Boat tours
Tour to Capri, and the Amalfi Coast by sea
Positano was a fishing village on the sea, and its position makes it very advantageous for those who love the sea. Located half an hour from Amalfi about an hour by boat from Capri , you can organize wonderful days exploring all the best places you have always dreamed of seeing. By boat you can spend a day on the Amalfi Coast to visit Amalfi, Minori, Maiori and the Emerald Grotto. Although the main attraction would still be the island of Capri.
In Positano you will find several companies that offer private tours to local visitors. The costs could be relatively high as the cost of living in general, being the place considered a luxury destination.
But we have built this website especially for those who have a limited budget and therefore we recommend taking the hydrofoils that depart regularly from the Spiaggia Grande di Positano from 10.00 to 17.00 and arrive at the Marina Grande of Capri and have a cost of around 24 Euros for a single ride.
Land excursions by car, bus, train
There are many interesting places to visit that can only be reached on wheels, such as Pompeii, which is the most famous archaeological site in the world. Taking the local bus from Positano to Sorrento (SITA), then change and take the train (Vesuviana) from Sorrento to Pompeii. With the local bus you can also visit the Amalfi Coast and reach enchanting places such as Ravello which is located about 6 km in the mountains far from the sea, you can admire the gardens that are located in the wonderful villas of Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone, and enjoy breathtaking views unique in the world. You can consult the train and bus timetables on the page How to arrive How get in
Public transport and especially buses are particularly crowded in the summer. If you have a car it would be much better, and you could move more freely, even if there would be the problem of parking. The Mandara Garage parking has a greater number of spaces and is located in the central area of Positano, however we recommend that you call and agree first at Address: Viale Pasitea, 82, 84017 Positano SA Telefono: 089 875646.
Another option would be the taxis that you will find along via Pasitea or the chauffeurs with driver who, in addition to taking you to the places you want, also give customers information about the various places and make agreed prices. you see taxi
