Later, and presumably better-behaved inhabitants were the monks who built the Certosa in an attempt to defend the island from invading Saracens. The Romantics and Grand Tourists later admired the island's rocky natural beauty, while the French occupied Anacapri and fought the English here during the Napoleonic wars.
In 1826 the Grotta Azzurra was 'discovered' by a German tourist, the poet August Kopisch, and gradually the island became established as a desirable holiday haunt for artists, writers, royalty and celebrities, a status it still holds today. The port at Marina Grande was built in the twentieth century and enabled visitor numbers to rise as tourism became the island's chief industry. Leave a Comment

You might be able to skip the rest of the sights, and just go straight for the Blue Grotto, if you'd like to save a bit of cash. It's best to prepare cash (the exact amount for the entrance to the Blue Grotto) for this trip, because you might get wet, and if you do, it's best not to have your money on you. Well, it's best not to have anything with you. If you've a camera, bring your Ziploc bag to put it in. You don't want to miss the sights, but you don't want your camera ruined.
We think Capri dell' Isola is the better cruise company, although one would see Laser Capri once one walks off the boat at the pier. It's a longer trip, and the departures are more frequent. Besides, it's right next to the tourist office - in case one gets bored waiting for the boat to depart.
It's much better going on the cruise to go into the Blue Grotto because overland transport is confusing - and you know what maps are like in Italy.
The Blue Grotto, the Blue Grotto and the Blue Grotto.
You have to go there. It's expensive, but you have to go there.
The experience is hilarious, and special. Leave a Comment

 The Piazzetta by pili
Esta es la plaza más importante de Capri: La Piazzetta. Es un lugar muy lindo para sentarse a tomar algo o bien, si se tiene suficiente dinero, es un muy buen lugar para un almuerzo frugal.- Leave a Comment

 Marina Piccola by pili
Marina Piccola es más elegante y más coqueta que la Marina Grande. Está situada al otro lado de la isla, en posición simétrica. Tiene una muy linda plaza, donde, pese a las piedras, se puede tomar sol y nadar en el mar.- Leave a Comment

 Monte Solaro by Catspjm
If the sea is calm and the weather is sunny, treat your self to a boat trip around the island. Takes about two hours and is time well spent. Leave a Comment

 The Blue Grotto by pili
The views inside the grotto are amazing. If you can, go in the morning, because this is the best hour to visit the grotto.-
Por favor, no se pierdan estan increible experiencia. La luz del sol, pasando a través de una cavidad submarina, brilla sobre el agua, creando un reflejo azul que ilumina la gruta. La vista dentro de la gruta es espectacular. Si pueden, vayan de mañana porque en ese horario es donde se ven las mejores vistas.- Leave a Comment

 Marina Grande by pili
Esta es la vista que se observa desde el barco. La Marina Grande está llena de barcos de pesca, anclados cerca de la orilla o colocadas encima de la arena. A ese lugar llegan y de allí parten los barcos con turistas, como así los barcos que efectuan los tours a las grutas o a los farallones.- Leave a Comment

If you can't afford to stay here, why not stay in Sorrento, which is only 25 minutes away by catamaran. Leave a Comment
