Small Group Sunset Boat Tour
A sunset boat & snorkeling tour from Amalfi to Praiano and back, admiring charming views on the Amalfi coastline as the sun sets over the horizon.
Location
Meeting point is in Amalfi at Darsena pier at 18:15, right in front of Piazza Flavio Gioia (the one where small private boats dock, not the one for public ferries).Please be on time for your departure.
Once everybody has jumped on board and had a little briefing about how you're going to spend the day, you will be ready to set off.
Not too far from the starting point, right after leaving the center of Amalfi, you will sail close to the Saint Andrew Grotto, a huge natural sea cave full of stalactites named after the patron saint of Amalfi (Andrea).
Then, once passed Duoglio and Santa Croce beaches, you will stop by the "Arc of Lovers", a natural rock arch created millions of years ago by the erosion of the sea whose shape recalls two elephants in the act of kissing. Up to not too long ago young couples used to get married on the top of it.
Cruise in front of the ancient fishermen village of Conca dei Marini, passing near the villa of Sophia Loren and seeing the historic hotel “Il Saraceno” located on La Vite Beach.
From there you will also have a stunning view of the Santa Rosa Monastery, a former convent now converted into a luxury hotel, once home of the Dominican nuns.
Once past the seaside of Conca dei Marini you will enter its western basin, where we will enjoy a beautiful view of Furore and Praiano villages and the islands of Li Galli and Capri, together with the well-known Faraglioni Rocks.
Sail around the cape of Praiano, where the captain will anchor for a break and you'll be able to swim or snorkel as the warm hues that light up the sky reflect off the shimmering waters.
