About this tour
An eight-hour boat tour along Italy's Sorrentine Peninsula and Amalfi Coast, skippered by a lifelong sea enthusiast who shares local stories and knowledge throughout. You'll cruise dramatic cliffsides, visit the Galli Islands, and stop twice for swimming and snorkelling in crystalline waters. The boat carries beer, prosecco, soft drinks, and fresh sandwiches, with snorkelling gear provided—ideal for anyone wanting to experience this stretch of coast from the water rather than the roadside.
Highlights
- Sorrento and Amalfi coastal views from boat level
- Two dedicated swimming stops with snorkelling included
- Galli Islands exploration and close-up viewing
- Complimentary drinks and sandwich lunch aboard
- Small-group atmosphere with storytelling captain
What to expect
You'll board early morning and head out along the coast at a leisurely pace, passing pastel villages clinging to near-vertical cliffs. The skipper shares tales about fishing, local history, and the landscape as you motor past sea caves and rocky coves. Two stops give you time to jump in, mask up if you fancy it, and simply float in shallows so clear you'll see straight to the sandy bottom. The boat rocks gently—rarely uncomfortable, but noticeable on choppier days. Lunch arrives mid-trip: locally made sandwiches, cold drinks, and the chance to chat with other passengers in the shade of the canopy.
Good to know
Book well ahead in summer. Fuel and landing fees (€35 and upward per person) are separate from the quoted price. Check tide times beforehand—some swimming spots suit certain conditions better. Bring sunscreen, a rash guard, and a towel. The boat suits all fitness levels; infants sit on laps, prams can stow below.
