Fantastic grottoes, soaring conical peaks, caverns great and small, plus villas of Emperors and thousands of legends, brush Capri with an air of whispered mystery. Life in Capri lives around the two centers of Capri Town and Anacapri, higher up, where you can reach the island heights by taking the spectacular chairlift that ascends to the top of Monte Solaro (1.932 feet). The Blue Grotto is the most famous sight in the island, so at least once in your lifetime, you should experience this wonder of nature: hop aboard a wooden rowboat, lay back, and let yourself be carried through a tiny stone portal to another world by your able skipper, who navigates seamlessly under the meter-high cave mouth. In contrast to the intimate space and vivid color of the cavern, are the three peaks further out to sea, emerging from the azure blue water, pointing toward the sky: they are the Faraglioni and are famed for their breathtaking beauty and home of a variety of rare wildlife.
