You push off from Sorrento’s small harbor as the town shrinks into citrus-scented cliffs, the hull cutting a bright line across the Tyrrhenian. The skipper eases the boat toward Capri’s silhouette, where white houses cling to limestone terraces and the Faraglioni rocks puncture the horizon.

You push off from Sorrento’s small harbor as the town shrinks into citrus-scented cliffs, the hull cutting a bright line across the Tyrrhenian. The skipper eases the boat toward Capri’s silhouette, where white houses cling to limestone terraces and the Faraglioni rocks puncture the horizon.
Capri has long been a refuge — from Roman emperors to modern-day designers — its limestone cliffs carved by sea and wind into caves, arches and grottoes. Positano began as a fishing hamlet and silk center; today its stacked houses drop like a watercolor into the sea. Between them, the marine reserve near Punta Campanella supports dense Posidonia meadows and small groves of fish.
On an 18ft private charter you’ll see the Blue Grotto’s shifting light (entrance depends on sea conditions), float by the Faraglioni, and pull into sheltered bays for swims and snorkeling. The skipper sets a flexible pace: time to walk Capri’s narrow streets, shop for linen and ceramics, or stay on deck with a glass of Prosecco.
Plan for sea motion and midday sun. Carry a light wind shell for the open crossing and reef-safe sunscreen for midday anchoring. Book early in high season to secure a morning slot for calmer seas and a better chance to enter the Blue Grotto. Respect no-anchoring and marine reserve zones; the local ecosystem is fragile and best admired without disturbance.
This day-long private cruise blends gentle navigation, seaside history and hands-on choices — swim where the water calls, or drift and watch the coast change color as afternoon turns toward Sorrento.
Entry to the Blue Grotto depends on sea state and tide; the skipper will attempt access if conditions permit, but it is not guaranteed.
The tour includes water, soft drinks, beers, Prosecco, Limoncello and dry snacks; you can also choose to have lunch ashore in Capri or Positano at your own expense.
On an 18ft private boat restroom options are limited; plan short onshore stops if you need full facilities—check with the operator before booking.
Infants are allowed but must sit on an adult’s lap; the operator does not recommend the tour for pregnant travelers and advises booking with that in mind.
Sorrento Trips operates guided outdoor trips and adventures with an emphasis on safety, stewardship, and memorable experiences.
