About this tour
Spend a full day cruising the Amalfi Coast by private boat, stopping at Positano's pastel-hued waterfront and the historic fishing town of Amalfi. Swim in sheltered coves with gin-clear water, snorkel from the boat, and relax on deck with drinks and snacks whilst an English-speaking skipper handles navigation. Seven to eight hours of coastal exploration at your own pace, no rushing between tour groups.
Highlights
- Anchor in secluded coves for swimming and snorkelling
- Explore Positano's colourful clifftop village from the water
- Visit Amalfi's historic cathedral and working fishing harbour
- Onboard prosecco, wine, beer, and soft drinks included
- Snorkelling gear provided; shower onboard
- WiFi and music throughout the day
What to expect
Your skipper will chart a course that gives you proper time in the water rather than a windscreen tour. Expect to anchor offshore at Positano long enough to take photos and swim; the boat works as your floating base. You'll cruise to Amalfi town itself, where the pace slows—wander the piazza, check out the cathedral, grab lunch independently if you wish. Between stops, there's ample time lounging on sunbeds with a drink, snorkelling in clearer patches, or simply watching the coast slip past. The boat has shower facilities if you want freshwater rinse-offs.
Good to know
Lunch is not provided—budget for a meal in Amalfi or bring supplies. Bring sunscreen and a hat; reflection off water intensifies UV. Snorkelling gear is basic but functional. Infants sit on laps; prams aren't practical on a boat. Public transport links are available if you need to reach the departure point.
