Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra)

The Blue Grotto, or Grotta Azzurra, is a captivating sea cave on the island of Capri, situated in Italy’s Bay of Naples. To access this natural wonder, visitors must board a small rowboat and pass through a low, narrow opening. The grotto’s name comes from the bright blue light that filters through an underwater opening, casting a mesmerizing turquoise glow on the water inside. Once inside, you can take a few photos to capture the ethereal light and, if you’re fortunate, enjoy a brief Italian serenade performed by one of the rowers.
