Nice views and a good option for an afternoon beach, as you will have sun for 2 hours longer, in comparison with other points on the island.

What a stunning position for the Lighthouse. Really stands out as you would expect but this is a very classic style and colour. Well worth a visit!

I don't think you can go inside (it's used by the military now but there is a small nearby beach with a pool and bar) but it's beautiful to look at from both the old forts trail and the restaurant Da Gelsomina in the cliffs above

It is s a must to see on Capri. The road to the lighthouse is spectacular and the view from the cliffs to the sea and the rocky beach are unforgettable.

Very beautiful lighthouse and area. We arrived by rented scooter and enjoyed a walk around the grounds and down to the "beach" which is actually just a small natural harbor and a giant slanted piece of island down into the water. There seemed to be a couple of restaurants down near the water. When we visited, it was very quiet with few visitors. A nice place to visit.

Being 4 days on the island we spend 3 afternoons here. The reasons for that: wonderful beach in a bay with calm and crustal waters, nice bars and facilities and of course stunning views with lighthouse especially on the sunset.
Come here closer to the evening around 5pm and you manage to be in the sun, to swim, have cocktails while watching perfect sunsets.
Bus connection here is very good.

This will be one of the points that your boat captain will talk about as you cruise around this lovely island.

Best place on the island to watch the sunset. There are even a couple of bars so you can have a drink while enjoying watching the sun sink into the ocean. Then you can party on.
To get there, take the bus from Anacapri. The bus is different from the ones that take you to Capri and cost 2 euro each way. Pay on the bus. Check the schedule as you don't want to miss the bus on the way back.

Due to its role as militar area Punta Carena remained relatively undeveloped in comparison to other areas of Capri. The landscape from the lighthouse is wonderfull, you can enjoy a bath in cristal clear water and if you like hiking you can take the trail of the "fortini" a 3 hours walk with breathtaking views of the coast.

Ma la sera al faro la domenica è una serata? Si paga per entrare? Fino a che ora è?

Ciao,
io sono stato lì il pomeriggio a guardare il tramonto, che secondo me è qualcosa di fantastico. La sera non so se è aperto fino a tardi (probabilmente si), comunque per entrare non bisogna pagare niente. È come un bar, paghi quello che consumi.
