Capri

For centuries, this small southern Italian island has attracted plenty of famous faces, from emperors to movie stars, due to its gorgeous scenery. Some of Capri’s most amazing sights are best seen by boat, including the Faraglioni rock formations and the Blue Grotto, where sunlight turns the water into an unbelievably vivid shade of blue. On land, Villa Jovis, formerly inhabited by Roman emperor Tiberius, and the Gardens of Augustus provide more spectacular views. And in the town center, visitors will find high-end shops and restaurants.
