luxurious and comfortable sailing experiences. The interior often features rich finishes with comfortable leather sofas and a sophisticated atmosphere. Onboard amenities include air conditioning, a fully equipped galley, outside speakers, and an enchanting flybridge sundeck dedicated to relaxation. The yacht can comfortably accommodate up to 8 people for day trips and features 3 cabins with 2 bathrooms for ultimate privacy. With robust 1000hp engines, it allows for smooth cruising to navigate the hidden coves and sea caves of Puglia seamlessly.

Life Aboard the Carnevali 42 Fly

The defining feature of this Carnevali 42 Fly charter is the flybridge, an elevated sundeck that sits above the main deck, offering panoramic 360-degree views of the Adriatic coastline. It is a rare luxury on a yacht of this size, creating two distinct levels of outdoor living. Guests who want to soak up the sun stretch out on the flybridge cushions with the sea breeze in their hair, while others relax in the shaded cockpit below, glass of chilled Pugliese rosato in hand. This two-level layout means everyone on board finds their own perfect spot, whether you prefer open sky or sheltered comfort.

Your day begins at Cala Ponte Marina in Polignano a Mare, where the captain welcomes you aboard and the twin 1000hp engines rumble to life. The Carnevali 42 Fly glides out of the harbour and turns south along Puglia's dramatic karst coastline: towering white cliffs sculpted by millennia of wind and waves. Within minutes you are cruising past the iconic old town of Polignano, perched impossibly on the cliff edge, and slipping into the network of sea caves that riddle the shoreline. The captain knows every hidden cove along the route, and he anchors in crystal-clear water so shallow you can see the sandy bottom five metres below.

Back on board after a swim, the fully equipped galley comes into its own. A fresh lunch of local specialities like burrata with cherry tomatoes, grilled octopus, and crusty Altamura bread is prepared and served in the cockpit or up on the flybridge, depending on your mood. As the afternoon heat builds, the air conditioning below deck provides welcome relief, and the three comfortable cabins offer a quiet retreat for anyone who wants a nap before the return leg. The route continues toward Monopoli, passing secluded beaches and rocky inlets, before the Carnevali 42 Fly powers smoothly back to Cala Ponte as the late afternoon light turns golden over Polignano.

Why Choose the Carnevali 42 Fly

The flybridge advantage sets this flybridge yacht in Puglia apart from others in her class. A private upper deck is uncommon on a 42-foot motor yacht, and it effectively doubles the usable outdoor space, meaning more room per guest, more privacy, and more options for how you spend your day. The Carnevali shipyard, a respected name in Italian boat building, is known for quality finishing and excellent seakeeping, and it shows in the solid, confident way this yacht handles open water.

Families love the Carnevali 42 Fly for her three cabins and two bathrooms, which provide genuine comfort for overnight stays or a place to change and freshen up during a day charter. The generous deck space and high guardrails make her one of the safest choices for guests with children. With 1000hp under the hull, she reaches your chosen swimming spot quickly, maximising time on the water rather than in transit. Whether you are planning a family day along the coast, a romantic sunset cruise for two, a birthday celebration with friends, or a small group tour of Polignano's sea caves, this yacht adapts effortlessly. A professional captain is always on board, and an optional hostess can be added for a full-service yacht rental experience in Polignano a Mare.

Your Puglia Yacht Charter Base

Cala Ponte Marina is a modern, full-service marina with secure parking, fuel station, and all the facilities you need before stepping aboard. It sits at the foot of Polignano a Mare, one of Italy's most photographed towns, famous worldwide for the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series held each summer from its dramatic cliffs. The marina is just 35 minutes by car from Bari Karol Wojtyla Airport, making it one of the most accessible yacht charter bases in southern Italy. Free parking is available at the marina for the duration of your trip.

A Carnevali 42 Fly charter pairs perfectly with everything Puglia has to offer on land. Spend the morning exploring Alberobello's UNESCO trulli, visit a masseria for an olive oil tasting among centuries-old groves, or sit down to orecchiette and fresh seafood at a family-run trattoria in the old town. Then head to the marina and let the sea complete your Puglia experience.
