Sunset Boat Tour from Positano

Most BlueKeys sunset tours include prosecco or Aperol Spritz, local snacks — bruschetta, marinated anchovies, buffalo mozzarella bites — and seasonal fruit, all served aboard as you watch the coastline transform. Private sunset charters from Positano let you design your own evening: choose the route, the music and the menu. Some guests opt for a twilight dinner served on deck as the coast fades to silhouette; others prefer an active sunset swim followed by drinks at anchor off Praiano. Whatever you envision, your skipper will make it happen. Browse private boat options.

The return to Positano beach at dusk — lights twinkling on the hillside, the gentle hum of the engine through warm evening air — is one of those travel memories that stays with you. Many guests combine a sunset tour with a daytime boat trip around the Amalfi Coast or an excursion to Capri for a full day on the water. Small-group sunset tours (6–10 guests) start from around €60 per person; private charters start from €400 and can include champagne, flowers and a photographer for proposals and anniversaries.

Practical tips: book sunset tours at least 48 hours in advance as they sell out quickly in summer. Evening sea conditions are typically calmer than mornings. Bring a light jacket or cardigan — temperatures drop noticeably after sunset, especially on the return. Sandals you can get wet are recommended for boarding from the beach. The best months are June through September when skies are clear and the golden hour lasts longest.

All BlueKeys sunset boats carry running lights, full safety equipment and experienced, licensed skippers who have spent decades on this coast. We follow responsible boating practices — slow speeds near the coastline, no anchor drops on protected seagrass and no single-use plastics aboard.
