Capri fills with day visitors from mid-morning to late afternoon. Stay overnight and you get the island in its calm hours: an evening walk to the Faraglioni viewpoint, an early boat before the crowds.

Frequently asked questions
Is it better to stay in Capri town or Anacapri?
Capri town is livelier, with the Piazzetta and designer shops. Anacapri is higher, quieter and usually cheaper, and close to Monte Solaro and the Blue Grotto road.
How do I get to Capri?
By ferry or hydrofoil from Naples or Sorrento all year, and from Positano and Amalfi in the warm season. Boats arrive at Marina Grande, linked to Capri town by funicular.
