Capri Island, located off the Sorrentine Peninsula in Italy’s Campania region, offers a spellbinding mix of rugged coastlines, turquoise waters, and iconic natural landmarks. With Explore Sorrento’s "Capri Day & Night" cruise, adventurers can experience this Mediterranean jewel in unparalleled style—both under the day's sun and the moon’s soft glow.
This full-day, small-group voyage begins along the Sorrento coast, sailing past Punta Lagno and Punta Campanella, a site steeped in myth where Odysseus is said to have encountered sirens. The journey circles Capri, revealing dramatic sights like the white limestone cliffs that form the natural White Grotto and the famed Faraglioni Rocks—towering sea stacks etched by centuries of erosion. A standout moment comes at the Natural Arch, where boats pause for photo-worthy views beneath the Arch of Love.
An inviting swim stop at Marina Piccola lets guests dive into crystal waters, while onboard, prosecco and fresh snacks offer a laid-back luxury. The tour also includes stops at the Green Grotto, a sea cave glowing with emerald light, and Punta Carena Lighthouse, Italy’s second-brightest beacon dating back to 1866.
At Marina Grande, visitors enjoy free time on Capri’s bustling main pier—perfect for a stroll through cobblestone streets or a romantic meal. As day fades, the return trip back to Sorrento under a starlit sky completes the experience.
