Villa Malaparte

Villa Malaparte is a striking masterpiece of Italian modern architecture perched on a lonely cliff, famous for its Pompeian red exterior and the iconic monumental stairway leading to its roof terrace

Faraglioni

Capri's most iconic sight is the dramatic Faraglioni, three towering rock formations in the Mediterranean Sea, just off the island's coast.

Marina Piccola

Marina Piccola is a picturesque bay on Capri's southern coast, famous for its crystal-clear waters, historic beach clubs, and stunning views of the Faraglioni rocks.

Grotta Verde

You will be amazed by the waters of the Green Grotto, which looks like an enormous liquid emerald. Please remind that swimming in the Green Grotto is possible only if the sea is calm and safe.
