Exclusive Boat Rental in Capri

Most private rentals include a professional skipper, fuel for a standard island circuit, bottled water, and towels. Higher-end charters often add snacks, prosecco, and snorkeling equipment. Always check your specific booking confirmation, as some larger yachts may bill fuel and port fees separately based on actual usage during your trip.

If you are booking a boat with a skipper, no license or experience is required. For bareboat rentals (driving yourself), Italian law allows you to operate boats with engines under 40hp without a license. However, for more powerful vessels, you must provide a valid international boating certificate. We generally recommend a skippered charter to truly relax.

Yes, almost all boat tours include a stop at the Blue Grotto. However, please note that the entrance fee is paid separately to the local rowboat operators, as large boats cannot enter the cave. Entry is also highly dependent on weather and sea conditions; if the tide is too high, the cave remains closed for safety.

A full circumnavigation of Capri typically takes about 3 to 4 hours, allowing time for photos and a couple of swim stops. We highly recommend a full-day 8-hour rental if you wish to have a leisurely lunch at a seaside restaurant like La Fontelina or if you plan to cruise over to the Amalfi Coast.
