5 Capri Boat Tours to Build a Day Around

1.Island Boat Trip with Grottos

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 4,923 reviews · 1 - 2 hours · from $28Our pick

Cruise from Marina Grande around Capri’s dramatic coast with an English or Italian-speaking crew, stopping for views of the Faraglioni, White and Green Grottos, Casa Malaparte, and Punta Carena Lighthouse. Add the Blue Grotto option for €18 on site, but expect possible waits of up to two hours.

“Quick 1 hr tour without grotto. The grotto was shut due to high tide. Tour was good. Choose the right side seats for best pictures on in centre on the fast boat. Would suggest to always buy without grotto coz its highly unpredictable. Always go to the travel agent location to get information rather than asking people around. No one helps here.”

3.Small Group Capri Island Boat Ride with Swimming and Limoncello

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,114 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $107Top rated

Spend about two hours circling Capri aboard a classic Sorrentine boat with an English-speaking skipper. See the White and Green Grottos, Natural Arch, Villa Malaparte, Faraglioni, and Punta Carena Lighthouse. You’ll also have time to swim, snorkel, and enjoy drinks, snacks, and limoncello.

“This boat tour far exceeded my expectations. It was my third time staying on the island and I assumed the group tours were a bit of a gimmick. Nonetheless, my husband and I booked this one last minute after visiting the blue grotto. There were a total of 12 guests on this one which wound up being 6 couples. Lotta love in the air! The captain was so much fun and interactive with everyone. He played upbeat fun music and took photos in front of the Faraglioni. We swam, ate snacks, drank limoncello, and made friends! 10/10 experience”

5.2-Hour Boat Tour with Happy Hour

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 286 reviews · 2 hours · from $105

Join You Know! Boat at Marina Grande for a two-hour cruise around Capri. See the White and Green Grottos, Natural Arch, Casa Malaparte, Faraglioni, and Punta Carena Lighthouse, then swim and enjoy drinks, snacks, and limoncello with an English or Italian guide.

“Friendly staff took us to the main sites. We stopped for a swim and had good music and some fun choppy water along the way. They offered us fruit cups, limoncello, caprese cake bite, and water along the way. The only recommendation of improvement would be for staff to have some sort of logo on their clothes or a sign so we knew we were in the right spot to start the tour. Overall, a great experience and would highly recommend. It's a great way to see the island from the water perspective and was just long enough.”
