The boat slips away from Sorrento at first light and the sea opens like a moving map: white-capped wakes, cliffs cut in strata, and the island of Capri growing larger until its limestone face fills the horizon. Onboard a classic wooden gozzo, the captain trims the sails and the engine hums under conversations about where to anchor, when to swim, and which grotto to enter.

The boat slips away from Sorrento at first light and the sea opens like a moving map: white-capped wakes, cliffs cut in strata, and the island of Capri growing larger until its limestone face fills the horizon. Onboard a classic wooden gozzo, the captain trims the sails and the engine hums under conversations about where to anchor, when to swim, and which grotto to enter.
Capri and the Amalfi Coast are geological pages — uplifted limestone, wave-carved arches, and the Faraglioni stacks that rise like offshore pillars. Capri carries a Roman aftertaste (Tiberius kept villas here) while Amalfi bears medieval trading echoes, its cathedral bell tower and paper mills recalling a coastal republic. Local culture is maritime and citrus-scented: fishermen, lemon groves, and cafés that measure time in espresso shots.
The itinerary moves from the Blue Grotto’s otherworldly light to the Marvellous, White and Red Grottos, through the Arch of Love at the Faraglioni, with optional stops at Marina Grande, Positano, Tordigliano beach and Amalfi’s Duomo.
Practical guidance: this is a full-day private cruise (approximately 6–8 hours). Expect multiple short disembarkations and swims; the Blue Grotto sometimes requires a small rowboat transfer and short queues. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a towel (provided), a light wind layer, and shoes that grip wet decks. Time your trip for morning light in the Blue Grotto or late afternoon for softer coastal colors. Respect marine protected areas by avoiding seagrass beds when swimming and follow crew instructions for safe boarding and exits.
Blue Grotto entrance fees and small rowboat transfers are often not included; follow the crew’s guidance at the site and be prepared for a short additional charge.
Yes — the itinerary includes swim stops in clear coves; the crew will choose safe anchor spots and advise on currents and entry/exit points.
Boarding is typically via low piers or stepped ladders; wear shoes with grip and follow crew instructions — assistance is provided on private tours.
