A full-day private cruise around Capri brings the island’s caves, Faraglioni stacks and clear swimming coves within reach. Expect a flexible 7-hour itinerary, onboard comforts, snorkel stops and the option to enter the Blue Grotto when sea conditions permit.

The boat slips away from Marina Grande and Capri’s limestone cliffs push the sky outward—sheer rock pressing against blue that dares you to get closer. On a private tour the sea becomes an active guide: the captain reads currents and channels, the Faraglioni rocks loom like sculpted gatekeepers, and caves—Green, White, Blue—flash with pockets of color as the hull moves past.
