Operated by Cooperativa Azzurra Sorrento · Sorrento, Campania
The Sorrento Coast in Campania, Italy, offers one of the Mediterranean’s most captivating marine landscapes. From the striking cliffs of the Amalfi Coast to the iconic rock formations of Capri, the region’s coastline unfolds in dramatic curves, secluded coves, and deep blue waters. Cooperativa Azzurra Sorrento brings this beauty within reach through their self-drive rental of the Romar 20ft motorboat, an ideal choice for anyone wanting the freedom to chart their own maritime course.
This nimble Romar 20ft, equipped with a 40HP engine and comfort features like cushioned seating and a sunshade, accommodates up to five passengers without requiring a boating license—perfect for couples, families, or small groups eager to steal away from the crowds. Starting from Via Marina Grande in Sorrento, renters can head west toward the striking limestone cliffs near Positano or east to the famed island of Capri, famed for its Blue Grotto and dramatic Faraglioni sea stacks.
What sets this experience apart is the sheer autonomy it offers; captains steer clear of crowded tour boats, diving into hidden bays, discovering unmarked beaches, and slowing down for swimming or snorkeling stops that larger vessels can’t reach. The coastline here is a geological marvel — white and ochre cliffs contrast against lush Mediterranean vegetation and crystal-clear water, providing stunning backdrops for an intimate day on the water.
Cooperativa Azzurra Sorrento’s approach balances adventure with safety, supplying thorough briefings, detailed maps, and full safety gear. The company’s presence reinforces sustainable tourism efforts by encouraging responsible, low-impact interaction with this delicate marine environment.
