Exploring Sorrento and the Amalfi Coastline

5.00Awesome way to explore Sorrento and the surrounding area. We rented the self driven 18ft and drove to Positano. After an anchor and swim around Positano we stopped for lunch in Nerano, which Luigi had recommended and it did not disappoint. No mechanical issues or otherwise with the rental or equipment.
Highly recommend!

5.00We had such an amazing experience renting our boat here! The reservation process was very easy, just needed an ID. Everyone who helped us was fantastic. They all spoke English, which made everything stress-free. Luigi was the main person we worked with, and he was great. This is a family-owned business that has been running for two generations, and even Grandpa is still helping out, which made it feel even more special. We rented the 18’ dinghy, which was the perfect size for my boyfriend and me. Everything on the boat worked smoothly, and while I didn’t drive, my boyfriend felt very safe and had no issues handling it. We had the perfect boat day with ideal weather and calm winds, which made it even better. We left from Sorrento and went all the way to Positano, where we stopped to swim at one of the beautiful beaches. On the way back, we stopped for lunch in Nerano and had a delicious meal at Il Cantuccio right on the water. All of this was possible because Luigi gave us great recommendations on where to go based on what we wanted for the day. It truly turned into a day we will always remember. Highly recommend!
Great boat hire experience

5.00Luigi and his team were kind and well serving. We had a fabulous 5hr boat hire (which I skippered as I have experience) and managed to get around to Marina del Cantone for lunch and the whole Island of Capri. Beautiful and great value day out with the family! Highly recommend. You could also hire a skipper to take you.
Amazing.

5.00If you don’t book this, your vacation won’t be complete! We absolutely loved our day sailing with adorable Tony. We sailed along the Sorrento and Amalfi coasts, stopped for swimming breaks and had time at Amalfi and Positano. The best part of the day was at Bagni Africano for the most delicious food and drinks! Highly recommend this day, you will treasure the memories forever!

5.00Luigi was a great host. Communication and briefing and return from the boat went smoothly. He made sure we could dock Capri at Marina Grande for a fee. We could discover the caves around Capri and parts of the Amalfi Coast, take a relaxing swim and do our thing as a family of four. It was a great trip and we can only recommend it.
