Cruise around Italy’s Capri with Bologna Tour on a private boat, visiting iconic Faraglioni rocks and secluded caves with chances to swim in crystal-clear water.
Situated just off Italy’s southwestern coast within the Tyrrhenian Sea, Capri is a striking island within the Bay of Naples renowned for its dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters. Bologna Tour offers an intimate 3-hour private boat tour that frames Capri’s most captivating natural features from the water, transforming a simple outing into a refined adventure. The trip centers around the island’s iconic Faraglioni rocks—towering limestone stacks rising sharply from the sea that have become emblematic of Capri’s rugged shoreline. Along this route, your English-speaking skipper navigates you close to stunning caves, including the lesser crowded spots beyond the famous Blue Grotto, revealing secretive rock formations and hidden inlets, where the interplay of water and light creates unforgettable scenery.
This boat tour also invites guests to immerse themselves physically with opportunities to swim in the clear, temperate Mediterranean waters, where marine life occasionally glides nearby. The private nature of the experience means you set the pace and focus, allowing for quiet moments or lively exploration depending on your preference. Bologna Tour’s commitment to tailored experiences makes this journey stand out in the realm of Capri excursions, providing a blend of luxury, adventure, and personal interaction with the sea and landscape.
Capri’s geology, largely calcium carbonate from ancient seabeds, has been sculpted by millennia of waves, resulting in dramatic cliffs and caves. Historically, the island has been a retreat for emperors and artists, and its landmarks have countless legends tied to Roman times and beyond. Bologna Tour embodies the spirit of contemporary Capri travel, offering a way to witness natural wonders while respecting the island’s cultural heritage and environmental sensitivity.
