Set off from the Amalfi Coast for an eight-hour motor-yacht cruise that circles Capri, passes the Faraglioni and offers an optional visit to the Blue Grotto. Expect coastal panoramas, an island stop for lunch and a possible swim near Positano.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The motor-yacht slips away from Amalfi’s sunlit darsena and the sea immediately takes the lead: gulls wheel, cliffs fall away into blue, and the coastline unfolds like a map you can read by sight alone.

Reserve your spot on the From Amalfi Coast: Capri Cruise by boat 12 pax today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Confirm meeting point
Contact the operator 3 days before departure to reconfirm meeting time and exact pier — boarding varies between Maiori, Minori and Amalfi.
Bring motion-sickness remedies
Open sea and tight lanes around Capri can be choppy; take anti-nausea medication or use acupressure bands if you’re prone to seasickness.
Pack layered sun protection
A windproof light layer and high-SPF sunscreen are useful — reflection from water increases UV exposure even on cloudy days.
Cash for the Blue Grotto
If you want to enter the Blue Grotto bring small cash (approx €15 per person) and be prepared for the wait if sea conditions are calm.
Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
High UV exposure on open water makes broad-spectrum sunscreen essential.

Light windproof jacket
Even in summer the wind off the Tyrrhenian can be chilly when the boat is moving.
spring
Motion-sickness remedy or bands
Useful if you are sensitive to rolling or sudden wakes.
