Amalfi Coast

Boat Tour Along the Amalfi Coast

There is no better way to experience the Amalfi Coast than from the water. Towering limestone cliffs, hidden coves and pastel-coloured villages unfold in a panorama that is impossible to appreciate from the road alone. BlueKeys organises daily boat tours along the coast, from intimate sailing trips for two to lively group excursions that visit the Emerald Grotto and Li Galli islands.

Our Amalfi Coast boat tours depart from Amalfi harbour, Positano beach and Sorrento's Marina Piccola. Most itineraries follow the coastline westward past Praiano, Furore Fjord and Conca dei Marini before rounding the headland toward Positano. Along the way, skippers stop at secluded swimming spots where the water is a translucent turquoise that photographs never quite capture. Browse all our boat tours and coastal cruises to find the right itinerary for your group.

Choose between a shared group tour — typically six to twelve guests on a comfortable gozzo boat — or upgrade to a private boat charter where the itinerary is entirely yours. Private boats can anchor for lunch at a waterfront restaurant in Nerano, famous for its zucchini pasta, or continue onward to Capri for an afternoon on the island. Sunset cruises with prosecco and local appetisers are available from May through October.

BlueKeys partners with licensed, locally born skippers who know every sea cave, current and mooring along the coast. All boats carry safety equipment, snorkelling gear, fresh towels and a cooler with water and soft drinks. We handle the booking, the logistics and the weather contingency plan so you can simply step aboard and enjoy. Need a place to stay the night before? Find holiday apartments along the coast.

Boat tours are the single most popular activity on the Amalfi Coast, and for good reason. Whether you have half a day or a full day, getting out on the Tyrrhenian Sea transforms a holiday into something unforgettable. Combine your boat tour with a Capri day trip from Sorrento or book a private transfer from Naples airport to start your holiday stress-free.
