If this isn't possible, take a boat tour around Capri and enjoy the chance to see the Faraglioni rocks and natural caves. Next, head to Anacapri to stroll through the town, or catch the chairlift to Mount Solaro, at your own expense. Make a stop for lunch (not included) and soon after reach the main square of Capri, La Piazzetta. There, get some time to savor a delicious coffee, walk around the typical streets, and hit the shops.

Set sail from Sorrento and cruise along the coast of Capri on a full-day boat tour. Admire the island's natural beauty, swim in the crystal-clear waters, and enjoy free time to explore the island at your own pace (no extra fees to disembark on Capri). Unlike other companies that require uncomfortable bus transfers to other towns or ports, this boat departs directly from the port of Sorrento — no time wasted in traffic or waiting under the sun. Once everyone is on board and has received a short briefing on the day's itinerary, set off westward towards the island of Capri. Pass secluded beaches, natural rock arches, and mesmerizing sea caves. Along the way, admire the ancient watchtowers that stand as silent sentinels along the coast. Pause at hidden beaches and grottoes accessible only by sea, offering the perfect opportunity to swim or snorkel in crystal-clear waters. As you sail along the Sorrento coast, take in breathtaking sights, including the picturesque fishing village of Marina Grande, the ruins of a Roman villa at Bagni della Regina Giovanna, and other coastal landmarks. Upon reaching Capri, begin your exploration of the island from the sea, cruising along its southeast coast, where its most famous attractions are located. Stop at Villa Jovis, the grandest of Emperor Tiberius’ residences on Capri, followed by the Rock Window to the Sky, a naturally formed cavity in the cliffs, sculpted over millions of years by unique wind currents. Next, arrive at the Faraglioni Rocks, three towering sea stacks—often called the "guardians of the island"—shaped by centuries of coastal erosion. Have the exciting opportunity to sail through a natural arch carved into one of the formations. Continuing the journey, explore a network of interconnecting sea caves, including the White Grotto (Grotta Bianca) and the Green Grotto (Grotta Verde). The vivid turquoise waters here create the perfect setting for a refreshing swim or snorkeling session before heading ashore. After a refreshing dip and a toast with Prosecco, served alongside fresh fruit and other drinks, disembark on Capri (no extra fees), where you’ll have approximately three hours of free time to explore the island at your own pace and enjoy lunch (not included). While this tour does not include a stop at the Blue Grotto—since the wait can often stretch up to two or three hours under the sun, cutting into your time on the island—you’ll still have the option to visit it independently. Local ferry companies offer priority access to the grotto, making it a faster and more convenient choice. In our opinion, this is the best way to enjoy the experience without missing out on the beauty of Capri. On the return voyage to Sorrento, take a different yet equally breathtaking route, offering a new perspective on the beauty of both land and sea.
