The Basics

The Faraglioni are located just off the coastline of Capri and can be admired from several viewpoints or up close via boat tours. Their proximity to the island makes them a must-see for visitors. Whether viewed from the Gardens of Augustus, a beach club, or a boat, these natural wonders showcase Capri’s unique beauty. Many visitors incorporate the Faraglioni into their island tours or seaside experiences.

 

Things to Know Before You Go

For a truly memorable experience, consider a boat tour that passes through the arch of Faraglione di Mezzo. This is a popular activity, so booking in advance during peak seasons is advisable. Swimming is possible near the rocks, but access depends on sea conditions. Bring a camera to capture the stunning vistas!

 

How to Get There

The Faraglioni can be accessed by boat tours departing from Marina Grande or private charters. Land-based travelers can hike to the Belvedere Tragara viewpoint or visit nearby beach clubs like La Fontelina, offering close-up views.

 

When to Get There

Morning light beautifully highlights the rocks, making it an ideal time for photography. For a romantic ambiance, visit in the late afternoon or during sunset. Summer months offer the best visibility and warm waters, perfect for a swim.
