Capri, an island in the Tyrrhenian Sea, has long been a haven for the elite, starting with Tiberius's reign. Its stunning scenery and inviting climate lured artists and intellectuals in the 19th century and attracted the international jet set in the 1950s and 60s. The island's allure persists, though it becomes congested with up to 70,000 tourists daily in peak season. Longer stays allow visitors to enjoy the tranquility of the evenings, while lodging options are plentiful, albeit at premium rates during the summer months.
Capri has been a magnet for A-listers since Roman times, attracting everyone from Tiberius to modern intellectuals, thanks to its striking scenery and luxurious lifestyle.
In the 1950s and '60s, the international jet set discovered Capri, turning it into a symbol of the Dolce Vita with glamorous figures like Jackie O at the forefront.
Today, enjoying Capri during the evening offers a stark contrast to the day, as the island's crowded atmosphere dissipates and peace returns.
While Capri can be busy with up to 70,000 day trippers in high season, a longer stay allows visitors to appreciate its charm away from the crowds.
