Capri, Procida, Ischia

Capri

With its wild cliffs plunging into the blue water below, you can understand why Emperor Tiberius decided to live here rather than Rome. (You can decide for yourself whether the many lecherous things he is accused of doing on Capri are true.) Learn how to get to Capri at the ferry section of the transportation page. Wikivoyage's page also has lots of information, including hotel listings and details about the Blue Grotto.

What to Do

    • Grotta Azzurra (Blue Grotto) - various motor boats connect you between the Marina Grande and the mouth of this wonderous cave, which sparkles with an unworldly light blue light. You typically pay a separate rower to take you in, although after hours or during the off-season you can swim in (technically illegal but nobody's watching). A cheaper way of getting to the cave entrance is to take the bus from Anacapri's "Piazza del Cimitero," a 5 min walk from the main town square. You can also walk the ~1 hour from Anacapri's Piazza Diaz: take via Cava and via Lo Pozzo to reach the path, which passes Villa Damecuta, one of Tiberius's ruined villas, a good place for a picnic.
    • Monte Solaro - Anacapri has a chair lift that takes you to the highest point on the island (~€7.50-10, open Mar-Oct 9:30-4:30, Nov-Feb 9:30-3, www.seggioviamontesolaro.it); you can also hike up and/or down, passing the 14th century hermitage of Santa Maria Cetrella (the hike up begins at via Capodimonte, near Villa San Michele)
    • Villa Jovis - Tiberius's ruined palace near the east side of the island, awesome view although the ruins are fairly, well, ruined, €2, open 9 until 1 hour before sunset, 081-837-4549, www.villajovis.it The walk between Capri town and Villa Jovis is beautiful, although mostly uphill; take via Le Botteghe from the Piazetta and follow the signs for Villa Jovis.
    • Hiking - There are some great hikes on Capri:

Capri to Faraglioni and Arco Naturale

A beautiful 1 hour footpath between Arco Naturale (stone arch) and i Faraglioni (sea stacks): From the Piazetta in Capri town, go down via Vittorio Emanuele to via Camerelle to via Tragara, which leads to the Belvedere Tragara looking over the Faraglioni. Head down the nearby walkway (via Faraglioni which turns into via Pizzolungo); you will soon pass the steep beach access road (you can detour here if you want to go to water). Continuing past Villa Malaparte (a famous pink-red villa on Punto Massullo), up and down several stairs to the Grotta Matromania (a cavern/Roman temple). Keep on heading up the stairs to the Grotelle restaurant. At the restaurant, head right, where stairs lead down to the Arco Naturale (going left, down via Matermania, takes you back to the Piazetta). You can also turn off via Matermania to via Tiberio, to head up to Villa Jovis. You can also do the hike in reverse, which is generally easier (as it spreads out the climbing): from the Piazetta head down via Le Botteghe, following signs for the Arco Naturale; once you reach Grotelle restaurant just do the loop in reverse. (In 2016 the Arco Naturale was "under construction" but it re-opened in May 2017.)

      • Anacapri to Migliara. 45 min, easy walk through relatively rural countryside to a beautiful lookout; from via Caposcuro near Monte Solaro chair lift, head south; the street turns into via Migliara and ends at the cliffs. Magical at sunset.
      • Anacapri to Marina Grande. Heading the other way on via Caposcuro leads to a series of 881 stairs (the Scala Fenicia) hugging the cliff, leading down to the Marina Grande.
      • Short walks from Capri town. 1) From the Santo Stefano church on the Piazetta, go to the top of the church steps, and take via Madre Serafina on the right, leading to via Castello and the Belvedere Cannone. 2) From the Piazetta head down the main street of Vittorio Emanuele as it turns into Federico Serena; turning left on viale Matteoti/via Certosa leads to olive groves and the 14th century Certosa di San Giacomo monestary (081-837-6218, 9-2, closed Mon); turning right leads to the Giardini di Augusto terraced gardens (open dawn-dusk, free) and the hairpin path to the Marina Piccola. 3) Follow the first part of the Faraglioni hike, above, to the Belvedere Tragara.
      • Also see Grotta Azzurra, Monte Solaro, Villa Jovis, and Faro (above and below). Look for the "Isola di Capri Walks" map; some of the walks are described on this page.
    • Villa San Michele - Roman sculptures dot Swedish doctor Axel Munthe's 20th century estate near Anacapri with stunning views (€5, 9-5, www.sanmichele.org), which hosts concerts in the summer.
    • San Michele Church - in Anacapri, has cool majolica floor depicting the expulsion from Paradise.
    • Faro (Punta Carena) - on the far southwest corner of the island, a place to get away from it all and enjoy the sunset. Free and private beaches, pool, and small restaurants nearby. Can reach it from Anacapri's Piazza del Cimitero bus stop. Also the start of the Sentiero dei Fortini (Fortress Walk), a relatively flat, uncrowded, 3 hr walk past 5 ruined coastal forts and water access at Punta Campetiello to Punta dell'Arcera (near the Blue Grotto).
    • Shopping - both Capri and Anacapri have an embarrassment of designer brands and cute, cheesy Capri souvenirs.
    • Wine - Carla Capalbo recommends the Vinicola Tiberio winery in Anacapri, via Trieste e Trento 28, 081-837-1261, www.tiberiocapri.it
    • Nightlife - Especially in the summer, Capri is known for its jet-setting, party-all-night atmosphere. Underground at via Orlandi 259 in Anacapri and BaraOnda at via Roma 8 in Capri are recommended by Let's Go. Capri town's Piazetta becomes a beautiful, less-crowded place to have a passagiata (leisurely stroll) at night.
