Set sail from Castellammare di Stabia aboard a traditional boat to witness Capri’s Faraglioni at sunset and step inside the spellbinding Blue Grotto—complete with a seaside aperitif as day fades to night.
The Campania coast offers some of Italy’s most striking maritime landscapes, and CP Charter’s “Tour Privato La Magia al Tramonto dei Faraglioni” delivers these wonders with intimate, curated style. Departing from Castellammare di Stabia, a historic harbor town nestled on the Bay of Naples, this private sunset cruise threads along the Sorrento coastline before turning toward the legendary island of Capri. Known for its dramatic cliffs and luminous waters, Capri is punctuated by the towering limestone Faraglioni stacks, geologic sculptures shaped by millennia of sea and wind. As the afternoon light fades, these iconic rock formations glow in coral and gold, a spectacle best witnessed from the gentle deck of CP Charter’s traditional boat.
This intimate journey is much more than a scenic ride — it’s a deeply atmospheric experience that includes entrance to the Blue Grotto, where seawater shimmers an otherworldly cobalt under the sun’s last rays. Navigating the grotto’s narrow entrance is a local rite, hinting at Capri’s blend of myth and natural beauty. To complete the evening, guests enjoy a classic Italian aperitif onboard, letting the sky’s evolving colors and the salt-tinged breeze shape an unforgettable mood.
CP Charter stands out for blending tradition with personalized service, offering flexible, private tours rather than cookie-cutter group trips. This connection to local heritage, combined with their knowledge of the waters and hidden coves, makes them a gateway to a side of Capri and Campania rarely seen by tourists. For adventurers craving something both relaxing and evocative, this cruise strikes the perfect balance — a sunset ritual on the sapphire edge of Italy’s Amalfi coast.
