A marine legacy that has evolved through the generations

The story began with the legendary Gennarino, the first to reveal the statues hidden in the Blue Grotto. He enthusiastically began sharing Capri's treasures with visitors, back in an era when people still used rowboats. Nowadays the company continues this legacy under the leadership of Wendy (his daughter), who—together with a group of experienced young sailors—welcomes guests from every corner of the world, offering them the chance to discover and enjoy the island's wonders.

With a fleet of over 20 boats, Capri Whales offers various experiences at sea with a skipper:

Meeting Points

Marina Grande: The meeting point for Capri Whales excursions departing from Marina Grande is near the Gennarino and Wendy shop (see map), easily recognizable by its yellow awning, located next to the funicular. The store offers swimsuits for children and adults, towels, sunscreen, hats, beach bags, and more; so if you need anything before your tour, you can purchase it there! The shop also has restrooms and changing rooms available before and after excursions.

Marina Piccola: Capri Whales also has a location in Marina Piccola on to the stairs leading to the beach, right under the church and bus stop on via Mulo 53.

We rented a boat last July and this July and both experiences were great. They are conveniently located right where the ferry dropped us off. The staff were very nice and informative. We sailed all around the island and had a beautiful day. This is how to see Capri!

It was a great choice of having a full boat trip without skipper, as we traveled around capri swimming here and there and skipping the hastle and bustle during the day in capri , the boat was easy to drive and the process of taking the boat and returning were smooth and fast. Expect to pay a 25 euros extra for fuel at the end of the trip.

Such a bad experience with Capri Whales at wild waves !!!

We rent private Aprea boat from Capri Whales but the tour was abnormal and thr boat shaked us very badly all along the route. Even thought I said the ferry shaked a lot, Stefano never warned about this wavy and annoying weather condition. It was a complete bad experience and I got sick and threw out everything out of my stomach. 2 children got also very sick and this was completely big disappointment. What would they if I fainted because of sickness and scarring? I guess they wouldn’t cate and look at what they earned !! The captain was also very young and rude. So I don’t advise.
