Whether you are looking for a romantic sunset cruise or a full-day family adventure, we provide the ultimate Mediterranean experience.

Luxury Fleet and Bespoke Onboard Services

Our selection of vessels for boat tours in Amalfi ranges from traditional wooden Gozzo boats, which offer a charming and authentic Italian experience, to high-performance luxury motor yachts equipped with modern amenities. Every charter is designed to be a turnkey service, typically including a professional English-speaking skipper, fuel for the designated route, and an open bar with Prosecco, soft drinks, and local snacks. Many of our premium packages also feature snorkeling gear and towels, ensuring you have everything needed for a day of relaxation. We pride ourselves on maintaining a fleet that meets the highest standards of safety and aesthetic elegance for our discerning international clientele.

Iconic Routes and Hidden Coastal Gems

Setting sail from the Marina Coppola in Amalfi opens up a world of legendary coastal landmarks. Most tours head west toward the colorful village of Positano, passing by the enchanting town of Conca dei Marini and the famous Furore Fjord. You will have the opportunity to visit the Emerald Grotto and swim in the crystal-clear waters surrounding the Li Galli islands, once believed to be the home of the sirens. For those seeking a longer excursion, a circumnavigation of Capri including a visit to the Blue Grotto and the Faraglioni rock formations is a highly recommended itinerary that showcases the very best of the Neapolitan Gulf.

Pricing, Logistics, and Seamless Booking

The cost of a private boat tour in Amalfi is influenced by the size of the vessel, the duration of the trip, and the specific time of year. Prices generally start from €800 for a half-day tour on a classic Gozzo and can exceed €3,500 for a full day on a large luxury yacht. These rates usually cover the captain's fee and basic refreshments, though VAT and docking fees in certain ports like Capri may be extra. To secure your preferred date during the busy summer months, we recommend booking at least four to six weeks in advance. Our streamlined digital booking process ensures all contracts and payments are handled securely and efficiently.

Best Time to Visit and Travel Tips

The ideal season for boat tours on the Amalfi Coast runs from May through September, when the weather is consistently warm and the sea is calm. July and August are the peak months, offering vibrant atmosphere but also higher traffic at popular moorings. For a more tranquil experience, the 'shoulder' months of June and September provide perfect temperatures and fewer crowds. To elevate your Italian holiday, many guests choose to combine their maritime adventure with one of our luxury villa rentals in Ravello or Amalfi, allowing for a seamless transition from a day on the water to a private evening overlooking the cliffs.

FAQ

What is the typical duration of boat tours in Amalfi?

Most guests opt for a full-day tour lasting approximately 7 to 8 hours, which allows enough time to reach Positano or Capri with multiple swimming stops. However, we also offer 4-hour half-day excursions and 2-hour sunset cruises for those with limited time who still wish to enjoy the coastal views.

Can we customize the itinerary of our private charter?

Absolutely. One of the primary benefits of our private boat tours is the flexibility to tailor the route to your preferences. You can spend more time swimming in secluded bays, enjoy a long lunch at a beachfront restaurant in Nerano, or focus on photographing the iconic architecture of the coastal villages.

Are food and drinks included in the price?

Standard tours include a selection of complimentary beverages such as water, soft drinks, beer, and Prosecco, along with light snacks. For a more gourmet experience, we can arrange for professional catering on board or book a table for you at an exclusive seaside restaurant accessible only by boat.

What happens in case of bad weather?

Safety is our absolute priority. If the skipper determines that sea conditions are unsafe for your scheduled tour, we will first attempt to reschedule your booking to the next available date. If rescheduling is not possible due to your travel plans, a full refund is typically provided according to our weather policy.
