About this tour
A three-day sailing adventure along Italy's Sorrentine and Amalfi coastlines, departing from the Sorrento area. You'll spend nights anchored off Capri and Amalfi, navigating between dramatic cliffside villages and secluded swimming spots. The itinerary balances practical sailing instruction with leisure—expect hands-on time at the helm, swims in sheltered bays, and meals cooked on board or sourced locally. A skipper guides throughout, handling navigation and mooring while you absorb the slower rhythm of Mediterranean sailing.

- Overnight mooring beneath Capri's lights
- Sail to Positano village, explore by local taxi boat
- Swim and snorkel in turquoise coves
- Sunset drinks anchored off Amalfi
- Learn basic sailing skills from experienced skipper
- Included lunch and dinner onboard
What to expect
Day one focuses on reaching Capri with time for orientation and a first swim. You'll assist with sail handling and basic vessel operation under the skipper's instruction—no prior experience needed. Nights are spent aboard at anchor, with gentle rock of the swell. Days two and three involve shorter passages between villages, allowing lengthy swimming and snorkelling breaks in protected waters. Meals are casual: packed lunches eaten on deck, dinners prepared galley-style or sourced ashore. The boat's rhythm dictates the pace—early starts, afternoon swims, unhurried evenings.
Good to know
Pack seasickness remedies if prone. Bring sun protection and a light layer for evening breezes. The boat operates year-round but spring and autumn offer optimal conditions. Spinal injuries, pregnancy, and cardiovascular concerns warrant medical clearance before booking. Tips are separate from the quoted price.
