CAPRI CAVE TOURS
Every trip has one free day too few. These 12 capri cave tours justify the slot, priced and timed, with the stairs, the temperature and the wet bits stated plainly.
From Marina Grande, cruise Capri’s rugged coast with an English or Italian speaking crew, passing the Faraglioni, Casa Malaparte, White and Green Grottos, and Punta Carena Lighthouse. Blue Grotto access costs extra and can involve a wait of up to two hours.
“It was a nice experience. The guide was funny and entertaining.”
From Marina Grande, your captain circles Capri’s dramatic coast, points out the Faraglioni, Casa Malaparte, sea caves, and Punta Carena, then stops at the Blue Grotto. The €18 rowboat entry is optional, and waits or rough water can prevent access.
“Great guide. Beautiful views. Love that he took time to take everyone’s photos!!”
Join HP Travel at Marina Grande for a two-hour small-group cruise around Capri. Your bilingual crew, including captains such as Roberto, Alex, or Vincenzo, takes you past major coastal sights, into several grottos, and to a swimming stop, with snacks, drinks, and limoncello included.
“Our boat trip was fantastic! The boat was nice and clean, and Alex is a great captain. Despite the waves being a bit rough, Alex ensured we were comfortable throughout the journey. Though we had never shared a boat with a group of other people before, it felt very spacious and enjoyable. The captain took pictures of each of us and showed us the best parts of the island. We also had a 20-minute swimming time. Definitely worth the price!”
Leave Marina Piccola in Sorrento early for a boat ride to Capri, a full coastal cruise, and five hours to explore Capri and Anacapri. A tour leader such as Michele or Gaetano helps with buses, chairlift plans, restaurants, and timing. The Blue Grotto costs extra and depends on sea conditions.
“The trip was excellent. Everything was well arranged and planned. There was plenty of time to spend on the islands. Michele was very helpful and able to provide suggestions and detailed explanations of what to explore.”
Travel by fast ferry from Naples to Capri with an English-speaking guide such as Tiziana, Michele, or Alberto. Ride island shuttle buses, visit Anacapri and Capri town, and see the Blue Grotto when the sea allows. If it is closed, a boat ride visits the Faraglioni and other caves.
“Everything was well organised and managed well no issues”
Start at Marina Grande and circle Capri in about one to two hours with an English and Italian speaking crew. You will see the island’s famous grottoes, Faraglioni, Natural Arch, Villa Malaparte, and Punta Carena lighthouse. Add the Blue Grotto for €18, plus possible waiting time.
“If interested to Blue Grotto, false advertising when they say it is optional. IT IS NOT OPTIONAL. We had to book another tour on location. Very disappointed”
Join Laser Capri at Pier 23 for a one-hour boat ride around Capri. Your skipper points out the Faraglioni, Natural Arch, grottos, Villa Malaparte, and Tiberius’ Leap. The Blue Grotto visit is optional, costs €18, and may be impossible when waves or queues are heavy.
“Loved it so much fun! I just wish the water levels were lower so we could’ve gone into the blue grotto!”
Take a two-hour boat ride around Capri from Marina Grande with an English- or Italian-speaking skipper. See Tiberius’s Leap, Arco Naturale, the Faraglioni, and coastal caves. The optional Blue Grotto visit costs €19 and depends on weather, sea conditions, and the queue.
“The trip around Capri was excellent. We were grateful go be in a larger boat as the waves were quite big and the water very choppy. Enjoyed seeing the Green Grotto and others pointed out to us. We were a bit disappointed at missing out on the Blue Grotto by a few minutes as the water was too high by the time we got there. However, that is something to be expected and seeing the Green Grotto certainly made the trip worthwhile.”
You set your own pace on this self-guided Capri day trip. Collect your vouchers at Motoscafisti Pier, circle the island by boat, ride to Anacapri, eat a three-course lunch at La Giara, take the Mount Solaro chairlift, and return by bus and funicular. Ferry and Blue Grotto entry cost extra.
“Everything was amazing! I felt that I got a lot done with this tour. I wouldn’t have never done it on my own. Chair lift was amazing! The food at the restaurant was great! And the boat tour was very informative and with breathe taking views. Overall 5 stars!!! I recommend it 100%!!!”
Spend seven hours with a live guide such as Marco or Flavia, visiting the Blue Grotto by rowboat, Anacapri, Mount Solaro, Capri, and the Gardens of Augustus. You get organized transport, island commentary, and free time, with a coastal boat tour replacing the grotto if sea conditions close it.
“It’s the perfect way to see the island without any hassle. Our guide Marco is super friendly, knowledgeable and goes beyond and above to ensure we get the most out of the experiences. He knows all the hidden gems and the best way to appreciate the beauty of Capri! He also tries his very best to get us a chance to see the blue grotto. Highly recommended everyone to this amazing day trip in Capri!”
Paddle from Marina Piccola along Capri’s coast with guides such as Pasquale or Christopher. Learn basic stand-up paddleboarding, enter the Little Blue and Green Caves, swim at secluded beaches, and receive free GoPro photos. The 1.5-hour group tour suits beginners who can swim.
“Amazing Paddleboard Tour with Pasquale! Paddleboarding around Capri was an unforgettable experience! The water was crystal clear, and we explored beautiful caves and hidden spots you can’t reach by foot. Our guide Pasquale was fantastic – super friendly, fun, and made everyone feel comfortable. He shared great local insights and took photos of us along the way. Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Capri – and be sure to go with Pasquale!”
Meet Pasquale at Dock 23 in Marina Grande for a three-hour private cruise around Capri. Alex, Antonio, Rafael, or Alessandro may captain your traditional gozzo, with cave stops, swimming, Faraglioni views, and a Blue Grotto visit when sea conditions allow.
“unfortunately the blue grotto was closed because of choppy water conditions but Pasquale and Alessandro did an amazing job. happy to do it again.”
