We took the "fast" ferry to the island with a travel time of about 45 minutes. The crew was very friendly and accommodating as we got on and off the boat. The travel was incredibly smooth, but we did have very calm weather. The ticketing can be a little confusing, when purchasing at the counter at the port of Naples. If at all possible, I suggest you book online and save yourself the hassle.

We aware that it is quite downhill and a number of stairs to access it. Purchase your tickets ahead of time, or you can buy your ticket at stalls just outside the marina. Easy to navigate with signage numbering each of the docks. You just need to know which dock your boat is departing from and take a short walk. Line up with others as you wait for your boat. There might be people walking around selling water. It was super hot and we got a bottle for $1 so it was a good deal for me, and much needed.

Procida!!! Best of…read morethe best places are in Italy. Biased but it's true. All our summers are spent in south of Italy and it's by the far prettiest places one can see. Procida is no secret. Or it is depends on who you ask. It's a popular vacation spot for Italians there. Postcard beauty from any and everywhere! It's one of the islands you can go from Napoli. Smaller than other counterparts. Hilly. Not Easy to walk around but you can get here by boat! Take a boat to go to a restaurant. Some places will send you a boat to pick you up. It's quite charming, scenic, stunning and peaceful. Meat is the most expensive thing on the island since it's a fishing village/ town/ island. A small steak will run you about €80 but most fresh catches are €15-€20 euros. Shellfish, Mediterranean fish! All kinds of fish! Even octopus salad here tastes better. Hot humid summer, very slow town, emerald hues everywhere! And that one clock tower! Amazing summer days are spent here! Come for a day or a week. And just enjoy. It's amazing. Oh and they filmed parts of Talented Mr Ripley here. They have signs on filming spots! Once you get here, you can identify all the scene in the movie! Hey, Jude law!

Tons of people were using an empty seat to seat their bags. Which caused quite a stir up for people that needed a seat. I noticed there was a coffee bar, but we didn't get anything. The ride to Capri was about an hour. I slept on the way back. It's air conditioned which is nice.

It was horrible. We were about tenth in line with an electronic ticket. Boarding started and the guy refused to scan our ticket. Made us wait for the entire line to fill up the ferry then sent us to the other ticket taker who had the scanner in his pocket the whole time. They tossed our luggage around like yesterday's garbage The inside of the boat was hot and quite uncomfortable. Crew all acted as if they'd never heard English in their life. The windows are so old and crusty you can't see anything out of them. And it seemed to have been oversold as several passengers were standing the whole time with all seats being occupied. Overall I'd highly recommend avoiding this ferry line. They get two stars as they managed to get departed on time. Everything else was a one star experience.

Caremar to the rescue!!…read more After all the ferries to Capri where preemptively canceled due to possible inclement weather and choppy seas, Caremar was the only ferry left standing (figuratively speaking)..partially because it is a very large ferry boat (not as affected by rocky waters) that transfers up to 400 passengers, luggage, and vehicles. After a 3 hour wait at the port, mixed with anxiety from uncertainty if the ferry would run, heavy luggage (sigh*) and a few glasses of Prosecco and wine, we made it unto the vessel. It was a rocky 20 min voyage..but we arrived safely and had plenty of seating choices due to the large area that was very clean. FYI: if you have any heavy luggage..you have to carry that bad boy up a set of stairs to the sitting area...the crew does not offer to help, or should I say, conveniently disappear when its time to embark and disembark. Special shoutout to the beautiful (and athletic) Italian woman in high wedges and cute white shorts, who helped a sista out...she put those crew members to shame lol. Anyway, we made it..and my new friends, who graciously offered for me to stay with them if the ferry canceled, gladly accompanied me to my hotel for a celebratory drink in Capri. yelp update: Actually, I learned on my return voyage that there's an area on the main (walk-in) level to stow luggage..but it would be out of sight during the ferry ride because the seating area is on the upper level, so its kinda at your your risk. But the chance of people stealing your heavy luggage (especially without being noticed) is slim to none. And 2 gracious crew members did help me with my luggage as I disembarked..so they do help!

I spoke to Shana and she was straightforward, helpful, and priced fairly. She arranged for a boat to pick us up from lunch/beach at Griglio di Tiberio and take us to the grottos. I wish I had done this INSTEAD of taking a tour on one of the boats with other people. Since we had 8 in our party, it made much more sense to have a private captain (Capitan Enzo was friendly and relaxed - a good driver on a fast boat) who took us to all the grottos (Blue Grotto was closed that day).

From there we got back on the bus and went down to Capri where we were taken on lemoncello tasting, chocolate tasting and some other goodies. From there we went to the Augustus Gardens which were absolutely beautiful. A little more shopping, back on the bus to the ferry and back to mainland with wonderful memories.

We bought tickets from their website in May and their site clearly states that changes could be made 4 hours prior to departure. We went to the ticket office at 8:00 to change the time of a return trip at 17:00. We explicitly asked to do it then, but the ticket cashier brusquely said that changes to the return trip can be made at the destination. When we arrived at the destination, the ticket cashier said that we had to call the main office to make changes. We called the main office and were hung up on twice because the staff couldn't speak English or couldn't be bothered to help us. We eventually found someone, who said we couldn't make changes because we checked in already. We had to spend another $50USD in order to get back to our home port on time. Please be smart and avoid this scheming, underhanded company. Here's the link to their FAQ: https://link.snav.it/en/faq.html. Their T&Cs never stated anything about changes.

If you are looking for an almost private boating experience, look no further. While a little more expensive than the other places lined up and down the beach, what made my mind up was that there would only be 10-12 people on our boat. The cost to Capril was $70 a person for the day and know that they bring towels and beverages so all you need to do is come prepared to enjoy a great day out on the water (wear your swim suit and you can swim right off the boat!) The boat leaves Positano around 9am on most days. They show you a range of sights along the way to Capri like the white grotto, the green grotto, the lighthouse, Villa Malaparte and you get off the boat at Marina Grande. You then have about 3 hours on the island before returning back to Positano. There is a stop both on the way there and on the way back to swim off the boat and enjoy the beautiful Mediterranean! A wonderful way to see the Amalfi Coast- this was one of my favorite days of my entire trip!
