Capri · Bay of Naples

Luxury Yacht Charter in Capri

Limestone cliffs, sea grottoes and the iconic Faraglioni — Capri is an island best understood from the water.

A Bay of Naples Perspective

Capri by Yacht

Capri rises from the Bay of Naples as a limestone island ringed by cliffs, caves and rocky stacks. A private boat tour around Capri reveals a side of the island that visitors on land rarely see.

A Capri yacht charter can be a short skippered circuit of the island or a full day at anchor in quiet bays. Classic gozzi, motor yachts and larger crewed yachts each bring a different character.

Depending on provider and conditions, itineraries may pass the Faraglioni and the island's grottoes, or continue toward the Amalfi Coast. Access to grottoes depends on sea state and local rules.

Charter Notes

What to Look For

Boat type
Motor yachts cover distance quickly, sailing yachts reward a slower rhythm, and catamarans prioritise space and stability.
Skipper or self-drive
A skippered charter lets everyone relax; self-drive boat rental in Capri typically requires a valid licence.
Group size
Check the permitted day capacity and whether there is enough shade and seating for everyone aboard.
Duration
Half-day, full-day or sunset — longer charters leave more room to explore.
Inclusions
Confirm what is included, such as fuel, skipper, drinks or water toys, before booking.

The Destination

Why Charter a Yacht in Capri?

Capri's most iconic sights — the Faraglioni and the sea grottoes — are experienced at their best from the water.

A private charter avoids the busiest ferry and tour times in summer.

It pairs naturally with a visit to the Amalfi Coast or Sorrento.

Pricing depends on the vessel, season, charter length, number of guests and inclusions such as skipper, fuel or onboard extras. Current rates are shown by the charter provider for each boat and date.

Can a Capri boat tour visit the Blue Grotto?

Entry to the Blue Grotto uses small local rowing boats and depends on sea conditions and opening hours. Charters may pass nearby; access is never guaranteed.

Where do Capri yacht charters depart from?

Charters may depart from Capri itself or from nearby harbours such as Sorrento, Positano or Amalfi, depending on the provider.

Can I combine Capri with the Amalfi Coast?

Some full-day charters combine both. This depends on the boat, duration and conditions.
