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 came to see blue grotto and when we arrived we were told it would be 2 hour wait. We felt pressured by the guide to say no as the rest of the boat did not want to wait that long. Disappointed "
"I loved the tour My partner is not used to the blue sea, so he was impressed. The tour guide spoke Italian, English and attempted Spanish. The crew scared us with the 2 hrs wait to Blue Grotto so skip"
"We were of the unlucky ones that couldn't go in the blue grotto due to the rough sees, were so looking forward to it, but no ones fault. Boat trip was great way to see the island."
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.
