Create an itinerary including Blue Grotto
Explore the illuminated blue waters in the cavern of Blue Grotto. This cave on the island of Capri stretches 60 m (196 ft) into the cliffside. The intense blue coloring comes from the light conditions specific to the narrow cavern. Take a small rowboat through the entrance of the cave to witness the glowing water. Well-known for its acoustics, you can listen to the boat workers singing their favorite opera pieces, adding to the cave's atmosphere.

  • The blue grotto is very pretty. But what they do not tell you is that the tour companies take you close to the opening. Which is a small hole in the rock that only a row boat will fit through when...

  • My daughter and I absolutely loved visiting the Blue Grotto in Capri Italy. You can catch a boat from the Capri harbor. The boat doesn't just take you to the grotto but for a nice trip around the islands before getting to the Blue Grotto. It's a great way to see everything from the water.
  • We bought a boat tour around the island in the morning. From the Capri's port we went directly to the blue grotto - we were there around 10.15 a.m. and there was already lots of people waiting on the stairs and also on the boats. We got inside quite quick. The entrance was 14 Euro - quite a lot for a 5 minute ride... We changed the boat for small boats and got inside. The man who was in the small boat was very nervous and not nice. But I am still happy that we went there! It was amazing inside!
