To know more about your boat trip...

The Blue Grotto is Capri's most famous attraction: people from all over the world come to see it even for a few minutes. It is 25 meters wide and 60 meters long with an entrance less than a meter high. As a matter of fact, to enter it you have to lie on the bottom of a rowboat that slides through the small arch. Inside we find ourselves floating in the dark, on a water so blue that it seems transparent. The blue color of the cave is given by the light of the sun that enters through a submarine window that opens exactly under the entrance gate, thus undergoing a filtration by the water, which absorbs the red and lets the blue go . The entrance fee is payable exclusively on the spot at the floating box office anchored at the entrance of the cave (and only in cash). Unfortunately, in the summer you need to queue for hours to do the boat ride inside, which lasts only about 5 minutes. It is very important to know that swimming is strictly forbidden and during the visit there is no way to swim. Swimming, apart from being illegal, is very dangerous: the entrance is low and narrow and just a little higher wave can make you finish with the head against the rock. To highlight that the Blue Grotto is subject to closure because of the wind and the rough sea that make it impossible to enter. You can access it in two ways: by sea (far preferable) and by land.

      Tour half-day to Capri

      Bruce GH.

      We chose this half-day tour to Capri as we did not want to lose time visiting the island by land, but just do a relaxing boat tour all around it. We had an amazing experience that I cannot recommend enough! The skipper was fun and the group we were with had a lovely time too. We had time to swim just before the white grotto and then again around the famous Faraglioni. After a good lunch with a delicious sandwich and some beers, we started the way back to the pier of Piano where the driver was waiting for us to take us back to the Hotel. Just fantastic!

      Perfect amount of time

      Perfect amount of time to see Capri and its beautiful grottos by sea. Received snacks, a sandwich and plenty of drinks during the 4 hour trip. Skipper Salvatore and Roberta were just amazing and good fun. I strongly suggest it, well done!

      Excellent boat trip. Boat itself was very clean and modern. Skipper and guide were great: they made sure we saw everything and gave plenty of information around the island of Capri. The sandwich was unexpectedly good and drinks were plentiful. Good amount of time for the swim stops in great places around Capri where the water was just breathtaking!

      Me and my wife decided to go for the 4 hours boat tour. It was spectacular and a memorable experience. Swimming by the Capri coast was definitely a highlight. The boat crew Luisa and Luca were a gem. They provide food and drink and of course limoncello and Prosecco. I highly recommend it. They pick you up and drop you to your hotel and will give you the best experience
