Kayak Tour on the Amalfi Coast

For more experienced paddlers, BlueKeys arranges half-day and full-day kayaking expeditions covering greater distances along the coast, including sections accessible only in calm conditions. These tours typically include a packed lunch at a hidden beach, snorkelling in protected marine areas and stretches of paddle that reveal the coastline from perspectives unavailable even from a boat. Kayaking is an excellent complement to other activities on the Amalfi Coast: combine a morning paddle with an afternoon boat trip to Capri or a sunset cruise from Positano for a perfect full day on the water. After the kayak, the gelaterie and trattorias of Positano's main beach are the ideal reward. Find accommodation near Positano.

What to bring: a swimsuit, reef-safe sunscreen, water shoes, sunglasses with a strap and a waterproof phone pouch. All guides provide kayaks, paddles, life jackets and wetsuits if the water is cool. Water and snacks are included. Half-day group tours start from approximately €55 to 75 per person; full-day expeditions from €100. The best months are May to June and September to October when seas are calmer, temperatures are comfortable and morning departures enjoy reliably settled conditions.

Safety is paramount on BlueKeys kayak tours. All guides are certified sea kayaking instructors with first-aid training. Before departure you receive a safety briefing and paddling technique coaching. Tours are cancelled or rerouted in poor sea conditions. BlueKeys kayak operators are committed to leaving the coast as they find it: no collecting of marine life, no touching of cave formations and paddle paths that respect nesting birds on cliff ledges. The privilege of accessing these extraordinary places comes with the responsibility to protect them.
