Key highlights

Blue Grotto · Grotta dell'Amore · Grotta Verde · Grotta Bianca · Faraglioni · Marina Piccola · Via Camerelle shopping

Optional add-on — Lunch at Nerano Bay

Swap the Capri-port lunch for a return via Nerano Bay — a quiet cove on the Sorrento peninsula's south coast, beloved by locals for its seafood restaurants (Lo Scoglio, Conca del Sogno among them). Restaurants from €40-70 per person, paid direct. Best requested at booking — captain coordinates the table reservation. Available on Sorrento departures only (timing-friendly).

Before you buy…

For high season (June through September), book 3-4 weeks ahead — popular boats and dates fill quickly. Shoulder season (April-May, October) usually has availability with a week’s notice. Last-minute requests within 48 hours are welcome — we’ll do our best, but choice of boat may be limited.

The boat is yours for the day — tell us what matters most and we build the day around it. Specific coves, restaurants, photo spots, proposal moments, kids’ needs, celebration setups, onboard music, fresh flowers — all possible. Mention requests at booking and the captain will plan accordingly.

Yes — we love being part of the moment. We can arrange flowers, champagne, a custom playlist, a professional photographer onboard, or coordinate restaurant bookings ashore for a celebration dinner. Mention the occasion and any specific requests at booking — we’ll handle the rest discreetly so you can focus on the day.

Your captain assesses sea conditions the morning of your tour and calls by 8 AM if it’s unsafe to sail. You get a full refund or free reschedule — your choice. We never risk safety for the schedule.

Yes, two ways. Some boats include free hotel pickup — look for the “Pickup Included” badge in the fleet section above. For all other boats, we can organize a private transfer to the departure port at additional cost (we’ll quote it at booking based on your hotel location). Free pickup zone covers Sorrento, Sant’Agnello, and Piano di Sorrento.

Fuel is fully included. Port fees and mooring charges (paid when docking at Capri Marina Grande, Amalfi, Positano, or similar stops) are not included — they’re paid directly on site. Amount varies by port and season. We’ll confirm exact expected port fees at booking based on your itinerary and departure port.

Cancellation terms vary by boat. Each vessel in our fleet has its own policy set by the owner — typically free cancellation between 48 and 72 hours before tour, with reduced refund inside that window. The exact policy for the boat you’re booking is shown clearly at checkout before payment, so there are no surprises. Weather cancellation by the captain (unsafe sea conditions) is always a 100% refund or free reschedule.

Absolutely. All ages welcome. Life vests for children provided automatically. Some boats are more family-friendly than others (shaded cockpit, easy boarding, onboard WC) — tell us your party composition at booking and we’ll recommend the best match.
