Amalfi Coast Private Boat: Positano, Amalfi & Sea Caves

Glide along the world's most dramatic coastline aboard a private luxury vessel, anchoring at Positano's pastel cliffs, swimming in hidden sea caves, and toasting with Aperol spritz as the Tyrrhenian sun sets. The Amalfi Coast from the water is simply unmissable.

What to expect

Step aboard a classic wooden gozzo or sleek motorboat from Salerno's marina and trace the jaw-dropping limestone cliffs of the Amalfi Coast. Your skipper navigates into the Grotta dello Smeraldo, stops at secluded coves for snorkeling, and moors at Positano's beach for a long, unhurried lunch. The return sail at golden hour, with the coast glowing amber, is the defining image of any Italy trip.
