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.

QUESTIONS

About the Sunset boat tour from Sorrento

The exact departure time depends on sunset, which shifts with the season. Generally we board 90 minutes before sunset so you're anchored in the perfect spot when it happens. In June we leave around 6:30 PM; in September around 5:30 PM. We'll confirm your exact time when you book.

2 to 3 hours total, including transfer time. The active cruising and aperitivo-at-anchor portion is about 2 hours.

One bottle of chilled Italian prosecco, a generous board with local cheeses (Caciotta, Provolone del Monaco), cured meats (prosciutto, salame), fresh focaccia, olives, and sparkling + still water. Dietary requests accommodated with notice.

It's one of our most-booked experiences for proposals and anniversaries. Tell us the occasion when you book and your captain will set the mood — champagne upgrade, flowers, personalized playlist all available on request.

Up to 10 guests. Price is per boat, not per person. Ideal for couples, small groups, and families.

If conditions are unsafe we offer free rescheduling or a full refund. You'll hear from us by early afternoon if we need to make changes.

Yes, we offer a sunset dinner upgrade with a full Italian dinner served onboard — multi-course, chef-prepared. Ask for pricing when booking.

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure for a full refund. We accept all major credit cards through Stripe.
