Take An Enchanting Vacation To The Island Of Capri Italy
The Amalfi Coast is one of the most beautiful places in all the world. Not just for the gorgeous turquoise blue waters and warm climate, but for the many small little islands located up and down the coast. The island of Capri is one of these islands which attract thousands upon thousands of visitors each year with its enchanting buildings and glorious views. Once a favorite of Roman emperors, the island of Capri is now one of the must see places reserved for all. A Capri Italy vacation gives you a taste of the beautiful Italian coastline while it charms you with an endless amount of fragrant lemon trees (with lemons the size of your head) and sweet smelling flowers which seems to put in a euphoric trans as you experience the beauty of this island.
A day trip is usually all you need when visiting the island of Capri. You certainly can choose to spend a night or two on this beautiful island (a perfect romantic getaway from a special occasion perhaps), but a good full day on Capri can give you a hearty dose of what this island is about. You can access the island of Capri via ferries and hydrofoils from Naples and Sorrento. You can expect approximately 10,000 tourists each day (especially during the busy tourist season), so visiting on the off season (spring and fall) may be a wise choice if you are only able to visit for a day.
The island of Capri is well known for their lemons, more specifically, their limoncello which is a lemon liquor in where the lemons are fermented and soaked in a highly concentrated alcohol resulting in a very strong and very pungent (but aesthetically pleasing!) taste. You will find many shops specializing in the sale of limoncello on Capri as well as many limoncello tastings! You will also find lovely ceramic pieces, handmade by local artisans as well as aromatic perfumes made by locals as well.
One of the most spectacular sights to behold on your Capri Italy vacation is a visit to the Blue Grotto. It is a cave on the island made famous by its refraction of sunlight which turns the water into a startlingly blue color. The cave is only accessible via a small row boat. There comes a point during your ride where you must lie down flat inside of the row boat in order to enter the cave. This in and of itself is a thrilling event. Once inside the Grotto, you will bear witness to the spectacular crystal blue water. Since only a few boats are allowed in the grotto at one time, your trip, though short, will be quiet and appreciated.
