Capri is a tourist
destination for both Italians and foreigners. In the 1950s,
Capri became a popular destination for the international jet
set. The central piazzetta of Capri, though preserving its
modest village architecture, is lined with luxury boutiques,
expensive restaurants, and paparazzi chasing celebrities.
During the summer, the island is heavily touristed, often by
day trippers from Naples and Sorrento. To savour the
wonderful light and atmosphere of the island it is best to
be out and about early in the morning and late in the day
and out of the high season.
Capri is served by frequent ferry and hydrofoil service to
Naples and Sorrento, as well as many other boat services to
the ports of the Gulf of Naples and the Sorrentine Peninsula. |
