Capri Guide

Capri Ferry Port

The port of Capri is located on the north side of the island which itself can be found in the Tyrrhenian Sea on the south side of the Gulf of Naples, Italy. Ferry services connect the island with the mainland as well as other neighbouring islands. The main terminal is located at Marina Grande to the north of the main town of Capri and at the foot of Mount Solaro. For most of the year Capri does not allow non-resident cars or motorbikes to be used on the island. A car is of little use for the tourist anyway as the public transport is excellent. Shops, restaurants, bars and all kind of utilities welcome those who arrive or depart the port.

Sun kissed beaches decorate the coastline and colourful houses line the town centre; when envisaging a postcard picture Mediterranean town, Positano is what you’d imagine. The town’s appeal lies in the wonderful aesthetics of its landscape; walking trails dominate the land, affording glorious vistas of the surrounding mountainside. The beaches are also ideal for a leisurely stroll whilst embracing the refreshing sea breeze, especially in the summer when the sun shines down on the azure blue waters.

To really experience the beauty of Positano, a few companies offer excursions around the water encompassing the town. For those that prefer to spend their time on land, many tours are available around the religious sites scattered around the town, as well as some of the large parks.
