What to expect
You'll depart Amalfi in a newly built traditional gozzo with your small group, cruising south past protected waters toward Capri. The morning focuses on the island's sea caves and rock formations—gliding into the Green Grotto to swim in mineral-coloured water, then circling the Faraglioni and Natural Arch. Afternoon brings Marina Piccola, where you'll have three uninterrupted hours: lunch at a harborside trattoria (your cost), then freely explore steep village streets or relax on the rocks. The return voyage includes a swimming and snorkelling pause at the Li Galli Islands. Expect moderate sea swell and full sun; the boat offers a canopy and coolers stocked with prosecco, beer, limoncello and soft drinks.
Good to know
Blue Grotto entry tickets are purchased separately on arrival. A port fee applies if you disembark at Capri's main harbour instead of anchoring offshore. Bring your passport copy. The boat has a toilet and shaded stern area. Pregnant travellers and those with spine or heart conditions should not participate. Children under 18 cannot consume alcohol.
