About Amalfi Boat Tour
Amalfi Boat Tour is a family-run boat excursion company based in Maiori, one of the larger seaside towns on the Amalfi Coast. Founded and skippered by Carmine, a local captain who grew up on these waters, the company offers private and small-group boat trips departing from Maiori, Amalfi, and Positano to explore the coastline and the island of Capri.
Their fleet includes both traditional wooden gozzo boats and modern speedboats, accommodating groups from couples to small parties. Standard routes cover the highlights — Positano, the Emerald Grotto, Conca dei Marini, Furore Fjord, and the Li Galli islands — with longer full-day trips extending to Capri for a circumnavigation of the island with swimming stops at the Blue Grotto and Faraglioni. Carmine doubles as skipper and local guide, narrating the history and legends of each village and landmark along the way.
The business stands out for its personal, family-friendly approach. Carmine's local knowledge means he steers guests to the best swimming spots based on time of day, current, and crowd levels. The Maiori departure point is a practical advantage too — it's less congested than Amalfi or Positano harbours, making boarding smoother and giving guests a head start toward the eastern coast. Consistently high ratings on TripAdvisor and Yelp reflect the quality of the experience.
