ITINERARY: Cruising near Amalfi, you'll pass beaches, sea caves, and ancient watchtowers, with chances to swim or snorkel in crystal-clear waters. Highlights along this stretch include the vast Saint Andrew’s Grotto, the striking Arc of Lovers, and the scenic village of Conca dei Marini, where you’ll spot Sophia Loren’s villa and the historic Il Saraceno hotel.
Duration: 40 minutes
The picturesque bay of Conca dei Marini opens into panoramic views of Furore, Praiano, and the islands of Li Galli and Capri, with a glimpse of the iconic Faraglioni Rocks. Here, you’ll stop near the Runghetiello Grotto, a charming little sea cave with a tiny beach — perfect for swimming or snorkeling. During the break, enjoy fresh fruit served on board with a selection of drinks, including prosecco, Limoncello, beer, and soft drinks.
Duration: 40 minutes
Nearby lies the dramatic Furore Fjord, Italy’s only natural fjord. Towering cliffs surround a narrow inlet, over which stretches a high bridge — the site of the international diving competition MarMeeting, where athletes from around the world plunge 28 meters into the sea below each July.
Duration: 20 minutes
Continuing along the coast, the boat cruises past the quiet village of Praiano, offering a close look at the Africana Grotto. Inside this larger sea cave, the water takes on an intense blue hue thanks to a unique play of light and underwater rock.
Duration: 20 minutes
As you cruise past Capo Sottile toward Positano, you’ll marvel at its colorful cliffside homes and beautiful beaches. A stop at La Porta, a peaceful, boat-access-only beach, offers another chance to swim or snorkel in uncrowded waters. During this break, relax and enjoy fresh fruit along with a variety of drinks, including prosecco, Limoncello, beer, and sodas.
