In addition to the many excellent suggestions you have rec'd, I'd
only add my favorite plug for how to see a grotto in Capri. If
you're the least bit adept with motor boats, Erina, it is very easy
and inexpensive to rent a nice fiberglass user-friendly boat just
down the beach to your right as you exit the Sorrento-Capri ferry.
The agency will give you a map of Capri with many grottos (grottoes?
grotti?!) noted around the island, and you can even anchor and swim
in--one features some religious statues on the ocean floor which are
visible through the gorgeous waters w/o the aid of a mask. You can
easily do this adventure in 2 hours, and while the commercial Blue
Grotto operators won't let you in *the* Blue Grotto, you'll see the
same and more.
Enjoy your Italian adventures! Diana Ball Houston, TX |
