The sea of Capri: a family passion

  1. A boat tour with Capri locals who are experts at sea

  2. 40 years' experience

  3. And you can even rent a boat without a skipper for an independent cruise

Address
Porto di Marina Grande, 17 e Marina Piccola, via Mulo 53 - Capri

A passion for the sea, passed down from generation to generation

It all began with the renowned Gennarino, who discovered the statues inside the Blue Grotto. His passion led him to introduce tourists to Capri's natural beauty, back when people were still using rowboats. Nowadays the company continues this tradition headed by Wendy (Gennarino's daughter), who—together with a team of young sailors who are experts at the helm—welcomes tourists from all over the world, giving them the opportunity to admire and enjoy Capri's beauty.

Services

Capri Whales has a fleet of over 20 boats and offers the following excursions with expert captains:

  • Island tour

  • Island tour for small groups

  • Day at sea along the Amalfi Coast

  • Transfers to/from Capri

Meeting Point

Marina Grande
Capri Whales excursions departing from Marina Grande meet at the Gennarino and Wendy shop (see map), easily spotted by its yellow awning, right next to the funicular.
The shop sells swimsuits for men, women, and children, as well as towels, sunscreen, hats, beach bags, and more. So if you need to pick something up for your day at sea, you can always buy it just before the tour!
The shop also offers a restroom where you can comfortably change before and after your excursion.

Marina Piccola
Capri Whales also has an office in Marina Piccola, on the steps to the beach, right under the church and bus station on via Mulo 53.

We rent private Aprea boat from Capri Whales but the tour was abnormal and thr boat shaked us very badly all along the route. Even thought I said the ferry shaked a lot, Stefano never warned about this wavy and annoying weather condition. It was a complete bad experience and I got sick and threw out everything out of my stomach. 2 children got also very sick and this was completely big disappointment. What would they if I fainted because of sickness and scarring? I guess they wouldn’t cate and look at what they earned !! The captain was also very young and rude. So I don’t advise.

Fantastisch! Nette Skipper, nette Mitarbeiter mit gutem Englisch. In 2 Stunden sieht man sehr viel. Wellenreiten macht sehr viel Spaß.

Non prenotate tour per piccoli gruppi con Capri Whales! Abbiamo prenotato questo tour (di cui la foto) su internet sul sito www.capri.it , dovevamo partire alle ore 10 da marina grande e rientrare alle ore 13 allo stesso posto. Arrivati al porto , presentiamo il voucher all'agenzia Capri Whales,che ci dice che purtroppo non possiamo partire perché non hanno raggiunto il numero minimo di partecipanti, che ci potevano rimborsare direttamente su carta di credito oppure trovare forse, un tour simile che comunque avremmo dovuto pagare noi! Dopo 30 minuti di attesa mi rivolgo al titolare dicendo che avevo letto termini e condizioni della prenotazione e che non esiste alcuna cancellazione per mancato raggiungimento del numero dei partecipanti. Lui e la figlia in modo molesto e non educato ci dicono"allora sai che ti dico? La barca perde olio e io non ti porto da nessuna parte, prendetevi un taxi e andatevi a fare un giro, oppure li c'è la polizia fate quello che volete"! Inaudito direte voi, ebbene nonostante la palese presa in giro, mancanza totale di educazione e rispetto del lavoro, accetto il rimborso, ma premetto che non mi hanno dato un foglio,una ricevuta di rimborso o altro! Mi rivolgo come consigliato dal proprietario alla polizia, la quale molto gentilmente capisce la nostra situazione e quasi mortificata per l'accaduto ci presenta un'altra agenzia per fare comunque il tour. Lo sconsiglio vivamente a chiunque!
