Discover Li Galli and Capri from Amalfi
A full-day voyage aboard a traditional gozzo, from the protected coves of Li Galli to the legendary shores of Capri.
This Capri and Li Galli boat tour from Amalfi takes you across some of the most celebrated waters in the Mediterranean, combining protected marine areas, iconic rock formations, and free exploration time on one of Italy's most famous islands. The journey unfolds aboard a classic wooden gozzo, setting the tone for an authentic southern Italian sea experience. Difficulty is rated easy, making this suitable for a wide range of travellers.
The route traces the coastline south from Amalfi before heading out to Capri, passing through the Punta Campanella Marine Protected Area on the way. This stretch of sea is known for its exceptional water clarity and rich underwater environment, offering ideal conditions for swimming and snorkelling. The transition from the rugged Amalfi cliffs to the open blue expanse of the Tyrrhenian Sea is one of the highlights of the outbound leg.
On the return journey, the crew prepares a surprise for guests before the final stop near Li Galli, a cluster of private islets that also fall within a Marine Protected Area. The islets, historically associated with the mythological sirens of Greek legend, sit in sheltered waters perfect for a last swim before heading back to port. The full loop covers two of the most celebrated destinations along this stretch of the Italian coastline in a single day.
Throughout the day the skipper and crew manage navigation and logistics, allowing guests to focus entirely on the landscape, the water, and the experience. Free time in Capri allows independent exploration of the island's lanes, viewpoints, and waterfront, with no set itinerary imposed. The pace is unhurried, and the format suits both first-time visitors and those returning to the coast who want to see it from the sea.
