About this tour
An 8-hour private sailboat charter along Italy's Amalfi Coast that trades motorised speed for the quieter pull of wind and sail. You'll navigate the dramatic coastline at a pace that lets you absorb the landscape—stopping to swim, snorkel, and eat lunch made from local ingredients. The crew adjusts the itinerary to suit your mood, whether that means lingering in a quiet cove or exploring a new anchorage. Prosecco, beer, and local liqueur feature throughout.
Highlights
- Private sailboat with flexible routing along Amalfi's cliffside villages
- Snorkel gear and open-water swimming at hidden spots
- Light lunch of regional produce prepared on board
- Prosecco and Italian liqueur service included
- Sail-powered silence—no engine roar
- Small-group intimacy with attentive crew
What to expect
You'll board in the morning and spend the day under canvas, moving between anchorages the crew selects based on wind and your preferences. Swimming and snorkelling happen in clear water away from crowds; bring a towel and sunscreen. Lunch is a simple affair—cured meats, cheese, bread, perhaps pasta—eaten on deck with a view. Expect downtime between stops; bring a book or simply watch the coastline roll past. The boat rocks gently; if you're prone to motion sickness, take precautions beforehand.
Good to know
