More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sea opens like a route on glass as the gozzo slips away from Sorrento’s marina. Salt air sharpens the light; cliffs of the Sorrentine coast fall back into the distance while the captain plots a slow arc toward Ischia and Procida. On deck you feel the day measured in bays, in the sting of wind on your face and the cool dip of the Mediterranean when the skipper throws the anchor for a swim.
