Sorrento Capri ferry

Every year tourists come from all over the world to visit the beautiful island of Capri, one of the most popular tourist destinations in southern Italy. As the island can only be reached by sea, there is Sorrento Capri all year round.
One of the most popular routes to Capri is from the port of Sorrento, one of the most important ports in the Campania region, with departures from Sorrento to Capri operated by several ferry companies, both in high and low season.
Caremar and Alialuro Gruson offer up to 13 daily departures throughout the year.
Other connections are offered from April to November by the shipping companies NLG, Laser Capri and Snav. Up to more than 30 daily departures during the summer months, with the first departures in the early morning and the last in the late afternoon.
The Caremar shipping company's fast ferries carry vehicles and reach Capri in about 30 minutes, while hydrofoils do not carry vehicles and take about 20 minutes.

TIP :An alternative route from the Italian mainland to Capri is the ferry connection from Naples and Naples Beverello to Capri( which is only 1.3 km from the Porta di Massa landing stage). Please note that only hydrofoils depart from Naples Beverello.

Remember to book your Sorrento Capri ferry in advance, as this route is very popular in high season and fills up quickly.
