About this tour
Spend eight hours exploring Capri's hidden coves and grottos aboard a private wooden gozzo, departing from the Amalfi Coast. Your boat skirts the dramatic shoreline past Punta Campanella marine reserve, calling at Marina Piccola for a swim and aperitif, then heads to Nerano beach where you'll lunch at a waterfront restaurant. The captain adapts the route to conditions and your interests—the Blue Grotto, Green Grotto, and White Grotto are all within reach. Maximum six passengers, so you'll have genuine privacy.

What to expect
Your day opens with a departure from one of five Amalfi Coast towns, then a scenic sail toward Capri passing the protected Punta Campanella headland. Once at the island, you'll motor past Marina Grande and approach the celebrated grottos—the Blue Grotto entry fee is separate, but the captain will position the boat so you can decide on the spot. You'll drift past the iconic Faraglioni rocks, exploring emerald waters and limestone caverns. Mid-morning brings a proper swim break at Marina Piccola, Capri's quieter anchorage, where cold drinks and nibbles await. The afternoon pivots toward Nerano: a final grotto stop before arriving at the beach, where you disembark for lunch at a harborside trattoria (your choice of restaurant). One more swimming opportunity breaks up the return journey.
