Sorrento Reviews

    Mariner 6.20 - RIB in Piano di Sorrento, Campania

    We were warmly greeted upon arrival and renter spoke great english which was unexpected but very helpful! All of the ladies in the office were welcoming, kind and helpful, provided lots of information on the area, what we could see and conditions to expect. The boat was in great shape and took us to Capri and to Fiordo di Crapolla for swimming, exploring and snorkeling. Navigating by sight was easy and the boat handled it all very well. One thing we wished would have been explained better was how to use the anchor, but we got it to work ok. Upon return, we were greeted by some guys who came on board and took us to gas up. Our gas bill was 40USD for the entire day of boating. Overall, this was an exceptional experience and an awesome adventure!!! Thank you so much for this opportunity :)

    Lancia Sorrentina 6 ( fast ) in Piano di Sorrento, Campania

    This is a great experience, if you get sea sick be careful, but if you want a small adventure, it’s amazing! You can stop in one of the hidden beaches and have a great day, restaurants can bring you food to the boat, or take you to the restaurant in small boats. Forget Capri and Positano, enjoy the amazing Sorrento Coast :)

    Airon Marine Master 25 Power Yacht for Adventurous People in Sorrento, Campania!

    Perfect boat to tour the beautiful island of Capri. Has enough power to get you where you need to be quickly, but is nimble and easy to manoeuvre. We took it around the island, in and around several stops, tied up for lunch on the island, and anchored off the coast in a small bay for a swim. All around great experience.

    Sal was a great skipper! He took us to many interesting and beautiful spots and then also to a great restaurant in Capri with a shuttle. We didn’t go to the blue grotto because there was a long line, but Sal took us to several other beautiful caves. Overall amazing experience and I’d recommend to anyone looking for a private boat experience!

    Motor Yacht Klase 50 in Sorrento, Italy

    Unforgettable experience!!! Our crew took us to spots you would never see with a normal tour or ferry. Incredible, once-in-a-lifetime birthday. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this to anyone thinking about renting a boat in Positano/Amalfi coast. You'll probably only be there once- might as well go all out!

    Motor Yacht Klase 50 in Sorrento, Italy

    The entire process was smooth and easy. Booking was confirmed quickly. The communication was never lacking and they were accommodating every step of the way. They tailored the day to include shopping on Capri, a fun lunch in Nerano, and so much sight seeing along the coast. They were armed with plenty of snacks, drinks, and towels! I would definitely book with them again! Captain Marco and first mate Andrea were professional, friendly, and accommodating.

Boating Guide - Sorrento

About Sorrento

On the southwest coast of Italy, an hour outside of Naples, is Sorrento, a seaside city of beautiful architecture, beaches, and boats. The water is an alluring blue and the houses scattered up the hillside add a pop of color to the rocky cliffs. It’s a popular tourist stop for travelers passing through the Campania region of Italy. There are lots of restaurants and cafes for stopping and enjoying delicious Italian cuisine while taking in the captivating view of the sea.

The best time of year to visit Sorrento depends on personal preference. If you’re looking to enjoy the warm sunshine and beach, visit in the summer. It’s crowded during the peak months of July and August, and June through early September can be uncomfortably hot. The official swimming season runs from mid-May through October, and visiting in late September and October can be a great time to have good weather and fewer crowds. The winter is a good time to find good deals on accommodation and have peace and quiet, but it’s too cold to enjoy the sea or work on your tan. While the Amalfi Coast and some surrounding towns shut down completely in the winter months, Sorrento does stay open.

To get to Sorrento, the easiest way is to fly into the Naples airport. From here there is a bus that departs for Sorrento several times daily.

You’ll explore these captivating caves in a small rowboat with an experienced guide. Many people report it as being one of their favorite experiences they had while exploring this part of Italy. The water in the sea cave glows sapphire blue and the enclosed, intimate setting of the cave will leave you in awe.
