You step off Positano’s pebble shoreline onto a low pier and the sea answers under the hull — cool, bright, and ready to carry you toward Capri. The skipper slides the engine into a steady hum and the coastline peels away: pastel houses, vertical terraces, and olive-scrubbed cliffs that have drawn visitors since Roman times.
