Enjoy Sorrento’s Cliffs from the Water

Sorrento sits high on a line of tuff cliffs above the Bay of Naples, and while the view from the town is beautiful, the most dramatic perspective is from the water looking back.

A town seen from below

As you set out from the marina, the full height of Sorrento’s cliffs rises above you, topped by hotels, gardens and the old town. Caves, inlets and the little harbours cut into the rock come into view, and you begin to understand how the town has always lived in relationship with the sea. It is a side of Sorrento that most visitors, looking out from the terraces above, never really see.

The perfect start to a day at sea

Leaving from Sorrento puts you within easy reach of Capri, the Sorrento Peninsula and the Amalfi Coast, so this first view is only the beginning.
