About this experience
Skirt the stunning Amalfi coast, stopping to explore the most scenic stretches and villages, on this small-group day cruise from Positano. Drift leisurely along the southern Italian coast, marveling at the dramatic views. Travel by the whitewashed fishing village of Praiano, the narrow cove of the Furore fjord and Conca dei Marini, home to the shimmering green waters of the Emerald Grotto sea cave (entance depends on the wind situation). Stop intermittently to swim and snorkel, then enjoy free time in Amalfi or go up to Ravello (calculate 30min bus ride oneway). With a maximum of 12 people on board, you’ll enjoy an intimate experience.
