Capri is the most famous island in the Gulf of Naples, close to the Amalfi Coast, just 30 minutes away. Coveted by great emperors such as Augustus and Tiberius for its mild climate and enchanting landscape, it covers just over 10 square kilometres. Mediterranean temperatures favour the production of olive oil and the renowned limoncello, as well as the growth of extraordinary plants, making the island a place of fragrance and beauty in every season. A tourist destination since ancient times, Capri is rich in architectural traces left by the figures who chose it as their permanent residence. From the Roman Villa Jovis, through the late-medieval Certosa, to the noble residences of the last two centuries: Villa Lysis and the villas of writers, such as Munthe’s panoramic villa and Malaparte’s ingenious home. The road built by Krupp is the best known of the scenic routes winding along the coastline. In Anacapri, it is easy to enjoy walks: nature remains unspoilt, while silence and privacy matter greatly to those who live here. The village preserves the character of the most authentic island, with local crafts and quiet little streets. From here, the path descends towards the Blue Grotto, a natural marvel that amazes visitors with its colours and magic. Other routes lead to the Fortini trail and the Monte Solaro chairlift. The beaches are beautiful, whether free or equipped, both at Marina Grande and Marina Piccola. Here, lunch at La Fontelina can turn into a swim by the Faraglioni, while a trip to the Punta Carena lighthouse offers views of daring divers and the most beautiful sunset. The sweet life, however, has its chosen setting in Capri, where high society gathers to “socialise” at every hour. Since the 1950s, the Piazzetta has witnessed the glamour of a society that, from Sophia Loren onwards, has never stopped enjoying itself here.
