Itinerary
As the golden light begins to kiss the coastline, your journey starts from the historic port of Amalfi. You’ll step aboard our elegant speedboat, where a friendly crew welcomes you into an intimate sunset experience. Before setting off, we’ll guide you through a brief yet important safety briefing, ensuring you're relaxed and ready to enjoy every moment.
As the sun begins its golden descent, our unforgettable sunset cruise sets sail from Amalfi, the historic heart of the coast and a former Maritime Republic, now one of Italy’s most captivating seaside villages. As we set sail, you’ll enjoy a breathtaking view of Amalfi from the sea — a picture-perfect blend of whitewashed houses, ancient churches, and lemon-scented air rising from the cliffs. Soon after departure, we’ll approach one of the coast’s most enchanting natural wonders: the Natural Arch, also known as the “Lovers’ Arch.” According to a local legend, two young lovers once found refuge beneath this rock formation, their passion so strong that nature itself shaped the arch to shelter them forever. It’s said that sailing beneath the arch brings good fortune to those in love.
As we cruise along the coastline, the landscape becomes even more dramatic — terraced cliffs, vibrant bougainvillea, and hidden coves appear like secrets waiting to be discovered. Soon, we reach the charming seaside village of Conca dei Marini, perched delicately on a cliffside. From the boat, you'll spot the iconic white dome of the Church of San Pancrazio, standing proudly against the green mountains and blue sea. This stretch of coast is rich in history and beauty — you’ll glide past Saracen watchtowers, remnants of ancient defenses, and tiny fishermen’s homes clinging to the rocks. Conca is a place where time seems to slow down, where nature and history exist in perfect harmony — and from our boat, you’ll have the best seat in the house to soak it all in.
As we leave Conca dei Marini behind, the coastline reveals yet another hidden treasure — the "Fiordo di Furore", one of the Amalfi Coast’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders. From the boat, you’ll witness a narrow gorge carved by time, where a tiny beach lies nestled between towering cliffs, and a graceful stone bridge arches high above. This is Italy’s only fjord, and it's nothing short of cinematic. In fact, it's been the set of many films and love stories.
Continuing on, we reach the peaceful village of Praiano, where whitewashed houses cling to the cliffs and the majolica dome of San Gennaro Church glows in the sun. Nearby lies Cala della Gavitella, one of the few beaches on the Amalfi Coast that enjoys sun until sunset, with stunning turquoise waters and views of Capri. This is where we make our first swim and snorkeling stop — the perfect chance to dive into crystal-clear waters and fully enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean. You’ll also spot the historic Torre a Mare, a medieval watchtower now home to art exhibitions, standing proudly above the shoreline. Just beyond is the enchanting Marina di Praia, a small hidden cove framed by dramatic cliffs. Once a quiet fishing harbor, it now hosts beach clubs and seaside restaurants — a perfect snapshot of timeless coastal life.
As the sky turns to shades of pink and gold, the view opens up to the dazzling vertical village of Positano, perhaps the most iconic image of the Amalfi Coast. From the sea, it appears as a cascade of vibrant houses clinging to steep cliffs, framed by lush greenery and the endless blue of the Mediterranean. As we cruise closer, you'll spot the Church of Santa Maria Assunta, with its radiant ceramic dome, and the lively marina where pastel-colored boats float gently in the bay. Here, we'll pause for a few moments — the perfect opportunity to sip a glass of Prosecco and take a stunning photo from our boat with Positano as your backdrop. A memory worth framing.

Wonderful experience! Our captains were very knowledgeable about the coast and its rich history. Boat was beautiful, clean and spacious. We would absolutely book this boat and captain again
Amalfi town is beautiful, however, is too small and you can easily go around in two hours. This tour is 100% recommended because it takes you around all the coast, giving you a very different experience than just walking or taking the buses. Naomi, our guide, and Marco, the captain, were amazing company, always very attentive to our needs. The group is also very small, so you kind of feel that is basically private. Meeting point and punctuality were also great. They contact you with the exact meeting point (even with pictures), so that makes it easy and also makes you feel safe. I recommend you take this trip without thinking about it.
It was a great experience treated well by both Naomi and Marco An experience to be in your good memories
Our captain and Michaela were fantastic. It was easy to find them at the dock and the boat was beautiful and spacious enough for 10 people. We had drinks and snacks and got a full tour of Positano and the island. Michael was amazing and took photos of each couple at every stop, which have been some of our favorite photos of the trip! Great for couples, friends, or a family outing.
We booked a private sunset tour from Amalfi to Positano and back, and it was the absolute highlight of our trip. Sharing a beautiful classic boat with just two other couples felt incredibly luxurious and relaxed compared to the crowded ferries.What truly made the evening unforgettable was the exceptional service from our crew, Alessandro and Chiara. Chiara was a wonderful hostess and a local expert, guiding us past amazing sights like the Devil’s Cave, Furore Fjord, Emerald Grotto, Marina di Praia, and the Li Galli islands. She also acted as our personal photographer, capturing stunning photos of us throughout the night. Our captain, Alessandro, navigated flawlessly and timed a perfect, refreshing swim along the coast.Both went entirely out of their way to make our 2.5-year-old child feel comfortable and safe, allowing us to fully relax. Sip ice-cold prosecco against the backdrop of a romantic Positano sunset was magical, and the surprise celebration they threw for us at the end was the perfect finishing touch.The booking, communication, and pacing were flawless. If you want a stress-free, romantic sunset experience, ask for Alessandro and Chiara!
Absolutely a must-do, to see the coast from the sea and with the sunlight at sunset. Michela, our guide, and Donato, our captain, were professional and helpful, but also friendly and fun. If I were to return to the coast, I would definitely do this experience again.
We had a fantastic time. Our host Maria was awesome. She made sure everybody had a good time. We received drinks, snacks, and she took pictures for everyone .The captain was also amazing. He had a fantastic sound system so we were rocking out on the boat, including the captain. We stopped early on so we could all get in the water for a bit. The scenery was amazing! Highly recommend.
Miky and Donato were very friendly and took the time to stop and take pictures for us. To see Amalfi, Praiano, and Positano from the coast is breathtaking. Book this tour! You won’t regret it!
We had a magical time on the sunset cruise from Amalfi to Positano with Sea Horse Amalfi Coast cruise. Our tour guide Noemi was so friendly and knowledgeable about the places along the Coast. Our advance communications went well. We met at the agreed-upon spot for our group on time, and set sail about 15 minutes later. The cruise stopped for awhile for guests who wanted to swim, and we were also served complimentary Prosecco sparking wine. All the views along the Coast were absolutely epic and magnificent. A sunset cruise was the one request my spouse had for our trip, and thankfully this did not disappoint - it was a dream come true!
Very fun and romantic. Noemi was a great guide and made it interesting. Lots of history, highlight was a stop for swimming and photo opportunities in front of Positano thank you
