This island offers a landscape of wild beauty sculpted by wind, sea and man's clever work, a steep and very irregular coast, encircled by the famous Faraglioni (staks), big and eccentric rocky reef, and by many caves with suggestive light-games. The most famous cave is the well known Grotta Azzurra (Blue Grotto), closely connected to the history of tourism in Capri, it is a myth that still resists and it keeps being one of the favourite destination for travelers, intellectuals and international jet-set personalities, that it is possible to see at any time in the legendary little square of the theatre of the island's 'Dolce Vita'.
It is an historical jewel. There are many places that you can visit if you wish to travel throughout the past of this enchanted place, that it was discovered already by the ancient Romans, whose passage is testified by the countless archeological finds, like for examples the rests of Villa Jovis, whose construction had been commissioned by the Emperor Tiberio.
The Certosa of San Giacomo is an unmissable destination to visit, today it houses a museum that exposes two statues recovered from the deep Grotta Azzurra.
In Anacapri, the characteristic Casa Rossa (Red House), catching the eye element within the coloured landscape, houses 'L'Isola Dipinta' a permanent exposition of images that illustrates the island's history and traditions.
Besides all the cultural attractions, the fascination of sea and nature, Capri also offers good shopping: tasteful boutiques and craftsman’s studios are mixed along the characteristic alleys, and offer “made in Italy” items and typical products.
Moreover, the local food, very rich and tasteful, is tied to the island's maritime and peasant traditions.
