Capri
Known for its glitz and glamour, the island of Capri wasn't always a desirable vacation spot just off the Amalfi Coast. In the past, its position made it most valuable for trade.

Capri's atmosphere is from a fairy tale mixed with incredible gardens, fruit, and olive trees.
From your private yacht, head ashore and take the funicular to reach the small inland town of Capri. Explore quaint piazzas, have a bite to eat, and try some authentic gelato.
