Detailed itinerary

1

Set sail from Positano at 2:00 PM with a small group of up to 12 guests and admire the town’s dramatic cliffs and colorful houses from the sea as you cruise toward Capri.

We suggest reaching our meeting point at Spiaggia Grande in Positano just 10 minutes priorit the departure.

You will admire the village of Marina Grande, Capri’s main port, and its colourful houses, shops, and boats from the comfort of the Gozzo boat.

Stop 3

Your first stop will be at the iconic Blue Grotto, Capri’s most famous sea cave, renowned for its surreal electric-blue light created by sunlight filtering through a natural underwater opening, making the water glow with a magical intensity. (Please note: entrance ticket not included; the visit is subject to sea and weather conditions.)

Visiting the Blue Grotto is not always possible because the opening of the cave depends on weather and sea conditions. Our boat will stop at the entrance of the cave, and from there you will pass onto a small rowing boat, managed by the Cooperativa Battellieri di Capri, the only ones that allow entry into the cave. You can purchase tickets for the Blue Grotto directly on site. In high season, the queue at the entrance is very long; for this reason, the decision to wait to enter will be at your discretion.

You will pass through the Punta Carena and its Lighthouse, which is located at the southwestern end of the island of Capri.
