What to Pack
What to Pack
Shorts, sandals, and wide-brimmed sun hats: this is the perfect “Capri Style” summer look, with linen and cotton holding center stage. Be careful about your choice of shoes, as walking in high heels isn't an easy feat along the steep cobblestone streets on Capri. Better to opt for flat sandals, a classic island fashion.
What to Do
What to Do
The best way to escape the high season crowds this month is to rent a boat and set sail for the tiny hidden coves and bays accessible only by sea, dive in, and cool off before stopping at a waterfront restaurant on the island of the Amalfi Coast for a plate of "spaghetti alle vongole".
By night, you can dive in... to the vibrant nightlife on Capri. Everything happens in and around the Piazzetta in Capri, where islanders and visitors gather for an aperitivo, stroll down Via Camerelle, and then meet up after dinner to dance in a "taverna".
The classic way to spend a summer's day on Capri is on the beach. Most beach clubs on the island have a limited number of spaces, so make sure you reserve in advance in high season!
A boat tour around the island is a great way to see all the beaches and beach clubs.
