Details

Sorrento, perched along Italy’s Amalfi Coast in the Napoli region, is a gateway to some of the Mediterranean’s most compelling seascapes. From this historic coastal town, Sorrento Sea Tours offers a standout maritime experience aboard the Barca Sparviero 7.5tmt — a vessel that marries modern comfort with retro charm, equipped with amenities including a kitchen, hot and cold showers, and air conditioning. This blend of practicality and style means travelers can navigate the glistening Tyrrhenian Sea in both relaxation and style.

The Sparviero 7 operates out of Piano di Sorrento, a quieter stretch of shoreline just a short distance from the bustling heart of Sorrento itself. The boat’s design allows guests to comfortably spend hours on the water, venturing along rugged cliffs, secluded coves, and crystalline bays inaccessible by land. Along the route, distinctive limestone cliffs rise dramatically from the sea, dotted with fragrant Mediterranean shrubs and the occasional cave entrance revealing the geological history of this coastline.

Whether it’s a day trip to Capri, a sunset sail, or a custom itinerary, the vessel’s blend of vintage allure and functionality turns the trip into a personal escape, connecting visitors intimately with the region’s natural beauty and seafaring roots.

For those eager to embrace a different perspective of Italy’s southern coastline, Sorrento Sea Tours offers a sophisticated, well-rounded nautical adventure that makes an indelible mark on any traveler’s Mediterranean journey.
