What to expect
You'll board at Sorrento port early and motor east toward Capri, hugging a dramatic limestone coastline. Once there, the boat glides past Marina Grande before heading to the grottoes—enter the Blue Grotto if conditions allow (extra fee), then cool off swimming in the Green Grotto's emerald shallows. You'll round Punta Carena's lighthouse, then make for Marina Piccola, Capri's quietest anchor, where you step ashore for three hours. Wander uphill into the village, grab lunch at a restaurant with a view, or stay by the water. On the return leg to Sorrento, you'll pass the famous Faraglioni rocks and stop at the White Grotto for a final swim or snorkel.
Good to know
Blue Grotto and any port fees in Capri are not included—settle these separately. Bring your passport. The boat rocks moderately; not suitable for spinal injuries, pregnancy, or poor cardiovascular health. Children under 18 cannot have alcohol. Infants sit on an adult's lap.
