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.

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

  • Island tour

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.

Boating in capri

It was a great choice of having a full boat trip without skipper, as we traveled around capri swimming here and there and skipping the hastle and bustle during the day in capri , the boat was easy to drive and the process of taking the boat and returning were smooth and fast. Expect to pay a 25 euros extra for fuel at the end of the trip.

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.
