Grotta Azzurra

Capri's Grotta Azzurra is located on the island's northwestern shore. It has been well-known since 1826, when the German artist August Kopisch paid a visit and instantly pointed it out. This discovery has undoubtedly contributed to Capri's increased fame. The cave measures 60 meters in length and 25 meters in width. At low tide, the entrance is two metres wide and around one metre high, allowing safe access only when the tide is low and the sea is calm.

To enter Grotta Azzurra by boat, you must stoop a little. This lovely entrance with a view of the sea is, in fact, partly submerged in water. The sun's rays create a vivid and magnificent shade of blue at the entrance to this magical gateway, and Grotta Azzurra gets its name from this feature.

If you wish to continue seeing the marvels of Campania following your visit to Capri, Sorrento is a terrific spot to stay. Your vacation will be in good hands at Casa Gaia. Surrounded by an organic garden and nestled between the hills of Sorrento, it's the ideal starting place for exploring Positano, Ercolano, Pompei, Ravello, and Amalfi. So, what exactly are you waiting for?

Scala della Fenice is a perfect place for anyone who enjoys long (but not excessive) walks. This cliff-side street connects Marina Grande with Anacapri with 921 steps. Along the route, you'll pass by a number of chapels, the most notable of which is St. Michele's, which is located on Capri's northwestern side. It has been well-known since 1826, when the German artist August Kopisch paid a visit and instantly pointed it out. This discovery has undoubtedly contributed to Capri's increased fame.
