What to expect
You'll depart Sorrento early morning and head south along the coast's most photographed stretch. The boat moves at a leisurely pace, stopping frequently to swim and snorkel in shallow bays where the water turns shades of green and blue. Positano appears suddenly—a vertical tapestry of coloured houses tumbling toward the sea. Time ashore here is yours to wander boutiques and alleyways or grab lunch at a harbourside trattoria (cost separate). Later, you'll cruise toward Amalfi town itself, another postcard-perfect stop with cathedral and winding streets. Throughout, your skipper points out landmarks and adjusts plans based on conditions and your mood.
