About this tour
Cast a line from a classic wooden fishing boat off Sorrento's coast as the sun dips toward Capri. This 2.5-hour evening excursion pairs the genuine rhythms of local fishing with golden-hour views across the Tyrrhenian Sea. Your guide handles setup and technique coaching, leaving you free to watch the light change and feel the Mediterranean pulse beneath you. Whether you land something or simply drift in the glow, you'll taste how fishermen here actually spend their evenings.

What to expect
You'll be picked up and driven to the harbour where your skipper greets you aboard a time-worn Sorrentine boat designed for working fishermen, not sightseers. After a safety briefing and gear check, you motor out into calm evening water. Your guide demonstrates how to set lines and read the conditions—talk is spare, the focus practical. You might hook something; you might simply watch the sea turn silver and orange. Snorkelling equipment sits ready if the water calls you in. As dusk settles, you'll head back to shore with the day's catch (and stories) in hand.
Good to know
Bring sun protection and a light layer for when the breeze picks up after sunset. The boat rocks gently; unsuitable for those with serious heart or mobility concerns. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. Prams can be left at the harbour. Public buses serve the area if you're independent.
