Capri is a beautiful island just 10 square kilometres, located off the Sorrentine peninsula which has long been the haunt of the rich and famous including such icons as Gracie Fields and Oscar Wilde. Everyone appears to have their own specific Capri dream; whether it's the myth of Sirens charming seafarers, of dreamy sea views, of ancient Romans, or of 1950's celebrities in big sunglasses, or simply of lazy summer evenings spent browsing in exclusive boutiques.
Whatever your dream, the principal Capri attraction is the island itself; its views, rocky seashores and its scenic charm. There is plenty of good walking or strolling to be done as you explore the island and top scenic panoramas include views of the Bay of Naples, the Faraglioni Rocks and the Gardens of Augustus.
With its delightful gardens, mountainous terrain and dramatic coastline it provides a quiet hedonistic hide-away despite the multitude of day trippers. It is a wonderful island, most of which can be easily accessed by a series of beautiful walking trails although there are regular buses between the towns of Capri and Anacapri and Marina Grande harbour. There is no doubt that Capri holidays are centred on relaxation and enjoyment of the beautiful surroundings.
In Capri town itself, boutiques and cafes cluster around the pretty domed church of Santo Stefano in the Piazza Umberto I but you can easily escape to the peace of the shady cloisters of the 14th century Certose di San Giacomo or the Punta Tragara lookout where the rocky islets carved into amazing shapes are a symbol of the island's beauty
