In-Depth Information
The main evening activity is styling up and hanging out, ideally on Capri Town's Piazz-
etta. There are few nightclubs to speak of and just a few upmarket taverns. Most places
open around 10pm (don't expect a crowd until midnight), charging anywhere between €30
and €40 for admission. Many close between November and Easter.
