Detailed itinerary

1

Start your excursion by meeting your captain and boat at the harbor in Castellammare Di Stabia.

2
Stop 2 Pass by

A mythical area of the Sorrentine coastline where legend says that Queen Giovanna met her lovers at the end of the 14th century. It is very picturesque and you can swim in between rocks to get to an open area with crystalline water and lush vegetation (it is usually a shady area without direct sunlight).

3

A tiny fishing village with a beach and some restaurants, small fishermen's houses, and beautiful views.

4
Stop 4 Pass by

Cala di Mitigliano is a wide and pleasant bay with a crystalline sea; the fantastic view of Capri and Punta Campanella makes this a place of enchanting beauty. On the right side you can see an ancient circular tower used in the past for the production of lime.

5

The point where the Sorrentine Peninsula merges into the Amalfi Coast. It is a nature reserve with breathtaking views and a 14th century tower which served as a lookout. The tower had a bell that was rung to warn of pirate invasions. This is probably how Punta Campanella (Bell Point) got its name.

6

The Bay of Ieranto is a rocky inlet between Punta Campanella and Punta Penna and is the gem of the Marine Protected Area. It can only be reached on foot or by boat. Of uncontaminated beauty, it is one of the most evocative places in Massa Lubrense.

7

A small fishing village on the Amalfi Coast and proud flyer of the "Blue Flag", which is awarded to various beaches under strict criteria, signifying high quality and cleanliness of the sea. Here you will have the opportunity to stop for a seaside lunch at one of the small, family operated restaurants that dot the beach. This is a village that you would not normally have the opportunity to see unless from a private boat.

8

The Crapolla Fjord is one of the most suggestive inlets on the coast of Massa Lubrense: in addition to being of great naturalistic interest, it holds visible traces of a past rich in history. It is a narrow and deep cove in the rock, gradually widening and ending with a beach as small as it is enchanting. In the western part of the inlet, the remains of a Roman villa are still visible. Before the beach, the ancient village preserves the remains of some Roman cisterns and buildings carved into the rock. They are the monazeni, structures also dating back to Roman times and still used today by local fishermen toshelter their boats and fishing gear.

9

Tordigliano's wonderful beach is one of the few wild and natural spots on the Amalfi coast perfect for swimming. The beach is a particularly popular destination for summertime camping and stargazing.

10
Stop 10 Pass by

A set of private islands off the coast of Positano where Ulysses heard the song of the sirens as he passed through. There is an underwater nature reserve in the middle of the archipelago and a beautiful view of Positano, as well as Capri, from both sides.

11

The view of Positano from the sea is one of the most famous views in the world. Cruise along the coastline and pass the world-renowned 5 star San Pietro Hotel, small hidden coves and beaches where you can stop for a swim off the boat if you would like, or spend some time on land exploring the village.
