Where do I meet the boat in Positano?

Meet your captain at Spiaggia Grande, the main beach in Positano. A tender service takes you from the beach to your boat anchored just offshore. Most hotels in the old town are within short walking distance.

Yes, the Blue Grotto is included. Entry is subject to sea conditions and requires a separate €18 per person ticket payable on site. Your captain will advise based on weather.

How many people can join the tour?

What is the cancellation policy?

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure for a full refund. We accept all major credit cards through Stripe. No hidden fees.

Can I customize the itinerary?

Absolutely. It's your private boat. You can spend more time swimming, skip the Blue Grotto, explore the Fiordo di Furore — just tell us and we'll coordinate with your captain.
