I Faraglioni, Capri

#1 of 59 in Things to do in Capri
Geologic Formation Nature / Park
Just off the coast of Capri, I Faraglioni is one of Italy's most striking geological formations. The tallest of this chain of sea stacks, known as Stella, rises 109 m (357.6 ft) above the ocean. Over millions of years, the wind and surf have sculpted these figures out of solid rock. For a closer look, take one of the boat tours launched from Capri. Some of the boats pass under one formation's archway. You also can find views of the stacks rom high points around the city, including from the Gardens of Augustus. Plan your visit to I Faraglioni and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Capri vacation route planner.

  • I don't think there can be words so large that we can describe the beauty of the stacks. Pass beneath them is a unique and rare emotion, I wish all of you can try it.

Where to stay in Capri

A popular island retreat, Capri offers some of the world's finest seaside lodging options. Most luxury and boutique hotels are located along the water, offering top-notch amenities and access to the best beaches. This tiny island has a big tourist following, which means that in high season even the most economic hotels might cost as much as four- or five-star establishments on the mainland. To avoid the high costs of big chains, consider booking your stay at a traditional B&B farther away from the island's main tourist areas.
