Let’s start your private boat tour;
we will sail along the Sorrento Coast, passing through the most beautiful places in our country; we will pass near the fishimg village of the marina grande, which once was the only access road to Sorrento; going further we will pass by the baths of Queen Giovanna, (where it’s possible to see the ruins of an ancient Roman residence; construction dating back to the 1st century BC, which first was the residence of the Roman senator Pollio Felice and between 1350 and 1450 the summer residence of Giovanna d'Angiò, Queen of Naples.) it will then be the turn of “Puolo” where we will admire the beautiful villa of the first true Italian shipowner Achille Lauro; Sorrento ends exactly here , and another small town begins, MassaLubrense. We will than change route, based on the chosen destination, means Capri or the Amalfi coast.
Private boat destination Capri
After sailing for about 20 minutes in the open sea, we will reach the most famous island in the world, Capri. We will admire the jump of Tiberius, on top of which are the ruins of Villa Jovis; we will skirt the tourist port of Capri, until we reach the blue grotto. Here, you can decide whether to stop and visit it or continue on the tour. Going forward we will skirt the west side of the island, Anacapri, passing by the Lighthouse (the second most important lighthouse in Italy) and then the Green Grotto. The fantastic color of the water will enchant you. It will therefore be time to take a nice bath! Well ,let's drop anchor and enjoy the sun and the sea, and if you wish, we'll dock on the island, to enjoy a lunch in a seaside restaurant and maybe go shopping in the center. We will schedule on the spot, the return time to continue our boat tour. We still have some beauties to see… for example the Faraglioni; and maybe we stop to take another swim near the White Grotto and admire its huge natural stalactites and stalagmites. The boat tour of the island of Capri is about to come to an end but we still have time on the way back, so let's enjoy the sun on the horizon, perhaps sipping a glass of Italian sparkling wine and listening to good music.
Private boat to the Amalfi Coast
….Have you chosen the Amalfi coast as your destination? Get comfortable I'll explain what we can do together.
The journey will be the same up to MassaLubrense then ... .. we arrive at the point where the two gulfs meet, the Gulf of Naples and that of Salerno.
Our excursion to the Amalfi coast comes to life, we veer to the left and the first thing we admire is the bay of Ieranto, a wonderful natural reserve, and than Nerano, a small seaside village famous for its excellent food like the "spaghetti alla nerano" .
We continue the boat tour, on our route there is a small islet called Isca, better known by the name "De filippo island", (a famous actor of the Neapolitan theater). We then point the bow towards the open sea and head to the island of "Li Galli", a beautiful archipelago consisting of three islets located about 3 miles from Positano. The island was once owned by the famous Russian dancer Rudolf Nureyev. Shall We stop? Anchor in this area is forbidden, to avoid ruining the seabed, but we will still have the opportunity to take a nice swim.
When we leave our destination will be Amalfi, lie down and enjoy the walk.
Once in Amalfi, look how beautiful the neo-Gothic cathedral of Sant’Andrea is, from the sea or if you wish, we can land for the visit.
Back on board we sail along the coast returning back to Positano. We will pass through the small towns of the coast, from Conca dei Marini to the fjord of Furore, (seat of the world diving competitions), then we will see Praiano and finally we will reach Positano. Just like in Capri, you have the opportunity to go down and visit the town and also, if you want you can stop and enjoy a lunch in a beach restaurant ...
What about another stop for swimming? Fornillo's beach is just a stone's throw away, let's drop anchor and jump into the sea.
The boat tour of the coast is coming to an end but the journey back is still long. Lie down in the bow and enjoy the sail, maybe if we are lucky we can also see a group of dolphins greeting us
These are just some of the tours that My Sorrento Holiday offers, contact us and we will decide the itinerary together. Renting a private boat and visiting Positano and Amalfi from the sea is an unforgettable experience
