After taking the earliest ferry from Positano to Capri, my husband had already settled on Laser Capri as the place to buy tickets to see the Grotto Azzurra, aka the Blue Grotto. Even for 10am, it was still quite busy on the dock. We should have stayed on the island of Capri. We paid €18 per person and were told which dock to wait at. Easy process to board the boat.
There was a decent amount of people onboard, with an entertaining navigator who made many "interesting" jokes throughout the tour. Apparently it was his first time sailing solo, and I thought he did a good job. We went around the whole island of Capri, in awe at its stunning beauty. Pictures don't do it justice, but I attempted taking videos anyways.
Finally we came upon the Blue Grotto (last stop) where it was insanely crowded at high tide... too busy to actually go in. The second half of our ticket was to get on ANOTHER boat for the Blue Grotto tour, which wasn't communicated to us until we were actually looking at the landmark. Kinda frustrating since we went through all this trouble.
We didn't feel like waiting 3-4 hours to MAYBE get into the Blue Grotto. Instead we did other tourist things and told ourselves we'd stay on Capri next time and spend more time exploring the island. Everything is absolutely beautiful, and we had a positive experience. It was just blindsiding NOT to do the tour we were looking forward to all week! read more
