About this tour
Depart Sorrento by private boat for eight hours exploring the Amalfi Coast's most celebrated stretches. You'll navigate to Nerano's luminous waters, Positano's stacked pastel villages, and Amalfi's historic core, with multiple swimming and snorkelling stops en route. Skip the shore crowds entirely—your skipper handles all navigation whilst you float past sea cliffs, hidden grottoes, and coves unreachable by land. Lunch sourced from waterfront trattorias or eaten aboard.
Highlights
- Nerano's exceptionally clear swimming and snorkelling waters
- Positano's tiered pastel-coloured buildings from the sea
- Amalfi's cathedral and medieval town centre explored on foot
- Sea caves and secret coves accessible only by boat
- Professional English-speaking skipper and safety gear supplied
- Prosecco, beer, and soft drinks throughout the day
- Flexible meal options—onboard or local restaurant stops
What to expect
You'll board a comfortable vessel in Sorrento and head south along dramatic coastline. Expect 2–3 dedicated swimming breaks in sheltered spots where visibility runs deep and snorkelling gear lets you survey marine life. The skipper steers past towering granite walls and into narrow cave entrances that boat tours alone can reach. Mid-afternoon, you'll anchor near Positano or Amalfi for lunch ashore (your choice) and time to wander narrow streets. The return journey takes the sunset light, so bring a camera. Seas are generally calm, though the boat does move; anyone prone to seasickness should consider medication beforehand.
