Capri, Italy

My second day in Naples I caught the bus down to the port and took the boat to the Island of Capri. The boat was quite nice, everyone had comfy, cushioned seats inside, and the ride only lasted a little under an hour.

Once we arrived at the Capri port, I got off and found a station selling tickets for an island tour. After purchasing my ticket I went with about 10 other people into a boat and away we went. The tour lasted approximately 2 hours and went around the entire Capri coast. At one point we were able to transfer into tiny little rowboats and glide inside the "Blue Grotto" so called for the beautiful colors of the waters inside the cavern.

After the tour I bought a tram ticket and took the tram up to the inside of the island. Inside Capri were bustling little streets filled with restaurants, shops and many tourists. I spent the next couple of hours wandering up and down the streets and found a beautiful garden with a fantastic view of the other side of Capri. Unfortunately I had already purchased my ticket for my boat ride back to the main land of Naples which had a set time to meet back at the boat. I wish I could have stayed longer because there were many hiking trails and beautiful walking paths which looked very inviting. Overall, Capri was truly beautiful and reminded quite a bit of the Catalina Island with its beaches, businesses and tourism outlook.
