From the turquoise perspective of the Tyrrhenian Sea, the Amalfi Coast reads like a carved coastline of cliffs, secret coves and myth. This private, full‑day voyage traces that line: departing from Positano’s pier, the itinerary threads past limestone cliffs, pauses at the Sirens’ isle of Li Galli for swimming and snorkeling, drops anchor in Marina del Cantone for a seaside lunch in Nerano, then explores grottoed inlets and the Punta Campanella marine reserve before returning as the day softens into golden hour.

The Siren’s Call — Li Galli Islands
