Skip the crowded ferry and cross the Bay of Naples on your own private boat. Board at Mergellina — Naples' most elegant marina — and set course for Capri with Vesuvius looming behind you.
The crossing from Naples to Capri takes about 90 minutes, and it's the route that shaped every postcard of the Bay. You'll pass Posillipo's villas, Nisida island, the volcanic Campi Flegrei coastline, then open water with Capri growing larger on the horizon.
Once at Capri, a full circumnavigation: Faraglioni, Natural Arch, White Grotto, Marina Piccola, and the legendary Blue Grotto if conditions allow. Swim stop in a hidden cove, lunch at a waterfront Capri restaurant with free island access, free time in the Piazzetta.
The return follows the coast toward sunset over Ischia and Procida — arguably the most photogenic route in the Mediterranean.
Insider tip: beat the ferry crowds by leaving early.
Public ferries from Naples to Capri pack hundreds of people into crowded boats. By departing at 8:30 AM on your private charter, you reach Capri before the first ferries dock — meaning the Piazzetta is still quiet and photos are tourist-free.
Antonio grew up on these waters. Born into a family of fishermen in Sorrento, he's been captaining charters around Capri, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast for over fifteen years. He holds a professional Italian merchant marine license and speaks English, Italian, and conversational Spanish.
When he's not at the helm, Antonio trains and vets every captain in The Charter Pro network. Every boat we connect you with is crewed by someone Antonio would personally trust with his own family.
