The boat slips away from the Sorrento coast and the island of Capri grows from pale blue horizon to a steep, sunburnt cliff rising out of the sea. Salt stings your lips and the skipper points out the Faraglioni—three jagged rocks that pierce the Tyrrhenian—while the wake winks like coinlight behind you.
