One reason Capri continues to bring in tourists all year round is it’s abundance of culture and history. The beautiful Monastery Certosa di San Giacomo is the ideal place to start your trip and one of the island’s biggest attractions. Enjoy the magnificent views from Punta Tragera or climb to the top of Mount Solaro where you can see the peak of Mount Vesuvius. For something a little more relaxed, take some time to go on a wooden boat tour of the Blue Grotto Sea Caves where you will be transported from complete darkness into a sparkling cave, lit by blue light.

As there’s so much to do during the daytime, you may be wondering what there is to do during the evening. Piazzetta is a wonderful square which features the magnificent town hall and quirky pavement cafes where you can enjoy a coffee or cocktail depending on what you prefer.

If you want to travel a little further afield and explore your new surroundings, take a bus to Anacapri, which is slightly smaller and quieter than Capri Town and perfect for those looking to enjoy a slower paced holiday. You can also take the ferry to Italy’s southern coast and explore the Amalfi and Positano regions.
