The day begins at Positano’s main pier with varnished wood glinting under a striped awning and a crew ready to ease you aboard. The boat slips away from the ferry bustle and the cliffs of the Amalfi coast unfold—lime terraces, old watch towers and small coves opening like doors to the sea.

The day begins at Positano’s main pier with varnished wood glinting under a striped awning and a crew ready to ease you aboard. The boat slips away from the ferry bustle and the cliffs of the Amalfi coast unfold—lime terraces, old watch towers and small coves opening like doors to the sea.
This route follows centuries of coastal life: medieval watchtowers that once warned against corsairs, Roman villas perched above the water, and fishing hamlets that shaped local cuisine. Geologically the coastline is limestone and marl, scored by sea caves and the dramatic Faraglioni stacks off Capri—rock pillars carved by waves and time.
The itinerary moves through the protected Punta Campanella marine area toward Capri. Expect photo passes at Furore fjord, a swim or snorkel stop at the Li Galli islets, a visit to Marina Piccola for lunch, and optional tender trips to the Blue Grotto when conditions allow. Water here can play coy—green grottos glow, the Blue Grotto’s color depends on light and swell.
Practical: the trip runs about eight hours. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, swimwear and a light wind layer for open-water stretches. The Blue Grotto may have queues and is closed in rough seas; the captain will advise the best sequence. Onboard amenities include snacks, soft drinks, prosecco, snorkeling gear and a restroom.
Timing your swim breaks mid-morning or late afternoon avoids crowds, and keeping a respectful distance from marine life supports the protected areas. For a comfortable day at sea: hydrate, secure loose items, and be ready to swap the cliff view for a plunge into emerald water.
