Address
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.

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.
