Capri (island) (1 of 1)

Cliffs, cafes, villas, VIPs and vistas - Capri has charmed Roman emperors, Russian revolutionaries and a who's who of showbiz stars. A stark mass of limestone rock that sheers up through impossibly blue water, it's the perfect microcosm of Mediterranean appeal - a smooth cocktail of chichi piazzas and cool cafes, Roman ruins and rugged seascapes.

With its whitewashed stone buildings and tiny, car-free streets, Capri Town seems more film set than real life. A diminutive model of upmarket Mediterranean chic, it's a pristine mix of luxury hotels, expensive bars, restaurants and designer boutiques. In summer its toy-town streets swell with crowds of curious, camera-wielding daytrippers and gangs of the glossy rich.
