Cave of Smeraldo, Positano

It's OK, but very gimmicky. I was expecting a to go out into the open water and be taken to it, but you are just loaded into a small floating vessel (definitely not a boat). It is easy to get to, stairs and a lift and the blue colours are lovely. But if you've been into any caves before, St Micheal’s in Gibraltar for example then it's not worth it. Children might like it as it's something different. It was €7 euros and again like most of these attractions you can end up paying double as they are always asking for a tip 😏 I haven't got a problem with tipping for good reason and service but for a 15 minutes it just wasn't our thing.

Really nice location, the cave is actually pretty nice. When you go you have to pay 8 euros and you will yo with a little boat and a guide. The guide is not that professional probably because it’s repeating the same things 100 times for day. He’s trying to say it both in Italian and English but mmm no. Usually there is line. To go down and up to the cave there is an elevator. There is also a stop of the bus in front.

I did not expect to stop here and in fact, had limited knowledge as to what exactly a grotto was. I went with the flow, I didn’t even expect to be in southern Italy so why not indulge in ALL the experience on offer?!? It was only 8 bucks and it was thrilling! I cannot swim and to see how deep that grotto was and the paddle boat we were in, I was holding on for dear life 😂 the water was so clear you could see the bottom! The sailor was very calm and gentle with the paddling and explained the age and some history. The stalactites and stalagmites were incredible! The emerald water was magical and experience was absolutely worth more than the 8 euros plus tip 🙏🏽 Thank you for a unique experience… what a beautiful Italian treat ❤️

Good experience but it’s only the sun reflecting on the water to give it colour. Tickets are only 7 euro. There is an elevator to go down so there is very less stairs to climb. Getting in and out of the boat is fairly easy.

The entrance to the cave is - very conveniently - right at the main ‚Amalfi coast‘ road. There are a few parking spaces, which was fine now in February, but i assume during the high season parking will be a challenge here. Entrance fee was 7€. An elevator takes you then down to sea level, where you‘ll enter the cave. There you‘ll wait till a boat picks you up. The cave is not huge, but the 15min boat ride is very nice. The sunlight turns parts of the water turcquoise, very beautiful. Nice stop along the way, if you have some time to spare.
