Capri is an European island located in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the Sorrentine Peninsula, on the south side of the Gulf of Naples in the Campania region of Italy. The main town Capri that is located on the island shares the name. It has been a resort since the time of the Roman Republic. The place is pretty boring but you can see the Marina Piccola, the Belvedere of Tragara, the limestone crags called sea stacks that project above the sea and Anacapri. Is pretty popular to visit the Grotta Azzurra and some ruins of the Imperial Roman villas.
Capri is part of the region of Campania, Province of Naples. The town of Capri is the island’s main population centre. The island has two harbours, Marina Piccola and Marina Grande (the main port of the island). The separate comune of Anacapri is located high on the hills to the west.
