Ferry Capri to Sorrento

[toseaornottosea]

Does anyone know how late the ferries run from Capri to Sorrento starting in mid-April?

Not very late, they don't run after dark.  Right now the last return to Sorrento is at 18:40, there might be one later in April but not much later.

Not surprised to hear that but disappointed.   Didn't know that they don't run at night.  I find that odd.

The break even load for a ferry trip is pretty high, there simply isn't enough interest in night crossings to offset the cost.

euro cruiser thanks for your input.  Might you by any chance know of a modestly price water taxi service from Capri to Sorrento?  We will be on a cruise that over nights in Sorrento and we are hoping to spend some time in Capri and have dinner there but unless we can find a way to get back to Sorrento at night the only other alternative I can think of is to stay over night in a hotel in Capri and I doubt if that will be at a modest cost.

You can easily find a hotel on Capri for less than a private water transfer back to Sorrento, which run around 400 euro.

Maybe you could post on the roll call for your sailing and find other couples who also want to stay on Capri for dinner before returning to the ship.  Split among a group (most of these boats take between 6 - 12 passengers) it becomes more affordable.

Good suggestion.  Wish I had thought of that.
