Almost every house on Capri owns land with groves of lemon trees. Known as the home of the 'true lemon', the aromatic scent of sweet and zesty citrus is hard to escape.

There are many cafes in the area that are perfect for unwinding in between trips to the markets and gallarias where you can people watch and let the world go by.
Mount Solaro is the highest point of Capri and stands at 589m at its peak. The walk up is quite long, but definitely worth the journey if you are an eager photographer or want the chance to see every corner of the island.

A wealth of history evident in the local architecture
The architecture of Capri is dramatically different from mainland Italy yet equally as beautiful. Many of the residents live in buildings built as far back as the late 1800s and take pride in the upkeep of their homes.
You can spot many of these buildings from the comfort of your superyacht, providing you with an interesting backdrop as you sip your mid-afternoon cocktail.

While Capri is a popular anchorage, tourism has not affected the natural beauty of the terrain. In fact, there are many pastoral walks and natural footpaths that will lead you to breathtaking vistas.
