Aalicost.
Captain Morgan.
You can visit the DirectFerries site to know all the connections with all prices and schedules . Once you have arrived, after 3 to 5 hours of travel, you will be ready to discover the island of Capri.
One of the essential visits of the island is a city: Anacapri, a city located to the northwest, in the upper part . It is reached with the blue line, and it is only a 15-20 minute walk from the Blue Grotto. If Anacapri is so popular, it is for its charming atmosphere and its small baroque church. It is the ideal place to get away from folklore while being close to the sea.
To breathe fresh air, climb to the 589-meter-high summit of Mount Solaro , which is also the highest point on Capri! A unique landscape awaits you there, after a few hours of walking. If you like sporting challenges, you can do one of the following hiking trails, which are the most famous in Capri:
Via Krupp, which leads to the Gardens of Augustus (entrance costs one euro).
The route near the Arco Naturale, which offers a view of the Sorrento peninsula.
The Migliera path, little frequented and endowed with a magnificent viewpoint.
There are also many beaches, but we will talk about them later … Now we are going to Sicily!
