Spend a full day exploring the Amalfi Coast by private boat from Sorrento—swim hidden coves, stroll Positano’s stepped lanes, and finish with prosecco as the sun sinks. Practical, private, and paced to suit your group.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from Sorrento’s marina as morning light slants across the Tyrrhenian; the hull slips past limestone cliffs that will keep you company all day. The sea is both road and storyteller here—gulls circle, and the shore towns rise like staircases from the water, each stop promising a different rhythm: swimming in a quiet cove, a slow lunch on a fishermen’s beach, and a final glass of prosecco as the sun drops behind Positano.
