Sorrento: Private Scenic Boat Tour to Positano and Amalfi

Departing from Sorrento, this private full-day boat tour invites you to experience the Amalfi Coast in the most scenic and comfortable way possible. As you cruise along the coastline, the landscape slowly transforms into a masterpiece of nature and history, where steep limestone cliffs plunge into turquoise waters and pastel villages cling to the mountainsides.

Your journey begins with views of the Villa of Pollio Felice, also known as Queen Giovanna’s Baths, an ancient Roman site overlooking a natural sea pool. Sailing onward, you will reach Punta Campanella, a protected marine reserve marking the gateway between the Gulf of Naples and the Gulf of Salerno, where mythology and breathtaking scenery meet.

Continuing along the coast, admire the legendary Li Galli Islands, said to be the home of the Sirens in Greek mythology, rising elegantly from the sea. The route then reveals the dramatic beauty of the Amalfi Coast itself, passing hidden coves and pristine swimming spots before reaching the iconic villages. From the water, Positano appears like a cascade of colorful houses tumbling toward the sea, offering one of the most photographed views in Italy.

The tour also includes time to admire Amalfi, the former maritime republic, with its striking cathedral and vibrant harbor, as well as the spectacular Fiordo di Furore, a narrow fjord carved deep into the cliffs. Throughout the day, relax on deck, swim in crystal-clear waters, and enjoy refreshing drinks and local limoncello, making this a perfect blend of natural beauty, culture, and leisure.
