Itinerary

Choose a departure time that suits your schedule, then meet the captain at Naples’ Mergellina Port. Board a luxurious speedboat or yacht, depending on group size, and enjoy sea breezes as you cross the Bay of Naples, with views of Mount Vesuvius and the volcanic island of Ischia.

When you reach Capri, the day is yours to spend exactly as you wish—one highlight of the island is the rocky coastline, where you can navigate to a series of gorgeous formations. Visit the blue grotto, green grotto, white grotto, and coral grotto, then see Faraglioni Rock, the longtime symbol of Capri. Whenever you’d like to cool off in the water, the captain can find the perfect place to swim in one of the many clear-water coves along the coast.

Cruise to Punta Carena and Marina Piccola, whose pretty beach has spectacular views of the coastline. Drinks and snacks will be available on board throughout your time at Capri, but if you’re ready for lunch, the captain can help you choose a seaside restaurant for a meal.

This 6.5-hour Capri tour concludes with the crossing back to Naples, and drop-off at the Mergellina Port.

Capri boat trip was wonderful! Our captain was knowledgeable and took us on a beautiful tour. They organized our taxi to the boat, lunch reservation and transportation back to our cruise ship. A highlight of our trip!

Exceptional experience

Erwin, our Captain and Giovanni, our skipper were exceptional. Alessandra, our greeter at the dock was so helpful to assure us we were at the correct location. The overall communication before the tour day was excellent as well. Great team effort. The tour around Capri island was breathtaking. It is hard to find enough descriptor words to adequately describe what an amazing tour this was. Erwin is an excellent and courteous captain that navigated the boat with extreme precision to get the best views. I would book with them again and again.

Crystal Blue Family Fun

Erika_L, Jun 2023
We had a wonderful day on the water, thanks to our driver Arcangelo and the beautiful boat. With six adults and one young child, the boat (40ft) was a good size for everyone to have their own space in the sun. The swimming was lovely, and they even provided towels, snacks, and drinks so we didn't have to bring anything onboard. We stopped on Capri for lunch, but if we go again I would pack lunch and eat it on the water and beautiful boat instead. I would recommend this trip for anyone who is looking for a relaxing and fun day in the sun and water.

This is the kind of day that you...

This is the kind of day that you NEVER forget. What an amazing day!! The captain was extremely friendly and easy going. The boat was great with plenty of room for sunbathing and relaxing. The caves and views were absolutely breathtaking!! Capri is a magical Island that we did not want to leave. Lunch overlooking the beach and blue water was magnificent and delicious. But the best part was jumping off the boat into the sea. There is nothing like it and the family had an absolutely perfect day.
