Board in Positano and circle Capri on a private boat tour that drops anchor at sea caves, Faraglioni stacks and Li Galli islets. Expect swims, grotto views (Blue Grotto entry extra) and optional time ashore in Capri’s Piazzetta.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from Positano’s busy main pier as the town’s cliffs peel away behind you — pastel houses stacked into the slope, gulls cutting lazy arcs above the bow. The boat slips into a corridor of cobalt; the sea dares you forward while limestone cliffs hum with ancient weathering.

History
Capri has been a draw since Roman times — emperors built villas here and the island’s grottos and villas echo centuries of coastal culture.
Conservation
The area contains sensitive posidonia seagrass beds and is part of marine-protected zones; avoid anchoring on meadows and minimize plastic use to reduce impact.

Bring cash for grotto and port fees
Blue Grotto entrance and Capri port taxes are paid locally; bring small bills to avoid surprises.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect the clear water and your skin — regular sunscreens can harm marine life and corrode boat fittings.
Secure small bags
Use a waterproof pouch for phone, camera, and passports; waves and swim stops make loose items vulnerable.
Plan for seasickness
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication before boarding and choose a mid-boat seat near the center.
