Now you can admire the island from your yacht charter and swim in its natural preserved marine ecosystem. These creatures were said to be able to lure sailors with their enchanting singing voices.
The island of Capri is considered the Pearl of the Mediterranean and should only be visited by yacht. Located just off the Amalfi Coast this has been a popular spot for elite travelers since the 1950s.
