Stop 1
Among the natural beauties of the island of Capri, the evocative White Grotto ranks first. Wonderful works of art sculpted directly from nature and the formations of stalactites and stalagmites present in the large natural cavity that stimulate the imagination of those who observe them. A magical place to be discovered.

3
Villa Malaparte, the most famous house in Capri, is rightly defined as a 20th century masterpiece and represents one of the masterpieces of modern architecture. It dominates, with its Pompeian red walls, the bay of Matermania and enjoys a dream view: to the south-east it faces the Sorrento Peninsula while to the south it looks towards the Faraglioni of Capri.

Stop 4
What is the symbol of Capri? Certainly the Faraglioni, the three imposing rocks that emerge from the sea. The best way to admire them is certainly from the sea where they offer a truly unique view. The boat will pass under the arch of the middle Faraglione: if you are in sweet company, exchange a kiss. Legend says it brings good luck.

Stop 5
Along the southern thing, the suggestive Grotta Verde rises. Known in ancient times as Grotta dei Turchi, in this natural cavity the sea is tinged with an incredible emerald green. The cavity has two entrances with colors and shades that offer plays of light and unforgettable shows.
The Green Grotto can only be accessed from the sea, you will surely enjoy visiting this wonder of nature.

During the tour, it will be possible to admire one of the most important lighthouses in Italy to the south-west of the island. The Punta Carena lighthouse, with its 28 meters of height, is set in one of the most beautiful sceneries of the island of Capri and represents one of the most evocative sites to see from the sea.

Stop 7
Together with the Faraglioni of Capri, it is the very symbol of the island. A karst cavity of rare beauty where the sea and the walls seem to merge into a single embrace and the little light that enters is reflected in a blue tint that makes you dizzy.
