About the experience

Set off from Sorrento and discover the island of Capri like never before — by sea, in total freedom, aboard your own private motorboat. This full-day escape blends natural beauty, comfort, and island charm into one unforgettable experience, far from the crowds and perfectly tailored to your rhythm.

As you leave the Sorrento coast behind, the scenery opens onto the deep blues of the Mediterranean. The cliffs fade into the distance, and the silhouette of Capri slowly rises from the sea. You’ll cruise around the island’s coastline, admiring dramatic rock formations, hidden coves, and enchanting sea caves. Along the way, you’ll have time to swim in calm waters, sunbathe on deck, or simply take in the views — with the option to go ashore and explore the island on foot.

Your boat is equipped for a day of ease and pleasure: shaded lounging spaces, sunbeds, a freshwater shower, and a sound system for your favorite music. Cold drinks and a light aperitif are included on board. Your local skipper is there to guide the experience, adjusting the route to suit your pace and the sea conditions, while sharing insights into Capri’s secrets.

Whether you’re a couple, a family, or a small group of friends, this is the perfect way to experience Capri’s timeless magic — from the water, where it shines brightest.

    It was a pleasure from the moment we contacted Francesco. He was attentive at all times, even when it came to parking our car near the dock. Probably our best day in Italy, exploring the entire coast up to Positano. Francesco was always attentive to our requests, and the boat is fantastic for comfortable sailing. We will definitely return.

    Today was one of the best days of my trip in Italy because of our skipper Tony, he was great in the water, knew exactly where to take us and was a great tour guide. He was as kind to stop and let us take as many photos as we wanted and made sure we were always comfortable. Francesco was very responsive and had great communication and I would definitely recommend renting with him. Would definitely do it again!!!

    On our last day in Italy, we rented Francesco's boat to travel around the coast and explore Capri. Francesco was ready and waiting. He did a wonderful job of explaining the details to us and was responsive throughout our adventure. Unlike other tourists, who toured Capri with strangers, we were able to celebrate our 25th anniversary all by ourselves on the beautiful waters of the Mediterranean! Definitely a highlight of our entire 21 day trip!

    Francesco has been super kind to us, there has been a lot of communication by WhatsApp since I initially made a mistake and booked the boat from the wrong port. He worked with me to bring the boat to Capri and we had a wonderful day. I highly recommend him and his company.

    We had a great experience with this boat 18. July 2024. Took the boat around Capri and enjoyed the water and sun. Francesco was quick at answering our messages and was on time when delivering the boat. Everything went smoothly and I would recommend taking this boat as it has a comfortable deck and the possibility for shade. 10/10

    Francesco and his skipper were brilliant! They were really communicative throughout the whole booking process and helped me organise a beautiful day for my parents on their boat. I would 100% recommend them for anyone wanting to take a trip around the area. Overall a fantastic experience and truly lovely people, thanks again!

    Absolutely fantastic! We hired the boat with a skipper for the day and it was incredible. Francessco organised it and was so helpful and communicated quickly. He even arranged to buy us an infant life jacket for my baby! We went all around Capri with our skipper Carlo who was also wonderful, he showed us so many cool spots which we never would have found without a skipper - caves to swim through and viewpoints. Would definitely recommend if you’re considering a boat tour!

    Our host francesco was really good with the communication throughout the tour. We took a skipper and would recommend the same. The skipper showed us various places in capri. The boat was clean and the speakers were good. Would recommend as the whole experience was really good and worth the money.

Also thank his brother Claudio! Grazzie per tutti!

    Needs to present the contract in a multilingual form , otherwise it is lacking in legality, made me sign a legal contract in italian , as a tourist it is understandable to be able to understand what you are signing .

    We received a super friendly welcome, even though we were half an hour late due to traffic jams. Wonderful boat! Great day. We just didn't know that petrol prices were added to the rental price, so we had to pay an additional 180 euros. Our mistake, we should have read better.

    Francesco is a great host and his boat is truly amazing! It feels brand new and is really clean! He is an understanding and very kind person and this really contributed to a great day on the sea. The boat drove really wel and it felt like true freedom going out on Italian waters. Many thanks to Francesco and hopefully we’ll be able to book it again in the future!

    Francesco is very helpful and kind. He replied very quickly. When we arrived there was a minor issue with the boat we were supposed to get and we immediately received a different boat that was in great condition.

    Disappointed! Attention the boat of the announcement is not the same: certainly the model is similar, but the seniority, the engine as well as the quality is different from what is presented to us on the photos. Driving is therefore much less pleasant! In addition, the boat's birmini was broken, which prevented us from taking advantage of the boat's shadow... Thus, the advertised price becomes much too high for the boat on offer. Finally, the explanations given to make the most of our day were very meager: we had already sailed with another company and the instructions were detailed, we even had advice and must-see places to visit. This was not at all the case here: we had to manage on our own to visit the Amalfi Coast.

    Let me tell you about my boy Francesco. He is awesome! He responds EXTREMELY quickly. Even when we were on the water he would quickly text me back if I had ANY questions. I’m glad my first reservation did not work out, because we got to rent his bigger boat which handled the choppy, but beautiful, Mediterranean like a champ. We took the boat from his harbor ALL the way to Positano and back at a about 3400-4100 RPMs (ranged varied depending on water and other boat’s wakes) and still had a 1/4 tank of fuel left, meaning it’s very efficient. I highly recommend him. When we come back next year I will rent his boat again if he allows it.
