Cruising with Capitano Patrizio

Capitano Patrizio

Here is Captain Patrizio, ready to take you on a cruise along the hidden spots on the famous Amalfi Coast. As he explains in his brochure:

WELCOME TO THE COAST OF THE SIRENS

From mythology to spaghetti with zucchini

We leave from the port of Amalfi aboard our comfortable traditional boat, the ‘gozzo sorentino’...

‘O Sole Mio’

Hi - I am Patrizio Frederico and I have lived on the Amalfi Coast my entire life. For many years I have navigated the Mediterranean and beyond in motor yachts and sailing boats. I also lived for a while in the Caribbean Islands, sailing those waters.

Many large yachts anchor in our waters, as our guests, and often they taste only the top restaurants and most beautiful panoramas. My partners and I would like to offer these guests the possibility to really visit the deep soul of the divine Amalfi Coast, a place with a multitude of facets: the sea with tiny fishing towns, the grottos with caverns and waterfalls, springs, rivers, woods, ancient paths, castles, felci, ancient vines, olives, lemons and chestnut trees. To meet the shepherds still producing the local cheese.

Like the legend of the volpe pescatrice, the ‘fish fox’, holding in his mouth fish and diamonds, we would like to offer you the best products and show you the secrets of the Coast’s tradition and culture. Only those with profound knowledge of the territory, know.

A small glimpse into history: until about 100 years ago, the Amalfi Drive did not exist, and each village lived its own life independently, sustaining itself. This meant that the people developed many different agricultural activities, artesian crafts, keeping animals and fishing. All communications were by walking paths and staircases. Let’s imagine all the coastline like an enormous capillary system criss-crossed by staircases and paths.

So we would be happy to propose....

Guided excursion along the Coast in a small boat, imbarcazione sorrentina, to reach the coves and hidden villages.
Personalized inland excursion to the old pathways discovering panoramas, springs, woods, meeting the locals belonging to the past. 
We can help you to purchase local traditional products, from food to handcrafts, wine, virgin olive oil, cherry tomatoes and other vegetables and fruit.
Private dinners at private homes with local produce and typical music.
Consultation on the purchase and rental of niche and luxury real estate on the Coast.

We are happy to have given you, with only these few words, a different view of our Coast and to imagine its diversity. We wish you a wonderful stay.

                                                                                                - Captain Patrizio and partners.
