More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the hydrofoil into Capri’s harbor, salt on your lips and town bells knitting time to sea. Wooden boats bob at the quay like small promises; beyond them the Faraglioni thrust from the water, pointing toward the sky as if daring you to look higher. A private escort guides you through narrow lanes where lemon trees lean over stone walls and the scent of citrus rides every breeze.
