Capri is a little island located off the shoreline of the Sorrentine Peninsula on the south side of the Gulf of Naples. The waters around the island are crystal clear, making it great for snorkeling or scuba diving. Other activities include kayaking, boating, and fishing. Within Capri there is the Philosophical Park which features small tables with quotes from Western Philosophers and the Blue Grotto cave. Visitors will need to take a ferry from Sorrento to Capri. The ferry station will have information on hiking through the small island to the Blue Grotto and kayak rentals.
