Itinerary

Amalfi Stop 1
TOUR OVERVIEW: The tour may depart from Amalfi, Positano, Sorrento or Salerno depending on the selected option (availability may vary by date). The route and order of stops will vary accordingly. Half-day options depart from Amalfi or Positano and focus on cruising and swimming along the stretch of coast between the two towns. Full-day options depart from Sorrento or Salerno and include approximately 1.5 hours of free time in Positano and 1.5 hours in Amalfi, during which guests may enjoy lunch at their leisure (not included), in addition to the coastal cruise and swimming stops. --- ITINERARY: Cruising near Amalfi, you'll pass beaches, sea caves, and ancient watchtowers, with chances to swim or snorkel in crystal-clear waters. Highlights along this stretch include the vast Saint Andrew’s Grotto, the striking Arc of Lovers, and the scenic village of Conca dei Marini, where you’ll spot Sophia Loren’s villa and the historic Il Saraceno hotel.
40 min
Conca dei Marini Stop 2
The picturesque bay of Conca dei Marini opens into panoramic views of Furore, Praiano, and the islands of Li Galli and Capri, with a glimpse of the iconic Faraglioni Rocks. Here, you’ll stop near the Runghetiello Grotto, a charming little sea cave with a tiny beach — perfect for swimming or snorkeling. During the break, enjoy fresh fruit served on board with a selection of drinks, including prosecco, Limoncello, beer, and soft drinks.
40 min
Fiordo Di Furore Stop 3
Nearby lies the dramatic Furore Fjord, Italy’s only natural fjord. Towering cliffs surround a narrow inlet, over which stretches a high bridge — the site of the international diving competition MarMeeting, where athletes from around the world plunge 28 meters into the sea below each July.
20 min
Praiano Stop 4
Continuing along the coast, the boat cruises past the quiet village of Praiano, offering a close look at the Africana Grotto. Inside this larger sea cave, the water takes on an intense blue hue thanks to a unique play of light and underwater rock.
20 min
Positano Stop 5
As you cruise past Capo Sottile toward Positano, you’ll marvel at its colorful cliffside homes and beautiful beaches. A stop at La Porta, a peaceful, boat-access-only beach, offers another chance to swim or snorkel in uncrowded waters. During this break, relax and enjoy fresh fruit along with a variety of drinks, including prosecco, Limoncello, beer, and sodas.
