What to expect

  1. Molo Manfredi
    Pass by
    Departing from the lively port of Salerno, your cruise begins with an unforgettable panorama as the boat glides along one of the world’s most spectacular coastlines. The journey unfolds as a continuous sequence of postcard-perfect scenery, charming villages, and crystal-clear waters.
  2. Vietri sul Mare
    Pass by
    The first coastal views reveal Vietri sul Mare, famous worldwide for its hand-painted ceramics and colorful domes. From the water you’ll admire its pastel houses cascading down the hills and the shimmering ceramic tiles that have decorated churches and palaces for centuries.
  3. Cetara
    Pass by
    Cruising south, you pass Cetara, one of the coast’s most authentic villages. Known for its traditional anchovy fishing and the famous colatura di alici, Cetara offers a glimpse of the Amalfi Coast’s seafaring soul, framed by watchtowers and quiet beaches.
  4. Erchie
    30m
    Near the secluded bay of Erchie, the boat slows for your first swimming stop. Here you can dive into crystal-clear waters, float beneath towering cliffs, or simply relax on deck as the Mediterranean sparkles around you.
  5. Praiano
    Pass by
    As the cruise continues, you’ll admire the vertical village of Praiano, followed by the dramatic natural wonder of the Furore Fjord — a deep gorge carved by the sea, considered one of the coast’s most photographed landscapes.
  6. Positano
    Pass by
    Approaching Positano, the coastline reaches its most iconic form: pastel houses stacked on steep cliffs, narrow stairways, hidden beaches and the unmistakable silhouette of Santa Maria Assunta’s dome. This is the heart of the Amalfi Coast’s visual magic.
  7. Amalfi
    2h
    If you choose the Amalfi Stop Option, the boat docks in the historic maritime republic of Amalfi, where you’ll enjoy free time to explore:

    The majestic Cathedral of Saint Andrew
    Lively piazzas and seaside cafés
    Boutique shops and artisan paper stores
    The picturesque waterfront promenade

    If you choose the Classic Cruise with Swim & Lunch Option, Amalfi is admired entirely from the sea, offering exceptional photo opportunities and a panoramic perspective, without a land stop.
  8. Molo Manfredi
    Pass by
    Before returning, the captain selects another scenic cove for a final swimming stop, giving you one last immersion in the coast’s turquoise waters before the relaxed cruise back to Salerno in the late afternoon.
