Protect Yourself from the Mediterranean Sun

A day at sea around Capri is one of the great pleasures of a trip to Italy, but the Mediterranean sun deserves respect, especially out on the open water.

Why the sea intensifies the sun

Reflection from the water increases your exposure, so it is easy to catch more sun on a boat than you would on land, even when a cooling breeze makes it feel milder. High-factor sunscreen, reapplied through the day, along with sunglasses and a hat, will keep you comfortable from morning to afternoon.

Stay comfortable all day

Bring plenty of water to stay hydrated, and a light cover-up for the sunniest hours. With a little preparation, you can relax and enjoy the scenery without cutting the day short.

Every itinerary on our Tours from Capri page is designed for a comfortable, relaxed day on the water.
