Day itinerary

1
09:00 · Departure from Positano Marina
Meet your captain at the harbour jetty (look for the blue Wanderlust flag). Safety briefing, then we head out past the colourful cliffside houses.
2
10:00 · Li Galli Islands — snorkel stop
Anchor at the private archipelago once owned by Rudolf Nureyev. Snorkel in gin-clear water; spot sea bass, octopus and ancient ruins just below the surface.
3
13:00 · Onboard lunch near Furore Fjord
Your captain prepares fresh antipasti, bruschetta and charcuterie at anchor. Prosecco and regional white wine served. Swim from the boat after lunch.
4
15:00 · Amalfi town — one hour ashore
Explore the cathedral, browse the ceramic shops, grab a limoncello. The boat waits at the harbour while you explore at your own pace.
5
17:00 · Sunset return to Positano
Sail back along the coast at golden hour with a glass of wine in hand. The view of Positano from the sea at sunset is one of the world's great sights.

"The best travel experience of my life — and I've been on dozens of tours. Our captain was brilliant and the lunch was extraordinary. We added the travel insurance at checkout and it genuinely saved us when our flight home was delayed. Will book again."

"Booked as a honeymoon treat. The level of service was extraordinary — private boat, jaw-dropping scenery, best Italian food we've ever had. The insurance quote widget is seamless too. We felt totally covered."

"Family of 6 including kids. The children loved snorkelling at the grottos, the adults loved the prosecco and sunset. Completely worth every penny. Already planning to come back next summer."
