About this tour

What to expect
The day unfolds at sea level. Starting from Positano, you'll motor past the protected headlands toward Capri, watching the coastline shift from sandy beaches to sheer cliffs. The boat pulls into smaller grottoes for swimming—the emerald-coloured Green Grotto is particularly striking. After three hours exploring Capri's port town and clifftop villages (lunch costs extra at waterfront restaurants), you'll return along the island's eastern edge, stopping again for a final swim before heading back. Expect moderate boat movement; the Tyrrhenian Sea can be choppy, particularly in afternoon winds.
Good to know
Blue Grotto entry is paid separately on arrival. Capri port fees apply if you disembark there. Bring a passport copy and swimwear. The boat has a canopy and toilet. Not suitable for pregnant travellers or those with spinal issues. Maximum group size is seven, keeping crowds minimal.
