What to expect
Your skipper will collect you from your hotel (Sorrento) or meet you at the port (Positano) at your chosen time. The boat departs at a relaxed pace, hugging the coastline as dramatic limestone cliffs rise above you. You'll anchor at quiet swimming spots—bring your own snorkel gear or rent it onboard—then cruise past colourful fishing villages clinging to the rocks. A leisurely lunch of local fare arrives with wine or beer. The afternoon mixes further exploration with downtime: wander ashore, read, or simply drift. Return journey allows sunset views before evening drop-off.
