CIAO ITALY – A tour to the “India of Europe”

Day 6: Capri
Another scenic location awaited us as we boarded a hydrofoil headed for the beautiful island of Capri. After docking at Marina Piccolo, we headed for Grotta Azzuraa – Blue Grotto, in Anacapri. Blue Grotto is a sea cave which is illuminated by the blue reflection of sunlight passing through an underwater cavity. The cave is closed during high tides and high winds and we were lucky to have been able to enter it. Limited rowboats are allowed inside and there is usually a queue of tourists, eagerly waiting their turn.

After an enchanting boat ride, we headed for the chairlift ride to the top of Mount Solaro which offers breathtaking views of Capri. The slightly scary ride was made up by the breathtaking views from the viewing point at the peak.

We then visited the terraced gardens of Augustus which offers panoramic views of the island of Capri. Finally, it was time to board the hydrofoil and head back to Naples.
