On the island, there are only two towns: Capri and Anacapri. The majority of the population resides in Capri, where the most popular clubs, bars, and shops are concentrated. Anacapri is chosen by those who prefer a peaceful vacation and want to stay away from the noisy crowd.
The beaches on the island are mainly pebbly and rocky, with the best ones located in Marina Piccola bay. For families with children, the recommended beach is Bagni di Tiberio, which has a convenient entry into the water. La Fontelina is a rocky beach that is not suitable for families with young children but is famous for its restaurant with amazing cuisine.
Among the attractions of Capri, the Blue Grotto holds the greatest popularity. It is a cave located along the seashore. Once considered a sacred place, you can only enter it with a group on a small boat. We recommend testing your endurance by walking on the Phoenician Steps, which connect the two towns on the island. Not everyone can conquer the 921 steps carved into the rock!
Other notable attractions include Villa Jovis, which once belonged to Emperor Tiberius, the Faraglioni rocks (one of which has an arch through which excursion boats pass), and the San Giacomo Monastery, considered the oldest surviving building on Capri.

This place can be considered a source of ingenious ideas and a corner of creation of masterpieces. So be sure to visit the island of Capri and feel the atmosphere of inexhaustible inspiration.
