After enjoying free transfers from your accommodation in Sorrento to the marina, your adventure begins. As you leave Sorrento, you’ll cruise along the Sorrentine Peninsula, with incredible views of the cliffs and the Bay of Naples. On your way to Capri, you’ll be treated to scenic views of the coast, including charming coastal villages and hidden beaches. The highlight as you approach Capri will be the sight of the dramatic Faraglioni rocks, towering sea stacks rising out of the turquoise waters. You’ll also see the island’s famous sea caves and rugged cliffs from the boat.
Once in Capri, you’ll complete a full circuit of the island. The beauty of Capri is truly unparalleled as you pass through picturesque spots like the White Grotto, the Green Grotto, and the famous Blue Grotto, where you can enjoy the magical blue light as it illuminates the water.
Time will be set aside for a visit to the Blue Grotto, where you can marvel at the glowing water inside the cave. As you cruise along the island’s coastline, you’ll also enjoy panoramic views of the lush hills and cliffs, and have a chance to see the luxury villas perched on the cliffsides.
After exploring the coast, you’ll have free time to explore Capri on foot. The town of Capri offers charming narrow streets filled with luxury boutiques and cafés. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit the famous Piazzetta, a lively square offering views of the sea and an array of cafés to relax in. For more stunning views, you can visit the Gardens of Augustus, where you can enjoy breathtaking panoramas of the Faraglioni rocks and the island's coastline.
