What we will do  – Amalfi Kayak Tour

We will leave Minori at 10:00 am, but we will meet 10 minutes earlier so that we can get to know each other and have a briefing on the activity and the use of the kayak.
The first stop on our itinerary will be at the Norman Tower, built at the time to protect the place from raids by Saracen pirates.. We will then move on to the Acquachiara Beach where we can admire the Sulfur Cave, a small sea cave where a spring of sulphurous water with beneficial properties gushes out.

The next stop will take us to our main destination, the Pandora’s Cave, a true natural jewel. We will observe the rock formations around the cave and kayak into it one by one, exploring the interior of the cave for about 20 minutes.
We will then arrive at Cala Bellavaia Beach, accessible only by sea, where we will stop for about 1 hour.
Here we can snorkel or simply swim in the clear waters of this small cove surrounded by high cliffs. Before departing, we will enjoy an aperitif on the beach with lemon spritz and fresh fruit (included).

At this point we will return back to the starting point. The kayak route is 7 km long in total.

The duration of the excursion is 3½ hours.

Tour Plan

Maiori (Pandora’s Grotto)

Norman Tower

We pass by Maiori's Norman Tower, a mighty defensive bastion that protected the town from attacks from the sea, especially by Saracen pirates. Its construction is dated between 1250 and 1300 and since then it has been a characteristic element of Maiori's landscape to the point of being immortalised in several paintings.

Sulfur Cave - KayakinAmalfi Kayak Tour

We will visit the Sulfur Cave, a tiny grotto located right after the Norman Tower. Here from rock flows a sulfur water source that is considered miraculous for its good effects to the skin care. Local people used to drink it with some lemon juice to reduce its smell or just have a bath in the natural swimming pole inside the cave.

Maiori, Pandora's Grotto

We will see the rock formations that make Pandora Cave a pristine natural gem. Safely we'll enter the cave, one at a time and under the supervision of the guide

Dead Horse Beach

Dead Horse Beach

We will stop by Maiori's Dead Horse Beach fo a break. The name is the child of several stories. The most credited one has it that the beach was the place where, starting in the 1800s, the bodies of equines torn apart by work along the mule tracks of the Amalfi coast were thrown. Snorkelling equipment will also be available for those who want to see the beauty hidden in the water, and an aperitif with snacks and fresh fruit to relax on the beach.

    My friend and I had an incredible time on the kayak tour with Alessio and Emanuele. They were both so friendly and knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire tour. Paddling along the coastline was a breathtaking experience – we got to see the stunning cliffs, hidden coves, and quaint fishing villages from a unique perspective. The highlight of the tour was definitely exploring a secret sea cave that we would have never found on our own. We also enjoyed taking a break on a quiet beach to have some snacks and a swim.

    J’adore le kayak et je voulais essayer quelque chose de différent des tours habituels. J’ai trouvé ce tour sur internet et je l’ai réservé avec ma femme. C’était une expérience fantastique, pleine de surprises et d’émotions. Le tour était un mélange d’aventure, d’histoire, de nature et de romance.

    El tour en kayak fue una experiencia maravillosa, bien organizado
    Una experiencia maravillosa, para repetir sin duda! El tour en kayak fue divertido y relajante, el guía muy simpático y competente. Visitamos la cueva Pandora y la cueva Sulfurea, admirando los paisajes impresionantes de la costa. La parada en la playa del Caballo Muerto fue la guinda del pastel, con el snorkel, el descanso y el aperitivo a base de lemon spritz y fruta fresca. Recomiendo este tour a todos los que quieran vivir una aventura inolvidable!

    Best tour on Amalfi, well organized
    This tour was by far the best experience we had on our Amalfi Coast vacation. Well organised, it is structured in stages where we stopped at each stage to listen to the explanations of Alessio, a local guide and expert kayaker, who took care of us throughout the journey. We visited a stunning cave and relaxed at a nearby beach before heading back. Alessio also took care of making sure we caught the ferry back to our accommodation on time. Simply extraordinary!

    A super relaxing day kayaking
    We had a fantastic time on the tour, the guide was phenomenal, he gave us explanations of every place we visited and we even stopped at a nice quiet beach for a break where we were offered some limoncello. Very typical and of great quality, I would absolutely do it again

    View from the water
    This kayaking trip was one of the best ways to experience the Amalfi coast. Our guide (and owner of the company) had everything we neeeded to keep our phones and supplies dry. We had aperitif on a secluded beach and explored a grotto. Our guide shared pertinient facts about the coastal views and history of the area.

    A great time!
    The kayaking tour was beautiful, well-priced, and a great experience! My mom and I had tons of fun, loved the grapes and peach tea drink (neither of us drink alcohol), and felt personally attended to the entire time. Both of our guides spoke English and were wonderful. We never felt rushed and got to see small schools of fish with the snorkeling gear they provide at the beach we were guided to. You do need to be moderately athletic, but as long as you are reasonably in shape, making it to the spots on the tour should not be an issue. Plus, it makes it more rewarding when you get to the cool caves and beautiful beaches. I would definitely recommend taking this tour!
