Sorrento/Positano/Amalfi

We are cruising this summer and will be tendered at Sorrento for 2 days. On the first day we wanted to go by ferry from Sorrento to Positano and have a wander round, then get another ferry on to Amalfi? Then either take the bus back, or go by sea from Amalfi straight back to Sorrento. Has anyone any experience of doing it this way at all? I have been trying to research it online but am getting very confused by the various ferry/hydrofoil websites and there is also some very conflicting information from various travel sites.

Any advice or experiences welcomed. Thanks

We spent time in Capri and Positano this past August/September and used the ferry system from Naples to Capri and from Capri to Positano. The ferry from Capri went to Amalfi before going to Positano. We went to Sorrento for the day from Positano using the bus system and tried to take the ferry back but we missed the last ferry. The ferry system is easy to use, but you will have to look at the schedule. Remember the ferries do not run if the weather is bad so make sure you have a back up plan. The ferry only takes cash, so keep that in mind in your planning. If you would like to see pictures check out my site

You can see the timetables for the ferries on either of these two sites:
