The hull parts silence and the coast unfolds like a series of carved postcards—steep cliffs, pastel houses clinging to terraces, and the sea that keeps tugging at your attention. On an eight-hour full-day boat tour from Sorrento, passengers trade crowded promenades for a front-row seat to the Amalfi Coast: Punta Campanella’s headland, the green pocket of Marina del Cantone, the narrow inlet of Crapolla, and the small, myth-shrouded Li Galli islets where the sirens once supposedly sang.
