About this tour

What to expect
Your group boards at Sorrento and heads out along the coast at a relaxed pace. The boat stops several times—expect 30–45 minutes in the water each time, with snorkel gear and flotation ready. You'll see Positano stacked vertically against limestone; you can either stay aboard or hop ashore to wander its steep alleys and grab lunch. Capri's rugged outline appears next; the skipper points out sea stacks and grottoes. Between swims, you'll drift past fishermen's nets and abandoned quarries. The day ends with a slow return to Sorrento as light softens the water.
Good to know
