A boat tour around the island of Capri is one of the most exciting experiences to live on the Amalfi Coast. Your adventure begins at Positano's main beach, where your skipper will welcome you aboard a private boat ready to sail to one of the most fascinating islands in the Mediterranean. Welcome aboard!
We will sail along the coast and around Capri, doing what we love most: exploring the sea in total freedom. The tour is fully customizable: you can choose whether to spend more time on the island, swim in the crystal clear waters or discover hidden coves.
While sailing you will admire the legendary Li Galli islands, where according to myth Ulysses met the mermaids. Once in Capri, your skipper will show you the most iconic places on the island, such as the White Grotto, the Green Grotto and the famous Faraglioni. You will also have time to have lunch at a seaside restaurant and visit the island on your own.

Positano
Positano seen from the sea is pure magic: a mosaic of pastel-colored houses that gently descend towards the water, framed by cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation. Sailing along the coast you will discover hidden caves, secret coves and crystal clear waters, while the iconic Listing of the village offers one of the most suggestive views of the entire Amalfi Coast.
Blue Grotto
The Blue Grotto is a legendary place where sunlight filters through the small opening, turning the water into a kaleidoscope of intense and brilliant blues. A magical experience that seems to come out of a dream, where each reflection creates unique color games. The visit depends on the sea conditions and must always be agreed with the skipper on the day of the tour, to experience this natural spectacle in total safety.

We had an awesome day on the boat. The boat was excellent, the captain and team were amazing, and the views were beautiful. We came in with a very flexible plan and they did a great job of showing us a really good time.

Our private boat tour from Positano to Capri was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Our captain, Giovanni, was knowledgeable, friendly, and an expert at navigating the coastline. He made the entire experience feel effortless and personalized, pointing out hidden coves, sharing stories about the Amalfi Coast, and timing our stops perfectly to avoid the crowds. We swam in crystal-clear water, explored Capri’s stunning grottos, and even stopped for a delicious lunch overlooking the sea. The boat itself was spotless and comfortable, stocked with drinks and towels, and the whole experience felt relaxed yet luxurious. This was truly the highlight of our Italy trip. if you’re considering a private boat tour, don’t hesitate. Ask for Giovanni. He made the day unforgettable!

The boat day was amazing! The boat was extremely clean and the staff helped with everything we needed. We had a larger group who wanted different things and they were accommodating with different pick ups/drop offs and staying on boat to swim if we wished. It was fun to play music on the speakers too! Highly recommend

My husband and I booked this boat trip to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Nino showed us a great time. He was very responsive to our needs- he caught on right away that my husband was a bit seasick and did everything he could to accommodate him. It was fun, informative, relaxing and tailor made for us. Thanks for taking great care of us!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Giuseppe is hands down the best boat captain and host you could ever ask for on the Amalfi Coast and Capri. From the moment we stepped onto his beautiful boat, he made us feel like family. We cruised down the Amalfi Coast and around Capri, exploring every magical cave on the island — the famous Blue Grotto, Green Grotto, White Grotto, and even hidden private caves that only someone like Giuseppe seems to know about. What made the day even more unforgettable was Giuseppe himself. His knowledge of Capri’s rich history, paired with his fun-loving personality, made the ride both educational and entertaining. At one moment he was pouring us champagne with a smile, the next he was pointing out a centuries-old villa or a secret swimming spot where we could dive off the boat into crystal-clear water. On top of everything, we bonded over our shared love for bulldogs — something that instantly made the day feel even more personal and special. This wasn’t just any trip for us; it was our 15th wedding anniversary and our last day in Positano, and Giuseppe made it truly extraordinary. Giuseppe isn’t just a captain; he’s a storyteller, a historian, and the ultimate host. If you’re ever lucky enough to be in Capri, do yourself a favor and book a day with him. It’s not just a boat ride — it’s an experience you’ll treasure forever.

We booked our trip online a couple of days before the trip date and the company was very responsive and helpful and our Skipper (Giovanni) just added excellence to the trip. Prices are on the higher end, but it was worth it. Giovanni is a very welcoming, friendly and professional individual, as well as a skilled sailor and a knowledgeable guide who added value to our trip by telling us about the different stories and history and background of different sites seen from the boat on our trip. He speaks fluent English and he is a great story teller. I went on the trip with my boyfriend and we felt very welcomed with a great respect and attention to our privacy and time together as a couple. The trip was an exotic one worthy of repeating. We started from Capri and took a quick tour around the island, then we headed to the Amalfi coast. We landed in Amalfi town for lunch and a walk in the town and had its famous lemon sorbet, then we headed back to our boat and went to Positano where we anchored and went for a swim in the crystal clear and refreshing water with the amazing view of the town. Lastly, and before returning to Capri, We ended our trip by heading to the sirens island along which we hd another brief swim there while Giovanni informed us about the various stories and history of these islands.

Beautiful tour between Capri and Nerano, with a stop at the famous Cantuccio restaurant, on the occasion of the bachelorette party of a friend. Our captain Giovanni was able to make the experience even more exciting thanks to his sympathy, without ever lacking in great professionalism. Bubbles, snacks and music accompanied the moments of navigation between a stop and another in the crystal clear waters of our wonderful coast, which Giovanni has been able to make us fully enjoy. Impeccable boat in beauty, comfort and cleanliness. I absolutely recommend the experience.
