Faraglioni
Guide to the iconic Faraglioni rocks of Capri with information about where you can see them from along with photos.
Without a doubt the iconic image of Capri (and indeed of the Capri Review logo!) is that of the Faraglioni rocks that lie on its southern coast opposite the Belevedere di Tragara which is one of just many places on the island that they can be viewed from.
The three rocks are named Stella, Mezzo and Scopolo. The tallest of the three, Stella which is the only one still attached to the island stands at 109 metres. The second tallest is Scopolo which is the furthest out to sea while the one in the middle, Mezzo offers a real treat as you can sail right through the middle of it, either when renting a private boat or by taking one of the Island Boat Tours from Marina Grande. Other notable places that you can view the rocks from include the Capri Philosophical Park, Augustus Gardens, Mount Solaro or if you want to get really close, the Faraglioni walking route. |
