Seeing Positano from the sea at sunset, its pastel houses lighting up one by one down the cliff, is one of the finest sights on the Amalfi Coast. This shared boat ride leaves Spiaggia Grande in the late afternoon.
What you do

- Cruise towards the Li Galli islands or towards Praiano, depending on the sea.
- Swim stop in a quiet cove, conditions permitting.
- Prosecco, soft drinks and water as the sun sets, then back past the illuminated village.
Who it is for
Couples, friends and families who want a special end to the day without paying for a private boat. It is a relaxed activity suitable for all ages.
What to bring
