Discovering Capri: An Iconic Island Experience

Capri, situated in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the Sorrento Peninsula, is an iconic stop on the Amalfi Coast trek with Salamander Adventures. Known for its dramatic cliffs, historic landmarks, and cultural charm, Capri offers trekkers a glimpse into both natural beauty and human history. Accessible by boat from the Amalfi Coast, this renowned island combines ancient allure with modern-day elegance.

Captivating Attractions on Capri

Capri is famed for its Blue Grotto, a sea cave illuminated by ethereal blue light caused by sunlight reflecting off the water. The Faraglioni, three towering limestone sea stacks, are another natural wonder, often serving as the island’s symbol. Historical sites like Villa Jovis, the ruins of Emperor Tiberius’s Roman palace, highlight Capri’s cultural and historical significance. The island’s two towns, Capri and Anacapri, offer charming streets, artisanal shops, and local cuisine.
