Advantages: Lots to see and do Disadvantages: not enough time
Augustus offer splendid views over the Certosa di San Giaciomo the harbour of Marina Piccola and the great Faraglioni rocks out in the bay. It was a clear sunny day when we were there and the views were breathtaking.
There was a lot more we wished we could have seen but we ran out of time and we had to make a dash to catch the funicular railway back down to the harbour. We would have liked to have visited the BlueGrotto, Villa Jovis and I would love to go on the chairlift again, maybe next time.
The trip back to Sorrento on the hydrofoil was lovely the sun was setting and making lovely reflections on the water.

Advantages: Pure beauty in a tiny island Disadvantages: VERY expensive

The meal wasn't cheap - about Euro90 for the three of us, but it was worth every euro!!
As I said I was inspired to visit Capri after reading, 'I Love Capri', in the book a lot of details were given to the BlueGrotto.
Discovered in 1826, the Grotta Azurro is one of the best-known attractions of the island and boats take a large number of tourists during the summer, when there you go through a natural cavern that is filled with an eerie light reflecting on the (very blue) water.
I had to make this journey as this could be the only time I visit Capri, I had been told it was a waste of money, but a least I could tick it off my 'to do list'.
The cost of the boat ride to the BlueGrotto is 11 Euros per person, round trip.

Advantages: Unique. Friendly. Educational. Views. Value. Location Disadvantages: Able Bodied Only. Very Crowded in Summer.
the glacier on foot though and you are in for a real treat. The ice is actually full of deep colour, mostly intense blue changing to green. This is most visible where shafts have been cut through it from above, or lumps of the sludgy grey top layer are missing.
After the previous three days of heavy snowfall, on the Sunday afternoon that we visited, there was a fresh white layer of snow topping all of the glacier that had not come into the sun, that being most of it at this time of the year.
Refreshingly, all of this you can see, without paying to do so, from a large observation platform next to the Ice Grotto shop and entrance. However, the entrance fee of 5CHF (Swiss Francs - approx. £2.50 at the then exchange rate) purchases you a much closer, more detailed look at the Rhone Glacier and indeed allows you the unique, in my experience anyway ...
