Exclusive Itineraries in Sorrento Peninsula, Capri and Amalfi Coast

A tour of the most beautiful places of the Campania region is an unrepeatable experience, especially if you explore the wonderful Sorrentine Peninsula, Capri, and Amalfi Coast. A private boat tour is useful to fully enjoy these iconic destinations and have an intimate, personalized, and relaxing experience. This article will cover everything you need to know about the main highlights of a boat trip along these unique and world-famous destinations.

The starting point: the Sorrentine Peninsula

Sorrento is considered the ideal starting point for many boat excursions due to its strategic position and proximity to the towns of Amalfi, Positano, and Capri. The city stands out for its imposing cliffs and crystalline water where to enjoy sea sport activities. Before leaving for a private boat tour, you can visit Sorrento’s historic alleys, the main cathedral, the St Francis Cloister, and taste the famous limoncello in the typical local shops.

Sailing towards Capri

The Island of Capri is easily reachable from Sorrento thanks to the scheduled ferries of local companies, but you need to go to the ticket offices in advance to avoid the massive queues of tourists. During a private Capri boat trip you will have the opportunity to admire the coast from a unique perspective.

The Island of Capri between luxury and history

Capri is a must-see in Campania. This well-known island is always crowded with tourists. Everyone wants to visit its places of greatest interest such as Mount Solaro, the Blue Grotto, and the Gardens of Augustus. Capri is also rich in hidden grottos and beaches that are accessible only by sea and that makes these places exclusive and unusually quiet destinations.

The Blue Grotto

A sea grotto famous for its deep, shining blue hues, the Blue Grotto is among the main attractions of Capri. Exploring this grotto is an unforgettable experience, but you need to book it in advance due to the heavy influx of tourists.

The Faraglioni

The Faraglioni are the most famous symbol of Capri, such that they are portrayed everywhere, from t-shirts or bags to magnets and postcards. They are three sea rocks sticking out of the Mediterranean and an incredible wonder of nature. Sailing around the Faraglioni is a highly requested experience to fully enjoy a visit of the island. 

Marina Piccola and Marina Grande Ports

The lively Marina Piccola and Marina Grande are the two ports of the island, crossroads of tourists from all over the world. Once moored, it is important not to miss the fashion shops, the typical cobbled streets, and Piazza Umberto I, Capri’s main square known worldwide as “la piazzetta”.

Anacapri

A Capri excursion must include a stop to Anacapri, a town located on the upper part of the island that offers a breathtaking view over Capri and is easily reachable thanks to internal connections. From Anacapri you can reach Mount Solaro, the highest peak of Capri. The cobbled streets are lined with luxury boutiques, typical restaurants, and a much quieter atmosphere than the frenetic center of Capri.

Not to be missed

The Amalfi Coast is another exclusive destination and can be reached after visiting Capri. 

Punta Campanella

Punta Campanella is located at one end of the Sorrentine Peninsula and is the first stop not to be missed. It is a nature reserve where you can snorkel or dive surrounded by an uncontaminated natural environment.

Li Galli Islands

Positano: the crown jewel of the Amalfi Coast

Positano is among the must-see destinations on the Amalfi Coast and is worth a stop. The place is characterized by pastel color houses perched on the hill that seem to fall sheer to the sea. Its crowded, narrow streets and steps offer enchanting views at every corner.

Discover Positano’s beaches

With its numerous beach clubs and hidden coves reachable by sea, you will be spoilt for choice. Spiaggia Grande beach and Fornillo beach are just two examples for a quiet stop.

Amalfi between history and culture

Amalfi is also an exclusive destination and is easily reachable during a Positano boat tour. This ancient maritime republic is a mix of history and natural beauty. The Cathedral of St Andrew and the Cloister of Paradise are worth a stop.

The Mill Valley

Hiking lovers cannot miss a walk to the Mill Valley of Amalfi. It is an inspiring walking route that crosses ancient mills, waterfalls, and wild nature, offering an unforgettable experience.
