Marina Grande

Marina Grande is a small fishing port located on the island of Capri in Italy. It is where the ferry boats arrive from Naples and Sorrento, as well as from other cities on the Italian mainland. Visitors to the port of Marina Grande can enjoy sweeping views of the Gulf of Naples and a pleasant walk along the seaside from the port up to the top of the hill known as Punta Carena. In contrast to the chic Monte Solaro and Via Krupp, Marina Grande is the less-developed, more authentic area of the island, with narrow, bustling streets along the port. Along with colorful fishing boats, visitors can find charming little local shops, as well as taverns and eateries serving up delicious regional specialties. It's a great place to wander, observe life on the island, and experience true Mediterranean culture.
