THE DAY

What to expect on your Sunset boat tour from Sorrento

A magical evening cruise along the Sorrento Peninsula with chilled prosecco, light aperitivo, and breathtaking sunset views over the Bay of Naples — Vesuvius on one side, Capri on the horizon, golden light everywhere.

The most romantic two hours of your trip to Italy. Board your private boat at Marina Piccola in Sorrento as the afternoon heat fades, and head out into the Bay of Naples just as the sun begins to drop.

Your captain takes you along the coast toward the Punta della Campanella — the southernmost tip of the Sorrento Peninsula, where the Amalfi Coast begins. Capri sits in the distance, turning pink in the evening light.

Onboard: chilled prosecco, a board of Italian cheeses and cured meats, fresh focaccia, and sparkling water. Music from your own playlist if you bring it — or your captain's curated Italian classics.

As the sun drops, you'll find a sheltered spot to drop anchor. This is the moment people photograph for the rest of their lives.

Insider tip: book 90 minutes before sunset.
Sunset times shift by the month — in June the sun sets around 8:40 PM, in September around 7:20 PM. We'll confirm the exact departure time when you book, so you're anchored in the perfect spot when the sky turns gold.
