Circle Capri by private gozzo to see the Faraglioni, Punta Carena, and the Blue, Green and White Grottos. This two-hour cruise includes swim stops in crystalline water and close-up coastal sightseeing with a local skipper.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from Marina Grande, the gozzo’s wooden thrum underfoot and the salt-air sharpening into a clean, electric blue. Cliffs unroll like pages: Faraglioni stacks jutting offshore, the Punta Carena lighthouse a white punctuation against low clouds, and a string of grotto mouths that flirt with the light.

Conservation

Aim for an early departure
Morning light improves grotto colors and seas are typically calmer—book the first or second slot if possible.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a hat
Shade is limited on deck and reflective water increases UV exposure; protect skin and eyes.
Pack swim shoes
If you plan to hop to shore, rocky landings can be slippery—lightweight water shoes improve stability.
Check Blue Grotto access with your skipper
Entry depends on sea state and queue limits; your captain will advise whether a landing or pass-by is realistic.
Swimwear & quick-dry towel
