Marina Grande - Antico Borgo Marinaro
Boarding in Marina Grande, the ancient fishing village of Sorrento, an authentic and picturesque place to start your day at sea. Between colorful houses, fishing boats and views of Mount Vesuvius, you will board your private boat, cozy and comfortable.

Bagni Regina Giovanna
Leaving the marina, you will skirt the cliff to the Baths of Queen Joan, one of the most picturesque places in the area. From the boat you can admire a spectacular natural pool enclosed between high rock walls, connected to the open sea by an arch dug over time by the waves. Here you will also find the remains of an ancient Roman Villa, which make the atmosphere even more special. Depending on the sea conditions, the skipper may slow down to allow you to take incredible photos.
Pass by without stopping
Marina di Puolo
Continuing along the coast, you will reach Marina di Puolo, a small fishing village overlooking a quiet bay. The houses just a few steps from the water, the moored boats and the view of Mount Vesuvius create a typically Mediterranean picture. From the boat you can enjoy the view and relax on the sun lounger. This stretch is perfect for those looking for calm, clear water and a simple and authentic atmosphere, away from the crowds. A great place to really start feeling the slow pace of the day.

Sorrento Coast
Sailing south, the coast opens up into a succession of cliffs, coves, lemon groves and terraces overlooking the sea: it is the Sorrento Coast in its greatest glory. From the boat you can admire ancient villas, small villages set in the rock and coves accessible only by sea. The skipper will show you the most striking spots, slowing down so you can take pictures or just enjoy the view from the deck. Thanks to the comfort of the boat, you can choose whether to stay in the shade or in the sun, sipping a cold drink while the landscape flows in front of you.
Pass by without stopping
Massa Lubrense
Arriving in the Massa Lubrense area, the landscape becomes wilder and more uncontaminated. The cliffs get higher, the vegetation thicker and the sea even bluer. This stretch of coast is perfect for those who love nature and want to get away from the beaten track. The skipper can suggest small bays where you can stop to swim in crystal clear waters, away from the crowds. Between dives, you can relax on the bow cushions, enjoy a snack on board and enjoy the silence broken only by the sound of the sea.
Pass by without stopping
Punta Campanella
The navigation continues to Punta Campanella, the promontory that separates the Gulf of Naples from the Gulf of Salerno. According to legend, here stood a temple dedicated to the goddess Athena, and even today it is a place rich in charm and history. From the boat you can enjoy the spectacular view of Capri on one side and the Amalfi Coast on the other. The waters are deep and deep blue. This is one of the places where you really feel the magic of the Mediterranean and the strength of the landscape.
Pass by without stopping
Marina del Cantone
The route will then take you to Marina del Cantone, the famous bay of Nerano, known for its crystal clear sea and seaside restaurants. Here you can choose whether to stop for a regenerating dip or, on request, stop for lunch in one of the typical places reachable directly from the pier. The clear water and gently sloping seabed make this bay perfect for swimming and relaxing. Meanwhile, on board you will always have cold drinks, snacks and beach towels available, to live the experience in maximum comfort.
Pass by without stopping
Li Galli
Continuing towards the Amalfi Coast, you will reach the archipelago of Li Galli, a small group of private islands, shrouded in the myth of the mermaids who, according to legend, enchanted sailors. Even if you cannot disembark, the view from the sea is spectacular: a deep blue sea surrounding these rocky and fascinating islands. The skipper can stop nearby to allow you to swim in one of the most iconic stretches of sea on the entire coast. A moment to live calmly, maybe lying in the bow to enjoy the sun and silence

Positano
The tour culminates with the arrival in Positano, the “vertical pearl” of the Amalfi Coast. From the sea you can admire the colorful houses climbing the mountain and the famous main beach. The skipper will accompany you near the landing pier to allow you to go ashore and enjoy free time among alleys, artisan boutiques and romantic views. Once the visit is over, you will return on board for the return sailing to Sorrento, with the sun setting on the coast and the feeling of having lived a very special day.

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Positano.
How much does Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast cost?
+
Prices start at $1,430 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Positano usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Positano is not rushed.
Is Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Positano, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Positano can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Positano and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Boat Tour to Discover the Amalfi Coast start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Positano within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Positano?
+
On Outty we rank every Positano experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cooking class with Pasta, mozzarella and Tiramisu with wine, Amalfi : Prepare fresh pasta, mozzarella and tiramisu with wine, Ravioli & Tagliatelle Cooking Class at a Local's Home in Positano. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Positano?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Positano?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
