What to Do in Capri:
An intriguing island in the Bay of Naples , Capri has been coveted since Caesar Augustus purchased it in 29 B.C. Capri's steep walled harbors are filled with an impressive array of yachts, while fantastic beaches abound. There's always a flurry of activity at Capri's main square, La Piazzetta . is legendary for its elegant shopping along the Via Camerelle where boutiques are built right into Roman walls.
Rent a Riva , an Italian motorboat, or the typical capresi boats called "gozzi" and head to the Faraglioni, where monolithic rocks that rise from the sea, or indulge in an excursion to the Blue Grotto (better off hours) . En route you'll pass by spectacular cliffside villas until you reach a keyhole between the rocks. Here you transfer to a small skiff to enter the magical grotto with its otherworldly shades of blue.
Considering that Capri is a mere four miles in length, it's rich with historical sites . Tour the Villa San Michele in Anacapri, a museum with a splendid mosaic floor and filled with Roman artifacts. Most spectacular of all are the Gardens of Caesar Augustus . Be sure to walk along ancient footpaths above the sea, one can't help but be swept up by the soul of Capri.
