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, and fantastic beaches abound. There’s always a flurry of activity in Capri’s main square, La Piazzetta. Elegant shopping awaits along Via Camerelle, where boutiques are built right into the original Roman walls. Have a cappuccino with a cornetto at Tiberio caffé, or a Campari aperitif at the bar of the Quisisana Hotel. Take a stroll on Via Krupp, one of the world’s most beautiful pathways that corkscrews down to the beaches below. Or rent a Riva (an Italian motorboat) or one of the typical Caprese boats (gozzi) and head to the Faraglioni, the iconic monolithic rocks rising from the sea, or indulge in an excursion to the Blue Grotto (better during off hours). Visit Mount Solaro, the highest peak on the island (589 meters above sea level), which is 12 minutes by chairlift from Piazza Vittoria or about 1 hour on foot.
If you want to glimpse at Capri in all its natural glory, Mount Solaro is an absolute must. Seemingly untouched by time, this peaceful corner offers refuge from the crowds of jostling tourists. Considering that Capri is a mere four miles in length, it is rich with historical sites. Tour the Villa San Michele in Anacapri, a museum with splendid mosaic floors 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.
