Ever since 1936, when the restaurant and beach club first opened, Da Luigi ai Faraglioni has been attracting a celebrity crowd: film stars, models, business magnates and politicians, all keen to spend a few hours bathing in the sea washing around Capri's legendary Faraglioni rocks.

The Magical Faraglioni

Open from first thing in the morning until late in the afternoon, Da Luigi ai Faraglioni has been designed to offer customers everything they might need for a fabulous day on the beach: a large sea edge terrace, a snack bar, tiny sundecks which seem to merge into the rocks, luxurious beach cabins, supremely comfortable sun loungers, deck chairs and beach umbrellas.

Mediterranean Cuisine on the Water's Edge

After a morning spent swimming in the shimmering sea or lazing in the Mediterranean sun, what could be better than a leisurely lunch, savoring Capri's traditional cuisine and dishes made with the freshest of fish and seafood? Da Luigi ai Faraglioni's terrace restaurant is one of the island's finest: famous not only for its breathtaking location but also for the quality of its food and wine, served from midday until late afternoon.

Those who just want a light snack or cool drink and stop by the snack bar to order soft drinks, cocktails, and fresh fruit to be savored in the shade of your own sun umbrella.

Shuttle Service in barca

At the end of the day, as the sun begins to fall, holidaymakers can make the most of the beach club's shuttle boat service that runs between Da Luigi ai Faraglioni and La Canzone del Mare in Marina Piccola, where the center of Capri is only a short bus or taxi ride away.

Da Luigi ai Faraglioni can also host beach weddings, parties, or private events against the backdrop of the Faraglioni!

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

How do you walk to Da Luigi ai Faraglioni from Capri’s Piazzetta?
Da Luigi ai Faraglioni is reachable on foot via a scenic walk that starts in the Piazzetta, continues along Via Camerelle and Via Tragara, and then descends on the signed path leading to the cove below the Faraglioni. The walk takes about 30 minutes, mostly downhill with steps near the end. The uphill return can feel demanding in hot weather, but you can take the beach club’s shuttle boat back to Marina Piccola and continue by bus or taxi. A transfer service to Marina Grande is also available.
What boat options are available to reach Da Luigi ai Faraglioni from Marina Grande and Marina Piccola?
Da Luigi ai Faraglioni runs a dedicated boat service for guests arriving either at Marina Grande or staying near Marina Piccola. From Marina Grande, transfers are available by reservation and work well for travelers arriving by hydrofoil. From Marina Piccola, the shuttle usually operates from 10:00 AM until closing and costs about 10 euros per person each way. Booking the shuttle the day before is recommended. On days with rough sea conditions, check in the morning whether the service is running.
How much does a full day at Da Luigi ai Faraglioni cost?
A full day at Da Luigi ai Faraglioni costs about 120 euros per person and includes access to the beach club, a sun bed, facilities such as showers, changing rooms, and lockers, plus a credit to use at the bar or restaurant. The front-row spots by the sea fall into a premium category with a separate fee: prices are around 600 euros per couple, varying by season and availability. Advance booking is required and must be completed through the official website.
During which months is Da Luigi ai Faraglioni open, and when is it most enjoyable to visit?
Da Luigi ai Faraglioni is a seasonal beach club open from late April to early October, with dates varying slightly each year. Peak summer weekends are the busiest and usually require earlier bookings. Many travelers prefer May, June, or September, when temperatures are pleasant, the sea is comfortable for swimming, and the overall atmosphere is calmer.
Is Da Luigi ai Faraglioni suitable for visitors with reduced mobility?
The beach club sits at the base of a rocky cliff, and the main pedestrian access involves a downhill path with steps from the Tragara viewpoint, which can be difficult for visitors with reduced mobility. Sunbathing areas are built on concrete and rock platforms, offering limited fully level space. The shuttle boat from Marina Piccola removes the uphill walk but still requires boarding and disembarking at a small jetty. In such cases, the beaches at Marina Grande or Marina Piccola are more suitable alternatives.
Is Da Luigi ai Faraglioni a good choice for children and families?
Da Luigi ai Faraglioni is a rocky beach club with concrete platforms and direct sea access, making it less suitable for very young children. The water deepens within just a few meters, and there are no sandy areas for play. Families with small children generally find Marina Grande or Marina Piccola more convenient.
Can you reach Da Luigi ai Faraglioni with a private boat?
Visitors arriving in Capri by private boat can anchor off Da Luigi ai Faraglioni using the mooring buoys placed offshore, keeping a safe distance from the cliffs and swimming areas. From the buoy field, the beach club’s tender brings guests to the small jetty. It is recommended to call the venue in advance to book a table and arrange the tender service.
