A full day on the water with your own captain and no fixed schedule.

A full-day private boat tour along the Amalfi Coast departing from Sorrento, with a captain who tailors the route to your interests, stopping at the Baths of Queen Giovanna, Li Galli islands, Positano and Nerano. The boat includes snorkeling gear, towels, all drinks and snacks, and lunch is optional at a waterfront restaurant in Nerano. You choose the pace—more time at one beach, a longer swim, or a detour the captain suggests—because the day is yours alone.

The Experience

The boat leaves Sorrento and heads straight to the Baths of Queen Giovanna, an ancient site where the ruins of a Roman villa still stand at the water's edge. From there, you cruise past Punta Campanella, the rocky point where the Sorrento coast meets the Amalfi, and the captain points out the lighthouse marking the boundary between the Bay of Naples and the Bay of Salerno. The route unfolds as a series of stops where you decide how long to stay: the Li Galli islands, where you jump in for snorkeling; a long beach stretch for another hour in the water; then Positano, the cliff town you photograph from the boat before going ashore to walk its narrow streets and shops for a couple of hours.

Swimming and snorkeling happen throughout the day—the captain brings you to clear water, hands you the gear, and you're in. Nerano, a working fishing village further along the coast, is where many travelers stop for lunch at a waterfront restaurant, though it's optional; you can eat on the boat or skip it entirely. The captain speaks English, Spanish or Italian, shares local history as you cruise, and adjusts the itinerary based on weather, your interests or how the day feels. Port fees, fuel, all soft drinks and beer, towels and snorkeling equipment are included; there are no hidden charges.

The full day runs seven to eight hours total, which includes travel time between stops. You can depart from Sorrento or from Capri if that suits your itinerary better. The boat is yours alone—no other passengers, no group schedule, no compromise on where the captain takes you or how long you stay.
