THE LANDSCAPE

Cliffs, Colourful Villages and Sea‑Carved Arches

The route threads past the colourful coastal hamlets — Conca dei Marini and Praiano among them — where villas, arches and defensive towers punctuate the cliffline, creating a cinematic coastal tableau.

THE ROUTE

Iconic Coastal Markers: Natural Arch and the Fjord of Furore

Expect a stop at the Natural Arch of lovers and a passage by the famed Fjord (Fiordo) of Furore — signature features of the Amalfi coastline that concentrate both geology and local lore into a few memorable minutes.

THE MOMENT

Golden‑Hour Views Toward Capri and the Li Galli Islands

As the sun drops, the captain steers offshore toward views of Capri and the Li Galli islands; guests toast the moment with Prosecco while photographing the coastline in the warm light.
