Set off on a full-day private boat tour that brings the dramatic coastlines and hidden corners of Italy’s Amalfi Coast to life. Operating out of Sorrento, Sorrento Boat Trips offers a seamless way to experience the iconic island of Capri and the quiet allure of Nerano from the water—far from the usual crowds. The day begins cruising around Capri, a volcanic island renowned for crystal-clear waters and striking geological formations. Key stops include the towering Faraglioni sea stacks, each sculpted over millennia by the relentless Mediterranean Sea, and the famed Blue Grotto—a sea cave glowing with surreal blue light when weather and tides permit entry.
As your private vessel glides along the coast, you’ll pass dramatic features such as the Natural Arch, carved by wind and waves, and the historic Punta Carena lighthouse, standing as a sentinel on Capri’s southwestern point. Swimming opportunities abound in the calm, turquoise waters, perfect for a refreshing dip amid unparalleled scenery.
After soaking in Capri’s glamour and charm, you’ll head to Nerano, a lesser-known fishing village cradled between cliffs and sea. Known for its tranquil coves and fresh seafood, Nerano invites you to unwind on its quiet beach or enjoy an optional lunch at a waterfront trattoria. This part of the tour contrasts the high-energy allure of Capri with authentic coastal slow living.
