Leave the Marina Piccola Port at approximately 10:00am; guests can admire on the right the Marina Grande - ancient port of Sorrento, continuing to head to Sorrento you will see the ruins of the Roman villa of Senator Pollio, ruins dating back about 2000 years ago.
Marina di Puolo and Marina della Lobra - traditional fishing villages, are the next stops of the tour. A stop in Marina della Lobra will allow guests to enjoy a bath in crystal clear waters. The travel proceeds with Punta Campanella, geographical border between the Gulf of Naples and Gulf of Salerno. Passengers will then go across the marine park of the Bay of the Sirens in Punta Campanella. The following stop is the famous bay of Nerano to admire the large and imposing rocks of Cala Mitigliano which can be accessed by boat only; here guests can dive into the crystal clear waters, having as a background the amazing archipelago of Li Galli.
Greek mythology says that Li Galli is identified with the place where the sirens lived and bewitched the sailors in transit by making shipwreck on the rocks. The iconography of the sirens in Greek ancient figurative arts imagines them as half women, half bird – whilst medieval popular imagination represents them as half woman and half fish. The Greek sirens resembled more like a hen or a rooster (feathery sirens), hence the name "Li Galli" (in Italian vernacular means “the roosters”)From here you will enjoy the view of the whole Amalfi coast with a spectacular overlooking on Positano, Amalfi and Praiano.
After the bath the next stop is Positano, a popular holiday resort since the times of the Roman Empire. This amazing village perched on a lovely rocky beach welcomes visitors from the sea with thousand of bright-coloured tiny houses set among curvy stairs carved on a lush hill.
The Fornillo beach is our first stop in Positano where guests can choose to have lunch and taste mouth-watering specialties like the caprese salad made with fresh and genuine raw materials (lunch not included).
After lunch free time to explore the village and shopping in the local lovely boutiques and food shops.
