The Journey
Villa Pollio Felice Ruins

Once belonging to Pollio Felice, a prominent figure from Pozzuoli's noble family, these remnants offer a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the Roman elite. Explore the crumbling walls and imagine the lavish banquets and leisurely days that once unfolded here, all while enjoying stunning coastal views.
Punta Campanella
Stand at the dramatic tip of the Sorrento Peninsula at Punta Campanella, where the only thing separating you from the legendary island of Capri is the shimmering Tyrrhenian Sea. This location, steeped in history and mythology, offers breathtaking panoramic views. On clear days, you might even catch glimpses of the distant coast. It's a perfect spot for contemplation and appreciation of the natural beauty that defines this region. Legend says that the tower in the location was used to warn of pirate attacks.
Li Galli Islands
Escape to the enchanting Li Galli islands, a tiny archipelago nestled between Capri and Positano. These mythical islands, once believed to be the home of sirens who lured sailors to their doom, are now a haven of tranquility and natural beauty. Admire the pristine waters, rugged cliffs, and secluded coves. Although privately owned, boat tours often circle the islands, offering unparalleled views of this Mediterranean gem.
Positano
Immerse yourself in the vibrant charm of Positano, a picturesque cliffside village famous for its colorful buildings cascading down to the sea. Lose yourself in the labyrinthine streets, filled with boutiques and artisan workshops where skilled craftsmen create custom-made sandals and clothing, a tradition that dates back to the 1960s. Relax on Spiaggia Grande or Fornillo beach, and soak in the atmosphere of this unforgettable Amalfi Coast jewel.
Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra)
Venture into the magical Blue Grotto, a natural sea cave on the coast of Capri renowned for its ethereal blue light. Sunlight filters through an underwater opening, creating an otherworldly glow that illuminates the cave's interior. Enter on small rowing boats to fully experience this natural wonder. The surreal ambiance and captivating beauty make the Blue Grotto a must-see attraction.
White Grotto
Discover the White Grotto of Capri, named for its distinctive white rock formations. Explore the cavernous interior, adorned with stalactites shaped by centuries of atmospheric agents and sea erosion. Marvel at the natural sculpture resembling a Madonna, a testament to the artistic power of nature. Boat tours allow you to admire this naturally occurring artwork from the sea.
Faraglioni Rocks
Behold the majestic Faraglioni, towering rock formations that rise dramatically from the sea off the coast of Capri. These iconic stacks, sculpted by the relentless forces of the sea and wind, reach heights of up to 100 meters. Admire the central stack's natural archway, through which boats can pass, offering a unique and unforgettable experience. These are perhaps the most recognizable feature of Capri.
Punta Carena Lighthouse
Visit the Punta Carena Lighthouse, Italy's second most powerful beacon, stands proudly on the westernmost point of Capri. Constructed atop a two-story building, this historic lighthouse features an octagonal masonry tower with a lantern and gallery. It has guided mariners for over 150 years. Enjoy the sweeping coastal views and capture the timeless beauty of this maritime landmark, which is particularly beautiful during sunset.
Marina Piccola
Relax and soak up the sun at Marina Piccola, the charming harbor on the southern side of Capri. This sun-drenched haven offers stunning views of the so-called Scoglio delle Sirene (Siren's Rock) and crystal-clear waters.
