About this tour
Your own boat departs Sorrento for eight hours exploring Capri's coastline, with a skipper navigating grottos, hidden coves, and dramatic rock formations. The Gozzo—classic wooden fishing boat—carries up to eight passengers, fuelled and crewed, with hotel pickup and drop-off included. Swim in turquoise water, sunbathe on deck, and sip cold drinks whilst the Amalfi Coast unfolds in the distance. No crowded group tours, no set itineraries—your priorities shape the day.

What to expect
You'll be picked up from your Sorrento accommodation and driven to the boat, where your skipper briefs you on the day ahead. The crossing to Capri takes roughly 45 minutes; once there, you'll cruise past sheer cliffs, thread through sea caves, and anchor in quiet bays for swimming. Bring or wear swimwear—the water is cold but crystal-clear. The skipper will suggest spots based on conditions and your interests. You can linger at any location or push on to another. Onboard toilet, fresh fruit, snacks, and chilled drinks keep you comfortable. Return to Sorrento by late afternoon.
