Insider tips
- ★Arrive early at your meeting point—the 8:45 AM departure catches morning light ideal for photography of the rock formations and minimizes midday heat on the island
- ★Wear your swimsuit under your clothes and pack a small dry bag; the boat stops for swimming are the highlight, and crystal-clear water visibility is best before afternoon haze
- ★Use your free time on Capri to visit the main piazza (Piazzetta) early, before it gets crowded with late-arriving tour groups from other operators
- ★Bring cash in euros for island cafes and shops—not all vendors accept cards, especially smaller establishments
Good to know

- •Bring high-SPF sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses—sun exposure on the water is intense and reflected off the sea
- •Beach towel recommended for swimming stops; some travelers find the boat rocking during longer cruises unsettling, so anti-nausea medication may be helpful
- •Comfortable walking shoes essential for Capri's steep cobbled streets and uneven terrain
- •Price from €186 per person; exact itinerary and inclusions (meals, entrance fees) depend on operator—confirm whether lunch and Blue Grotto entry are included
