Since 1955, Mototoscafisti di Capri have been the boat tour company of choice for those who want to explore Capri by sea under the guide of experienced, professional skippers. Sail into breathtaking sea caves, pass under the base of the soaring Faraglioni sea stacks, round the lighthouse, and cross over the the Amalfi Coast. And don't forget a visit at the Blue Grotto, famous for its intensely blue waters reflecting light from below!
A Tour Perfectly Suited to You
The Motoscafisti boat tours depart from their dedicated pier at Marina Grande and include a number of interesting and varied itineraries: the popular classic tour around the island with a stop at the Blue Grotto; a simple transfer to the Grotto; or a tour of the Faraglioni sea stacks. Motoscafisti also offer private tours, customized to your interests and pace. If you dream of a personlized itinerary far from the beaten track, Motoscafisti can create a tour to the most secret and hidden corners of the island's coast.
All boat tours include an expert local skipper who knows all the most beautiful coves tucked along the dramatic coastal cliffs, and can share insider history and anecdotes about the island to make your trip truly unforgettable!
Private boat tours use a 10 meter "lancia" boat, the largest of the traditional island crafts, equipped with all you need to guarantee a day of relaxation and fun, including a spacious sundeck, an awning for shade during the heat of the day, an ice chest, a freshwater shower, and a traditional tomato and mozzarella "panino caprese" to snack on during your sail, upon request...
Beyond Capri
Motoscafisti also offer transfers and charters to the main destinations along the Bays of Naples and Salerno, with the option on onboard entertainment. This charter company is also the only licensed to offer boating services to cruise ships anchored off Capri.
"We booked the guided tour, but when we arrived, due to the weather the tour was suspended, we can only visit the blue cave without any money back. Very unhappy because we lost more money."
"A speaker at the rear end of the boat (upper deck) would be highly appreciated so that in any wind condition the captain's information about the island would be heard."
"We had an amazing visit! Our only complaint, when boarding the boat, we waited where we were told to stand for an hour, only to find out the boats were boarding elsewhere & we were not able to board."
Motoscafisti di Capri are located in Marina Grande, the island's harbor and fishing district. The ticket office is situated on the company's private pier, at the entrance to the docks.
Motoscafisti di Capri: "Dear Customer, when in high season we do our best to accomodate everyone, but as you might recall, it's very crowded sometimes :) We apologize for the inconvenient."
