Discover Positano and Amalfi by Boat
Once a thriving empire, Pompeii was devastated by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD when 30 feet of volcanic ash and pumice stone blanketed the city.
Spend the day in the beautiful waters of the Sorrento and Amalfi coast and be rewarded with a fresh perspective on this well-visited part of Italy.
The fun begins as you board the boat at the port of Piano di Sorrento for a scenic ride down the coast while you admire the villages nestled among the mountainous backdrop.
Along the way to Amalfi you will see many points of interest including Marina Grande, an ancient fishing village; a stunning natural waterfall; the ruins of a Roman villa; Li Galli, the small archipelago rumored to be the home of enchantress sirens; the Bay of Ieranto; the beach of Nerano; the town of Praiano; the famed Emerald Grotto; and the natural gorge of the Fiordo di Furore.
Take advantage of opportunities to swim and snorkel then visit Amalfi to check out the ancient Maritime Republic. Of course, no tour of the area is complete without a stop in Positano, commonly referred to as the pearl of the Amalfi Coast.
Then its back on the boat to raise a glass of limoncello during happy hour as you sail back to port.
