Capri
13,400
A stark mass of limestone rock rising sheerly through impossibly blue water, Capri (pro-
nounced
ca
-pri) is the perfect microcosm of Mediterranean appeal - a smooth cocktail of
vogueish piazzas and cool cafes, Roman ruins, rugged seascapes and holidaying VIPs.
While it's also a popular day-trip destination, consider staying a couple of nights to explore
beyond Capri Town and its uphill rival Anacapri. It's here, in Capri's hinterland, that the is-
land really seduces with its overgrown vegetable plots, sun-bleached stucco and indescrib-
ably beautiful walking trails.
