The Amalfi Coast, from the sea
Most visitors see the Amalfi Coast from a bus window, stuck on a single cliff road. You will see it the way the old seafaring republic of Amalfi saw it for centuries: from the water, where every village opens up in front of you, stacked in pastel colours between the lemon terraces and the sea.
Your yacht, your crew, your day
For the whole day, Antonella IV is yours alone, with the warm wood and elegant lines of Italian yachting's golden age. The captain knows every bay, cove and story along this coast, and the hostess looks after you from the welcome drink to the last swim. No strangers, no crowded benches: three cabins with three private bathrooms, an air-conditioned saloon, a shaded aft deck, a sun pad at the bow and a flybridge with the best view on the coast.
The quiet side of the coast
Salerno sits at the eastern end of the Amalfi Coast, the side most tourists never reach. You glide past Vietri sul Mare, whose hand-painted ceramics have been made here since the 1400s, and Cetara, the fishermen's village of tuna and colatura di alici. Below the cape of Capo d'Orso comes your first swim, then Cavallo Morto, a small beach you can only reach by boat. Then Maiori, Minori and Atrani, Italy's smallest town, and finally Amalfi itself: weather and moorings permitting, you can step ashore for lunch and a walk.

Questions about Antonella IV
How long is the private Amalfi Coast yacht cruise from Salerno?
A full day: you board Antonella IV at 11:00 at Pontili Ventura, Via Porto 47, Salerno, and you are back by 18:00. That leaves time for swim stops, the villages from the sea and an optional stop ashore in Amalfi.

Why start an Amalfi Coast boat tour from Salerno?
Salerno sits at the quiet eastern end of the Amalfi Coast, a short walk from its train station, so it is easy to reach and less crowded than leaving from Positano or Amalfi. From the port you are straight on the coast most tourists never see from the sea.
Can we swim at Cavallo Morto beach?
Yes, from the yacht. Cavallo Morto is a small beach under the cliffs between Erchie and Maiori that can only be reached by sea, and its bay is the second swim stop. Whether you can also step onto the beach depends on the access rules of the day: the captain decides on the spot.

Guests on board
“Traveling with Pasquale and Michela was a wonderful experience: the boat was spotless, the hospitality was excellent (they also speak English), and the guide was extraordinary. I recommend consulting Pasquale for advice on the itinerary: his experience was invaluable for us. Thanks again, Pasquale and Michela.”“I spent a day sailing with my friends, Pasquale and his wife. We toured the Amalfi Coast to celebrate my birthday. Everything was wonderful, a beautiful boat, the crew was tidy and clean, kind and helpful, and it was a great time. On board, you can enjoy excellent homemade Italian food, complemented by the friendliness of Pasquale and his wife. The boat was spacious and well-organized. Highly recommended.”“A fantastic cruise with the worthy Captain Pasquale. Abundant and varied breakfasts and lunches, cooked with passion and love.
