The ferry offers comfortable seating, fresh sea air, and panoramic views of dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, and colorful villages rising from the sea. Whether you’re taking photos or simply enjoying the peaceful motion of the water, this journey is a highlight in itself.

Arrive & disembark: As you approach your destination, you’ll be greeted by one of the world’s most breathtaking views — Positano’s cascade of pastel houses or Sorrento’s dramatic cliffs.
