Board a gleaming traditional Sorrentine gozzo for a private cruise beneath the cliffs of Positano, Praiano, and the Fiordo di Furore. Swim from the boat in emerald grottoes, sip Campanian Falanghina, and watch the coast turn gold at sunset.
What to expect
The boat departs Salerno or Amalfi harbour and immediately threads beneath dramatic limestone cliffs draped in bougainvillea. Your skipper knows every hidden grotto and will cut the engine so you can hear nothing but the sea lapping against tuffaceous rock. Antipasto, local wine, and limoncello are served on deck. The golden-hour light on the terraced lemon groves is genuinely otherworldly.
Good to know
Arrange port pickup or a private transfer from Naples/Salerno to Amalfi (~EUR 120 by private car). Confirm all-aboard time with the captain the night before. Book at least 4 weeks ahead in peak season (June–September). Sunscreen, a hat, and a light layer for the return are essential.
