Sea You Later: Boat Tours on the Amalfi Coast
No summer vacation in Italy is complete without a trip to the Amalfi Coast. And the best way to experience it? With any of these four incredible boat tours.
Enchanting, seductive, and charmingly picturesque, the Amalfi Coast is nearly impossible not to fall in love with. The houses are a palette of pastel stacked high into a cliff-side, the single narrow road affords breathtaking views at every hairpin turn, and the air is permanently perfumed with citrus. But though the Amalfi Coast is intoxicating when explored by foot, it gets even better by water. Whatever amount of time you have to spare – an hour, a day, even a week – a boat trip is essential to really experiencing this incredible destination.
Touted as an outstanding example of a Mediterranean landscape, the Amalfi Coast is one of the world's – and Italy's – most picturesque UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Sunset Cruise
After a day of sightseeing, there’s no better way to relax than with a private sunset tour of the coast. While sipping prosecco, you can admire the rainbow-hued houses of Positano and Amalfi, glimpse the mythological Li Galli Island (home of the Sirens who tempted Ulysses), and watch as the sun disappears behind Capri.
Full-Day Amalfi Coast Cruise
Want to spend more than a few hours on the water? Try a full-day, private cruise along the Amalfi Coast. A local captain will pick you up from the village of your choice and take you to coves for swimming, hidden caves decorated with stalactites, and historical Roman ruins. You’ll also pass picturesque villages where you can stop and meander along cobblestone alleys to find boutiques or a quaint restaurant for lunch.
Tour Capri
Bypass the crowds and experience the real Capri, an island of enchanting beauty, clear waters, and one-of-a-kind experiences. On a private boat tour, you’ll circumnavigate the entire island while visiting famous grottos and i faraglioni (famous rock formations). Throughout the day, the boat will stop in various inlets and lagoons, providing you with an opportunity to swim in the Mediterranean Sea.
Weekly Rentals
Admire one of the world’s most famous coastlines aboard your personal yacht. Select your choice of boat from the fleet and enjoy an English-speaking Captain who can take you to the best spots for open-water swimming and sightseeing. And, while you’re onboard taking in the beauty of the coastline, you can sip complimentary drinks, savor freshly prepared snacks, and indulge in an unforgettable experience.
