Plan a boat tours on Capri
One of the best ways to explore Capri is by taking a boat tour, which allows you to see its many hidden gems and experience its breathtaking scenery up close. In this comprehensive guide, we will discuss everything you need to know about arranging a boat tour on Capri, including the different types of tours available, the sights you can expect to see, and insider tips to make your experience truly unforgettable.
There are two main types of boat tours available on Capri: organized group tours and private boat rentals. Both options have their advantages and are suitable for different types of travelers.
Organized group tours
Organized group tours are a popular choice for visitors looking for a convenient and affordable way to explore Capri by sea. These tours typically last between 1-2 hours and cost around 21 euros per person. They are ideal for those who have limited time on the island or are visiting Capri for just one day.
You can purchase tickets for these tours directly upon your arrival at Marina Grande, where the tours depart from.

Private boat rentals
For those who prefer a more personalized and leisurely experience, renting a private boat is an excellent option. You can choose to rent a boat with or without a captain, depending on your preferences and level of experience. It is recommended to book your private boat rental in advance, as they tend to fill up quickly, especially during peak season.
Private boat rentals are perfect for those who want to spend more time exploring Capri's waters and discovering its hidden gems at their own pace. The cost of a private boat rental varies depending on the size of the boat and the duration.

What to see during a boat tour on Capri
A boat tour around Capri offers the opportunity to see the island's dramatic coastline, which is characterized by rugged cliffs, hidden coves, and fascinating grottoes. Some of the most popular sights to see during a boat tour on Capri include:
The Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra)
The Blue Grotto is one of Capri's most famous attractions, known for its mesmerizing blue waters and unique cave formations. Most organized group tours include a stop at the Blue Grotto, where visitors can choose to enter the cave on small rowboats for an additional fee (currently 15 euros per person). The visit inside the Blue Grotto is brief, lasting approximately 5 minutes, but is a truly magical experience not to be missed.
Faraglioni Rocks
These iconic rock formations, rising majestically from the sea, are a symbol of Capri and a must-see during any boat tour. Be sure to have your camera ready as you pass by these impressive natural wonders.
Marina Piccola
This charming little harbor, located on the southern side of the island, is a popular stop on boat tours. Here, visitors can enjoy a relaxing swim in the crystal-clear waters or simply soak up the sun on the nearby beach.
Green Grotto (Grotta Verde)
Another beautiful grotto to explore during your boat tour is the Green Grotto, named for the stunning emerald-green hue of the water inside the cave. This grotto is less crowded than the Blue Grotto and offers a tranquil, serene atmosphere.
Villa Malaparte
One of Capri's most famous architectural landmarks, Villa Malaparte is a striking red house perched on a cliff overlooking the sea. This unique building can be seen from the water during your boat tour and makes for a fantastic photo opportunity.
