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.

What To Expect
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.

Amalfi Coast Boat Tour

5.00We left Capri by boat and cruised along the Amalfi Coast. Seeing Positano from the water was stunning. We also got to explore the charming streets of Amalfi which made the entire experience perfect from start to finish. Our captain/guide Giovanni Panico was amazing and his lunch recommendation on the beach was very memorable! Would definitely book again next time we’re in the area.
Perfect boating experience on the Amalfi coast!

5.00AMAZING experience!! Booked this tour with family and had SO much fun. From the moment we reached the dock until we completed the tour, we were having the time of our lives on the “FANCY” and in Capri. Cannot say enough great things about this experience- Ilaria and Nicolai were perfect hosts and made the trip extremely comfortable and enjoyable! 10/10 A+ would do this again in a heartbeat!
Wonderful Private Cruise Experience

5.00Cannot say enough good things about our private yacht tour. Emilio was a perfect and gracious host. Our yacht - the 52’ Lancia Aprea was absolutely gorgeous and just a year old. We were able to customize our tour for how long we spent at various stops. Word of advice - if we had to do it again we would have just boated around Calpri and not gone on the island. Too crowded and touristy. The stop in Nerano for lunch was delightful. I felt like this was a really good value for the quality we received.
Private Boat Charter – Amalfi Coast

5.00We booked a private boat charter for a day along the Amalfi Coast, and from the moment we stepped aboard, it was clear this was going to be something special. The boat itself was stunning — a beautifully appointed 51-foot vessel equipped with stabilizers, which made all the difference on the water. Even with some chop, the ride was smooth and comfortable the entire day. The crew was exceptional. Attentive without being intrusive, helpful without being overbearing — exactly what you want when you’re trying to relax and take in some of the most breathtaking coastline in the world. They clearly love what they do, and that enthusiasm is contagious. Lunch was already arranged and waiting for us — fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and perfectly timed. No fussing, no waiting. Just good food, good wine, and the Amalfi Coast stretching out in every direction. What impressed us most was the flexibility. Our crew adapted effortlessly to whatever we wanted — whether that meant lingering in a cove a little longer, adjusting the route, or simply slowing down so we could soak it all in. Nothing felt scripted or rushed. For a milestone occasion, this was exactly the kind of experience we were hoping for. Highly recommend without hesitation — book the upgrade, you won’t regret it.
Great trip!

Unforgettable day from Positano to Capri

5.00Our 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!
5 stars!

5.00The 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
Great day!

5.00My 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 for the WIN...

5.00If 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.
