Book Blue Grotto early
Blue Grotto access depends on sea conditions—arrive early in the day for the calmest water and the best chance of entry.
Wear terrace-ready shoes
Pompeii’s ancient streets and Capri’s steps are uneven; supportive, grippy footwear reduces fatigue and slips.
Protect from sun and spray
Ferry decks and open-top taxi rides expose you to sun and sea spray—bring SPF, sunglasses and a light wind layer.
Carry small change
Small bills and coins speed local purchases: boat operators, restroom fees, and quick snacks in piazzas often need cash.
Supportive walking shoes
Stony streets in Pompeii and steep steps in Capri demand good traction and ankle support.
Daypack with water bottle
Keeps hydration, sunscreen and documents handy during ferry and walking segments.
Sun protection (hat, sunglasses, SPF)
Open decks and exposed ruins mean prolonged sun exposure without much shade.
