You step onto the low-slung wooden boat at Sorrento’s marina and the sea takes the lead — waves rock the hull and the coastline unfolds like a series of terraces falling into the Mediterranean. The captain, a seasoned local who started life as a fisherman, points the bow toward Li Galli; the islands, cliffs and villages slide past as the boat hums along.

You step onto the low-slung wooden boat at Sorrento’s marina and the sea takes the lead — waves rock the hull and the coastline unfolds like a series of terraces falling into the Mediterranean. The captain, a seasoned local who started life as a fisherman, points the bow toward Li Galli; the islands, cliffs and villages slide past as the boat hums along.
This stretch of the Tyrrhenian has coastal limestone carved by sea and time, worn into coves, grottos and the vertical orchards that feed lemons down to tiny terraces. Amalfi was once a maritime republic; its Duomo and paper-making tradition reflect centuries of trade, while Positano grew from a working fishing village into the steep, colorful town seen from the water.
On the itinerary: a swim in crystalline bays with provided snorkel gear, a relaxed 90-minute stop in Amalfi to stroll the piazza and Duomo, and time to explore Positano’s alleys and pebble beaches before lunch on board — typically pennetta alla Sorrentina or the captain’s catch, shaded from the sun.
Plan for sun, spray and narrow stone alleys ashore. Wear non-slip shoes for boarding, bring reef-safe sunscreen and a light wind layer for the return when the sea breathes cool. The trip is gentle physically but requires basic mobility for getting on and off the tender and docking.
Timing matters: mornings are calmer and quieter, afternoons warmer and busier. Respect local rules on marine protection, avoid single-use plastics, and let the sea do its work — it will show you the Amalfi Coast on its own terms.
Pickup to the embarkation port is often offered; confirm your specific meeting point at booking and allow extra time for transfers.
Yes — snorkeling equipment is provided and there are scheduled swim stops; conditions and locations depend on weather and captain’s discretion.
Lunch typically features pennetta alla Sorrentina or the captain’s catch; notify operators of allergies or special diets when booking to arrange alternatives.
The tour is family-friendly but infants must sit on laps; non-swimmers can stay on board during swim stops and safety gear is demonstrated before departure.
