Frequently Asked Questions

No. Ships anchor in the bay and tenders land passengers at Marina Piccola, the small harbour at the foot of the tuff cliffs. Like any tendered call, it depends on sea conditions.
Two options. Climb the ramp and its roughly 200 steps, about twenty minutes of effort. Or take the minibuses and shuttles up to Piazza Tasso. If walking is difficult for you, take the shuttle without hesitation.
Piazza Tasso and its balcony over the void, Via San Cesareo and its workshops, the cloister of San Francesco, then the walk down to Marina Grande. Many passengers give the whole day to the town rather than an excursion: between viewpoints, gardens, churches and terraces, it rewards those who slow down.
Yes, ferries to Capri leave directly from the landing. But allow a serious safety margin for the return: with heavy traffic and seasonal crowds, the timing is tight.
The old fishing hamlet, kept apart from the bustle, fifteen minutes' walk from the centre down a sloping lane. Boats hauled up on the shore, laundry at the windows and restaurants at the water's edge make a picture many visitors miss for want of walking a little further.
A quiet but remarkable craft: since the nineteenth century the town's cabinetmakers have assembled precious woods into patterns of astonishing precision. Several workshops in the centre still show the work in progress, steps away from shops selling ceramics and handmade sandals.
At the historic garden I Giardini di Cataldo, a few streets from the centre: you walk under the pergolas that shelter the groves from sea wind, then taste the house limoncello served ice cold. The peninsula's lemons are huge and fragrant, and also turn up as granita, pastries and soap.
Yes, by road or by regional train, as for the Amalfi Coast. These trips require tight scheduling, and the ship does not wait for independent passengers. On a short call, the town itself is the safer bet.
Gnocchi alla sorrentina, baked with tomato and mozzarella, and limoncello to finish. Free tastings are everywhere along the shopping lanes, which usually settles the question of dessert.
Yes, it is one of the most sought-after calls in the Mediterranean, and the lanes hum from early morning. The walk down to Marina Grande or the cloister of San Francesco restores the quiet within minutes, without leaving the centre.
