Capri Sunset Boat Tour from Sorrento
Golden hour on the water, grottos by dusk, and Capri after dark
The Capri Sunset Boat Tour takes you from the Sorrento coast across open water as the afternoon light turns gold, offering a perspective of the island that daytime visitors rarely witness.
Departing in the late afternoon, your small group boards a private boat and traces the Sorrento coastline past Roman ruins, a natural freshwater waterfall, and the traditional fishing village of Marina Grande, all while the sky shifts through warm evening tones.
Once at Capri, the tour rounds the island to visit the Marvelous Grotto, White Grotto, and Green Grotto, with stops to admire the Faraglioni rock formations, Natural Arch, Villa Curzio Malaparte, and the Punta Carena Lighthouse. A swimming and snorkeling stop and an on-board snack break complete the sea portion before you go ashore.
On land, you have three to five hours of free time to explore Capri at night, dining, shopping, or sitting in the famous Piazzetta as the island settles into its quieter evening rhythm before the boat returns you to Sorrento.
