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.

This route threads together history and geology. Amalfi’s cathedral remembers a time when the town was a medieval maritime republic; Fiordo di Furore carves a rare fjord into the coast’s fractured limestone; Li Galli islands carry myths of sirens that once lured sailors. Local culture is citrus-sweet—lemons and sea salt shape the food and the limoncello that follows an afternoon meal.
Practically, expect a 9–10 hour private cruise from Sorrento with a professional English-speaking captain, snorkeling gear, towels, water toys, and on-board restrooms. Stops typically include views of Li Galli, a seaside village lunch, two to three hours in Positano, a pass-by of Fiordo di Furore, time in Amalfi to see the Cathedral of St. Andrew, and a sunset aperitif at Marina di Puolo.
Plan for sun and splash: bring reef-safe sunscreen, a lightweight wind layer for evening, and seasickness meds if you’re sensitive. Book early in high season; sunset timing shifts through the year. The tour’s private format makes it flexible—ask the captain to adjust stops for tide, light, or your preferred pace.
