You step down from the Marina Piccola steps and the salt air immediately takes shape—brisk, bright, and a little daring. The boat eases away from Sorrento’s cliffs, the town shrinking into warm stucco and citrus terraces while the captain plots a curve toward Punta Campanella, the seam where the Sorrento coast hands the day off to the Amalfi.
