What To Expect
White Grotta
During the tour of the island by boat you will see the marvelous White Grotto which extends for 30 meters and takes its name from the color of its rocks: an extraordinary pure white. Inside, the waters form two small lakes communicating through an artificial channel carved into the rock. In Roman times it is said to have been used as a shelter for boats, but if you look carefully you will notice that the white walls show some signs of the passage of man: in the seventeenth century the population took refuge in this cave to hide from pirate attacks! The time is calculated also considering the duration to reach the destination
Grotta Verde
During the boat tour of the island you will see the marvelous Green Grotto which owes its name to the color of its waters. The light penetrates through the entrance, reflecting on the seabed and paints the waves of the sea an emerald green. This inlet was used by Turkish corsairs as an outpost to ambush and plunder passing boats. There are two openings: the western one located 4 meters below sea level and the eastern one located on the surface. The opening of the Green Grotto in Capri is 7 meters high. You can swim in if the sea is calm! Inside, the walls are irregular and covered with sedimentary rocks, the dolomites, the oldest on Capri. The green of the water can vary in intensity according to the weather conditions and the hours of the day. The time is calculated also considering the time needed to reach the destination

5.00Our group had an amazing day exploring the Isle of Capri with our captain, Alex! We learned so much about the island and had a wonderful lunch at a restaurant that Alex recommended. He even made a reservation for us. He also helped us find great spot for swimming and shared all his knowledge of Capri with us. We highly recommend Alex and this tour!

5.00My wife and I really enjoyed our experience. Our hosts Alex and Angelo showed us around the entire outskirts / waters of Capri, making numerous stops for sightseeing caves and other famous land marks, swimming in crystal clear coastal waters, and taking pictures. They were both extremely knowledgeable about the landmarks and rich history of the Island. We stopped at Capri for a few hours for lunch and independent exploration. Loved how we were able to really customize where we went and at what paces we moved. Overall great experience. Pricing was very reasonable for a private full day experience.

Unforgettable boat trip with Mattia!

5.00This is a must do! This was our first boat tour experience and now is one of our favorite memories of our vacation. Our captain, Mattia, was beyond wonderful! He was knowledgeable about the sea and the area, was so patient and accommodating, and genuinely wanted us to have an exceptional experience. The views of Capri were phenomenal. We attempted to visit the blue grotto, but were not able to go because the officials shut it down due to the sea being too high. However, Mattia knew of a couple other stops and grottos, so he took the time to take us there instead. Capri was definitely worth the visit! Had a wonderful meal by the sea and took in the scenery before heading back at sunset. We definitely want to come back and share with family and friends!
