Comfortably located on the seaside near Naples and the Amalfi Coast, Salerno offers a good starting point for a boat tour to the area around the city. On a full-day boat tour from Salerno, you will have time to reach the Amalfi Coast or Capri, stop a few times for swimming and snorkeling and spend some hours visiting the towns by land.
Here's all you need to know about boat tours, one of the most enchanting outdoor activities in Salerno.
The Amalfi Coast is the most common destination for boat trips leaving from Salerno. Amalfi and Positano, the most known towns of the Amalfi Coast, are located just 15–20 kilometers away from Salerno. Therefore, they are the best destination for a boat tour.
Sail from Salerno toward Amalfi and Positano, admiring the cliffs dotted by small towns like Vietri sul Mare, Cetara, Maiori, Minori, Atrani, Conca dei Marini, the Fjord of Furore and Praiano. The boat tour will stop in Amalfi and Positano and you will have a few hours to discover the towns by land. Most boat tours are operated in small groups of up to 12 people.

Capri is the most popular island in the area. It is located in front of the western tip of the Amalfi Coast. Capri is a small island, but it offers a beautiful coastal landscape: cliffs, caves and blue crystalline waters surround the island.
Boat trips in groups are quite popular: you can find some options both for the Amalfi Coast and Capri. Boat tours are usually operated in small boats that can host up to 8-12 people. Therefore, even if the activity is a group activity, the number of participants is not very large, and you can relax and enjoy your boat excursion.
Private boat tours from Salerno offer a premium experience. You will get a boat and a skipper available just for you and the possibility to customize the itinerary as you wish, adding stops for swimming and snorkeling. Of course, private boat tours are more expensive, but they offer a better experience. Private tours are priced fixed per group: if your group is larger, the price per person will be less.
If you wish an entire boat for yourself, you can choose a boat rental. Make sure that you have the right skills and experience to drive the boat. The smaller boats do not require a driving license, but they require caution anyway. If you are unsure how to drive a boat, choose a private or group boat tour.
