You step off the fast ferry into Marina Grande and the sea smells of salt and lemon. Boats rock gently against painted hulls while cliffs rise like cut stone, daring you to climb the island’s narrow streets. Your guide threads the route — a compact day that turns the island into a series of precise encounters: a sea cave that glows, a quiet hilltop, and a piazza that watches the world go by.
