Perched at the gateway to the renowned Amalfi Coast, Sorrento offers the perfect opportunity to explore scenic shorelines by kayak. Meet your guide at Marina Grande, a charming fishing village that sits at the base of the limestone cliffs on which the Old Town of Sorrento stands. From here, you will paddle your kayak along shores lined with ancient Greek walls, the remains of grand Roman villas, and historic nymphaea – grottoes where ornate shrines were dedicated to the nymphs. See the Roman villa of Agrippa Postumo and its 19-meter cave. Continue to the promontory where you’ll find the Villa Pollio Felice – ruins of a luxurious Roman pavilion nearly 2,000 years old – and rocky cliffs embracing an emerald pool of seawater known as the Baths of Queen Giovanna. Stop at a beach for a refreshing dip in the sea before returning to Marina Grande.
Discover the majestic coastline of Sorrento during a kayaking excursion that reveals the remains of ancient villas built by wealthy Romans on these scenic shores.
