You push off from Sorrento as the town’s pastel facades shrink behind you and the Tyrrhenian lays out a glittering path to Capri. The Itama 38 slips over glassy water; gulls circle and the island’s limestone cliffs loom like an invitation. You’ll pass the Faraglioni stacks, watch caves open their mouths in green and white, and anchor for swims where the sea dares you into its clear folds.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

You push off from Sorrento as the town’s pastel facades shrink behind you and the Tyrrhenian lays out a glittering path to Capri. The Itama 38 slips over glassy water; gulls circle and the island’s limestone cliffs loom like an invitation. You’ll pass the Faraglioni stacks, watch caves open their mouths in green and white, and anchor for swims where the sea dares you into its clear folds.
Capri keeps a long memory: Roman emperors built villas here, most famously Tiberius, whose footprints remain in scattered ruins. Geology is visible in the island’s sheer travertine and sea-cut grottos; currents and time carved the White, Green and Blue grottos that punctuate the coastline. Culturally, Capri blends upscale dining and quiet Anacapri lanes — both are part of the island’s rhythm and something your skipper will point out between swims.
Practically, expect a full 8-hour day: cruising, short guided passages by grotto mouths, a 30-minute stop for access to the Blue Grotto (weather permitting), and time to moor and swim or visit an island restaurant. The crew handles navigation, fuel surcharges are charged onboard, and lunch reservations can be arranged if you prefer a shore meal.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a water-resistant daypack, and shoes that grip a wet deck. Timing matters — mornings are calmer for grotto access; late afternoons make for a limoncello toast at sunset. The trip is private and relaxed: sit back, swim when invited, and let the island shape the day.
easy.
8 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; you should be comfortable getting on and off a small yacht and able to swim for open-water stops.
No; access to the Blue Grotto depends on sea conditions and official boat quotas—your skipper will attempt it early but cannot guarantee entry.
The charter departs from Sorrento’s marina and returns there the same day; pickup details are requested at booking.
Basic drinks and snacks are provided onboard; full lunches ashore can be arranged and reserved on request but may incur extra cost.
A fuel surcharge is charged on the boat and varies by route (Capri noted separately); the skipper or operator will confirm the exact fee onboard.
Capri was a favored retreat for Roman elites—Emperor Tiberius ruled from a series of villas on the island beginning in the 1st century AD, leaving ruins and legends behind.
Capri and surrounding waters are sensitive marine habitats; avoid single-use plastics, respect no-anchoring zones, and follow skipper instructions to reduce disturbance.
