GROTTA AZZURRA WAITING OUR TURN FOR THE LITTLE PASSAGE

An island in Italy’s Bay of Naples, Capri is famed for its rugged landscape, upscale hotels and shopping, from designer fashions to limoncello and handmade leather sandals. One of its best-known natural sites is the Blue Grotto, a dark cavern where the sea glows electric blue, the result of sunlight passing through an underwater cave. In summer, Capri's dramatic, cove-studded coastline draws many yachts. Area: 10.4 km² Location: Tyrrhenian Sea Population: 12,200 (2002) Region: Campania
