Imagine gliding along the sparkling waters of Italy’s most famed coastline, with the gentle wind in your hair and breathtaking views all around. That’s what you get with the Shared Tour in the Amalfi Coast aboard the Apreamare 10, offered by Pascia Charter. It’s a four-hour journey designed to showcase the coast’s most picture-perfect spots, all with the comfort of a small group and a relaxed pace.
This tour is ideal for travelers seeking a balance of sightseeing, swimming, and local charm without the hassle of organizing every detail yourself. We love how it combines scenic drives with authentic experiences like an aperitif in Positano, but one thing to keep in mind is that it’s a fairly structured half-day — perfect if your schedule allows but maybe too short if you’re craving a full-day adventure. It’s best suited for those who want a taste of the coast’s highlights in a comfortable, intimate setting.

Exploring the Amalfi Coast on Water: What to Expect
The Amalfi Coast’s reputation for stunning natural beauty is well-earned. Its rugged cliffs, colorful villages, and hidden coves have attracted visitors for centuries. This boat tour offers a front-row seat to these breathtaking sights, all from the comfort of a well-maintained vessel. We found that it’s a great way to cover a lot of ground without tiring your legs or battling traffic — especially considering the narrow, winding roads here can be a challenge.

The Itinerary Breakdown
The tour starts with pick-up from one of three convenient locations — Maiori, Amalfi, or Minori — giving you flexibility based on where you’re staying. Once on board, the captain sets the course for a series of carefully curated stops, each lasting roughly 10 minutes, with a few longer segments for swimming and Positano.
Minori provides a strategic starting point, and the first scenic drive offers a chance to admire the coast’s lush landscape and colorful towns from the water. The Marmorata Waterfall stop is a visual highlight, revealing a rugged, nature-filled scene that’s less crowded than the main towns — a perfect photo op. Then, the tour moves on to Atrani, a tiny but charming fishing village offering authentic Italian seaside charm.
In Amalfi, the famed cathedral and bustling streets come into view, but the boat view offers a more relaxed perspective. The secret stop remains a bit of a mystery, adding intrigue, and gives you a chance to photograph some less accessible spots. The visit to Conca dei Marini includes a swimming stop, giving you a refreshing dip in clear waters, a highlight for many guests.
The Furore Fjord is another memorable feature — a dramatic, narrow inlet with a picturesque bridge, perfect for photos. Praiano and Positano are the tour’s crown jewels: Positano’s colorful cliffside buildings are just as stunning from the water, and the longer stop here allows time for swimming, photos, or simply soaking in the view.
The Experience of the Stops
Each stop is carefully chosen to show different facets of the coast — from natural beauty to iconic towns. The scenic drives between stops offer sweeping vistas that are worth a camera’s click, with many guests noting how the boat’s windows and open deck position make for fantastic photo opportunities. Plus, the small group size means you won’t feel rushed, and the crew is happy to share stories and tips, making the experience more enriching.
Swimming & Relaxation
While the tour isn’t solely about swimming, the 20-minute swim stop at Conca dei Marini gets high praise. The waters here are calm and clear, perfect for a quick dip to cool off and unwind. Many reviews mention how refreshing it is after a busy morning exploring nearby towns or beaches.
