Capri!

My group took a ferry from Naples to the island of Capri. There is a boat tour ticket booth on the dock (there is only one large dock on the small island). The boat tours, which are on private boat that holds about 20 people, are easy to find.

The island, which lacks any real beaches, is surrounded by a mountainous coast of steep rocks. Still, the sheer beauty is amazing. Every inch of the island is covered with lush greenery and a gorgeous array of flowers. The gentle elegance of the place stands out when juxtaposed with the cold caves and cliffs.

The boat tour is worthwhile because you get to really see the island, not just the stores. I have never been to sit on a beach and tan on vacation. I like absorbing culture and learning something new. The boat tour is great in that the guide gives you the history and interesting facts of Capri.

The beauty of this island is only matched by the prices of its stores. The island is one city, and most of its shopping is in the town square. In the center, there is a large clock tower, and all around it are many small shops, as well stores like Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton, etc.
