A low sun glints off Tyrrhenian swells as the boat slips from Marina Grande, the island of Capri rising like a cliff-side city from clear water. The skipper eases the throttle and the coastline unrolls: pale limestone cliffs, the three Faraglioni stacks standing like weathered guardians, and the small, shadowed mouths of grottos that dare you to peer inside.
