The excellent geographic location of the gulf of Napoli and the Island of Capri, besides the natural beauty and the mild temperatures throughout the year have turned Capri into a place desired by emperors, kings and princes since the Roman times. Since then until now, Capri has also been a place of interest for people of the international jet set, such as Maria Callas, Ava Gardner, Brigitte Bardot, and others that frequent this enigmatic island.
In terms of beaches, the spectacular coast of Capri offers its visitors its Mediterranean beauty, with its turquoise color waters and the radiant sun, hidden bays that can only be reached by boat, and rock terraces on the sea, making Capri one of the best beaches of Italy and probably the island with the most charming beaches in Europe.
WHERE TO STAY AND WHAT TO DO - HOTELS AND ACTIVITIES
This obviously means that you can find there the most luxurious hotels by the sea, with terraces over the Mediterranean, to small family hotels, more centric and inexpensive.
There are many places to visit in Capri, besides the beach. For instance, Villa Jovis is an ancient residence built by Emperor Tiberio to spend his last years, and it's a place that's worth a visit, or the Piazzetta, which is the nightlife center of the island.
Another one of its main attractions is the world famous Blue Grotto. It's 60 meters long and 25 meters wide, and you can get there only by boat to admire a spectacular world of colors and sensations, thanks to the solar light reflection inside the cove. Unfortunately, it's currently prohibited to swim in it.
HOW AND WHEN TO GO - WEATHER AND TRANSPORTATION
To get to Capri you must go to Napoli or Sorrento first, and to get to these two cities, you can find good offers online, generally with a stopover in Rome. From there, you can opt for the ferry or a hydroplane, which takes 80 and 40 minutes, respectively from Napoli, and 40 and 20 minutes, from Sorrento.
The season goes from June to August, and those are the best months to go, in terms of sun, although obviously these are the months when most tourists come to the island.
