Italian sailing race season 2026

Entities: Imperia · Marina Militare · Porto Maurizio Yacht Club · Toti Stabile · Coppa Byron

Overview

In early August 2026, Italy hosted the 34th Palio dei Bagni in Forte dei Marmi, where the Bagno La Perla team won, and the 43rd Coppa Byron swimming crossing between Portovenere and Lerici celebrated local maritime tradition.

Following these summer coastal events, the sailing calendar moved to September with the third Regate delle Isole scheduled in Imperia from 10–12 September, featuring a mixed fleet of modern racers and classic yachts. At the same time, the Trapanese section of the Italian Naval League prepared the 40‑foot yacht Querida for the offshore Palermo‑Montecarlo regatta, a 500‑mile race linking Sicily and Monaco and drawing crews from across Europe.

Together, these events illustrate the continuation and diversification of Italy’s 2026 sailing season, ranging from historic beach races to classic yacht regattas and long‑distance offshore competitions.
