The bow slips away from Amalfi’s Darsena and the cliff-face of the coastline unfurls—limestone ledges, lemon terraces, and shuttered villas clinging to steep paths. The salt air pushes at your face; the captain points toward an offshore arch and the boat eases into the quiet between waves.

Amalfi was a medieval maritime republic; many coastal villas and terraces grew from the prosperity of seafaring trade between the Mediterranean ports.

Boarding and footwear
Wear secure, non-slip shoes for steps on and off the gozzo; flip-flops are fine for the sun deck but not for boarding.

Bring motion-sickness tablets or patches for anyone who’s prone—early-morning calm can still turn choppy in open stretches.
Cash for shore stops
Have small euros for cafés, shops, and tips in Positano—some family-run places accept only cash.
Sun protection
Apply reef-safe sunscreen, wear a hat and UV-protective shirt for long exposures on deck.
