Private Boat Tour of Capri Island from Amalfi

From Amalfi’s pier "La Darsena" to the sun-bleached cliffs of Capri, the Private Boat Tour of Capri Island from Amalfi is an eight-hour, all-day passage through some of the Mediterranean’s most cinematic coastlines. Departing from Amalfi Port you’ll cruise the protected marine reserve of Punta Campanella, where sheer limestone cliffs drop into water the color of glass and Posidonia meadows ripple beneath the hull. The trip seats up to six people, making it a private, flexible way to see Capri’s signature sights: the Blue Grotto, the White Grotto, the Green Grotto, the faraglioni rock stacks, and the Great Natural Arch.

Skippers thread the boat through narrow grottos and around towering Faraglioni—three iconic limestone pillars that rise from the sea—while narrating local lore and pointing out the Punta Carena Lighthouse, a western high point visible from the water. Stops are planned for swimming and snorkeling in crystalline coves, including a stretch near the three Li Galli islands where the water is shallow, calm, and surprisingly warm. You’ll also tie up at Marina Piccola for a long seaside lunch at a traditional restaurant and a chance to explore Capri inland.

The Blue Grotto is an exclamation point on the itinerary: when conditions allow, small rowboats ferry guests into the cave and sunlight filtering through a submerged opening turns the interior a surreal, liquid blue (entry fee not included and access depends on weather and sea state). The tour’s flexible format lets the captain adapt the route for swell, wind, or your interests—more swimming, more views, or more time ashore. This trip is a standout in the Amalfi–Capri corridor because it pairs protected marine environments, dramatic karst geology, and easy access to exclusive bays that are otherwise reachable only by sea.

It’s ideal for small groups seeking privacy, photographers chasing late-afternoon light along the Faraglioni, and swimmers who want to plunge into emerald caverns like the Green Grotto.

Tours are subject to weather; the skipper makes final safety calls.

Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a hat, and water shoes for stepping in and out of small dinghies. Whether you want a relaxed day of seaside dining or a snorkel-rich exploration, this private charter hands you the coast on your terms. Groups are capped at maximum of 6 people, keeping the experience intimate and allowing the captain to tailor stops.

The operator can arrange champagne as Moet & Chandon or Veuve Clicquot on request. Cancellation policy asks for changes at least 24 hours before departure. Note: wheelchair users and non-swimmers are not allowed for safety; the skipper may alter plans to prioritize comfort and sea conditions.
