When the Journey Becomes Part of the Vacation
The private boat route from Ischia to Positano typically takes just over one hour, but it can become a personalized mini‑cruise. Guests can request scenic stops, sail close to the Faraglioni of Capri, pause for a swim, or simply sip a drink onboard as the sun melts into the sea.
What sets this private sea transfer apart from other modes of transport—ferries, hydrofoils, cars, or buses—is the opportunity to fully enjoy every moment of the voyage. No chaos, no crowds, no noise. Just the sea, the coast, and you.
A Direct, Convenient, and Flexible Connection
