Positano Day Charters
The Li Galli islands. Laurito beach. The town seen from the sea, the way it was always meant to be.
Our Ahoy Approved Guide
Positano boat charters give you the place behind the photograph. From the water, the town stacks upward in a way no road-bound perspective can capture. The cliffs are taller, the colours sharper, and the places worth reaching - Nureyev's islands, the coves that only exist at sea level - are suddenly right there.

Highlights
The spots worth reaching that you can only get to by sea.
Swimming
Spiaggia Grande
A short walk west of Spiaggia Grande, Fornillo is the quieter, more local alternative accessible only on foot or by sea. Da Ferdinando is the go-to for a long, lazy seafood lunch far from the main beach crowds.
Beach Club
Fornillo Beach
A short walk west of Spiaggia Grande, Fornillo is the quieter, more local alternative accessible only on foot or by sea. Da Ferdinando is the go-to for a long, lazy seafood lunch far from the main beach crowds.
Anchorage
Li Galli Islands
Three tiny rocky islets — La Gallo Lungo, La Castelluccia, and La Rotonda — a few miles offshore from Positano. According to Greek myth, the Sirens that lured Odysseus lived here. Crystal-clear water for swimming, accessible only by sea.
Landmark
Santa Maria Assunta
Positano's Byzantine-domed church, its hand-painted majolica tiles visible from far out to sea. Inside is a 13th-century Black Madonna icon. Best appreciated from the water, where the dome dominates the hillside silhouette.
Beach Club
On the Rocks (Villa Treville)
An ultra-exclusive beach club set into the cliffs of Villa Treville, accessible only by sea. Dramatic terraced rock platforms drop into turquoise water, with private sunbeds and waiter service. One of the most cinematic settings on the Amalfi Coast.
Anchorage
Baia di Ieranto
A wild, protected bay at the tip of the Punta Campanella nature reserve, accessible only by boat. The water is spectacularly clear with visibility to the seabed. One of the most pristine swimming spots on the entire coast.
