A private two-day mini cruise that pairs Capri’s grottos with the cliff towns of the Amalfi Coast. Swim, snorkel and sleep aboard with breakfast included and flexible stops from Positano to Nerano.
The day begins before most day-trippers arrive: a private boat slips from the Port of Sorrento and the cliff-face towns of the Amalfi Coast peel away like a painted backdrop. Salt air pulls at your hair, gulls wheel and the water ahead cuts from teal to cobalt as the hull sets course for Li Galli, Positano and the vertical terraces of Amalfi. By evening the boat anchors at Marina Grande in Capri; you step ashore to a town lit low and soft as the sun leans toward the Faraglioni.

The day begins before most day-trippers arrive: a private boat slips from the Port of Sorrento and the cliff-face towns of the Amalfi Coast peel away like a painted backdrop. Salt air pulls at your hair, gulls wheel and the water ahead cuts from teal to cobalt as the hull sets course for Li Galli, Positano and the vertical terraces of Amalfi. By evening the boat anchors at Marina Grande in Capri; you step ashore to a town lit low and soft as the sun leans toward the Faraglioni.
Geology and history are in plain sight — Capri’s limestone has been carved into blue, green and white grottos where light performs its own theater, while Amalfi still wears the scars and triumphs of a medieval maritime republic. Positano’s stepped houses cling to volcanic slopes; Nerano offers fish landed the same morning. Local culture orbits lemons: Sorrento limoncello, seaside trattorie and fishermen who know every current.
Practically, expect an easy-paced two-day cruise with snorkel stops, swim breaks and an overnight cabin. The tour includes breakfast and snorkel gear; restrooms are on board and a bilingual captain manages navigation and safety. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, water shoes and a light layer for evenings; seas can be calm but bring motion-sickness remedies if you’re sensitive. Blue Grotto entry depends on sea conditions, so stay flexible. Book early in high season, confirm departure time (often 09:00 or 11:00), and allow time to reach the Sorrento meeting point. This trip balances relaxed coastal swimming with the rare chance to wake up docked in Capri — an efficient, scenic way to experience Amalfi’s coastline without constant transfers.
