A tiny yet beautiful speck in the Bay of Naples, Capri is a glamorous island that attracts visitors with its rocky interior, upscale beach clubs and designer stores. Capri Town is lined with every label you could imagine, from Gucci to Pucci, but you’ll also find tiny shops selling handmade leather sandals. Don’t miss the spectacular Blue Grotto, an underwater cave where the light turns the water electric blue, or the limoncello.
When to travel
The isle of Capri is cooled by coastal breezes that take the edge of its high temperatures; it’s often cooler here than on the mainland, with the same sunny skies and luxuriant florals. The small island becomes crowded in the peak summer months, with the best times to visit between April and early November.
WEATHER: Capri’s island locale means cooler temperatures than the mainland, with welcoming sea breezes to take the edge off the hot, dry summers.
