Capri by boat — the Faraglioni loop
Two hours, three grottoes, one kiss under the rock arch — the small-boat tour that justifies its price.
What you see
Faraglioni stacks (the arch in the middle — Stella — is wide enough to pass through), Punta Carena lighthouse, Grotta Verde (less famous than the Blue Grotto and you can swim in it), Marina Piccola for an ice cream stop.
Cooperativa Battellieri Capresi at Marina Grande operates regulated tours; private skippers wait at the end of the pier. Lunch on board is extra (~€30/head); not required.
Where to stay
