Amalfi Coast: Kayak Tour with Snorkeling and Grottoes Visit – Amalfi, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

Enjoy a relaxing kayak tour along the scenic Amalfi Coast. Stop to snorkel and explore some grottoes along the way.

Meet at the tour office to get your kayaks and equipment. Once you’ve put on our life jacket and adjusted the footrests on tour kayaks, you’ll be ready to set off to the west toward the Runghetiello Grotto.

For those who have never been in a kayak there will be a short introductory lesson on how to kayak and safety at sea.

The route will take us along Amalfi’s finest beaches as well as close to natural rock arches and into sea caves, giving us the opportunity to admire the old watch towers that dot the entire length of this coast.

Not too far from the starting point, you’ll kayak by the “Arc of Lovers”, a natural rock arch created millions of years ago by the erosion of the sea. It looks like two elephants kissing, and young couples used to get married on top of it until not too long ago.

A little later, you’ll paddle in front of the ancient fishing village of Conca dei Marini. Pass near the villa of Sophia Loren and seeing the historic hotel “Il Saraceno” located on La Vite Beach. Take in stunning views of the Santa Rosa Monastery, a former convent now converted into a luxury hotel.

Once past the seaside of Conca dei Marini, enter its western basin. From there, enjoy breathtaking views of the villages of Furore and Praiano and the islands of Li Galli and Capri, together with the famous Faraglioni Rocks.

Further inside this basin, visit the little Runghetiello Grotto. Admire this enchanting natural sea cave named after a local fish.

As you paddle along, pause at beaches reachable only by sea and have time to go snorkeling or swimming in crystal-clear waters.
