How much does the ferry from Naples to Capri cost?
Ferry prices from Naples to Capri move with the season and the vessel: the same crossing can cost a fraction on the conventional ferry in April of what the high-speed boat costs on an August weekend. Rather than quote a figure that will be wrong next week, we look up the fare for the day you want to sail and send it by WhatsApp before you decide.
What we include in the price we send: the ticket for each passenger, any reserved seat or cabin you asked for, port taxes, and our service - checking the timetable, booking, sending the e-ticket and answering questions before and during the crossing.
Cheapest ferry ticket from Naples to Capri: how to pay less
The cheapest ferry ticket from Naples to Capri is usually on the conventional ferry, booked early, on a weekday outside the peak weeks. These are the rules our team applies:
- Book early for July, August, Easter and holiday weekends, when sailings sell out and fares rise
- Travel on a weekday - Friday and Sunday sailings carry the highest fares
- Let us know if your dates are flexible; moving by a day often changes the fare
- Compare operators - on this route the cheapest company changes with the date
- Travel light - some fast boats limit luggage per passenger
- Book the return with the outbound - open returns and round-trip fares are cheaper on many operators
Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which sailing is the cheapest ferry from Naples to Capri that day and how much a different day would save.
How to book ferry tickets from Naples to Capri with Haqqi Tours
Booking a ferry from Naples to Capri with us takes minutes and one conversation. Fill in the short form on this page with your date, one-way or return, the number of adults and children. Our booking desk messages you on WhatsApp to check your booking: we finalise the sailings that day, the vessel, the seats or cabin and the cost. You choose, we book, and the e-ticket arrives in the same chat.
- Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children
- Step 2 - we message you in the WhatsApp chat with the sailings, vessels, seats or cabins and the cost
- Step 3 - you confirm the sailing you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
- Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Capri
Because a person books it, we can line the Naples to Capri ferry up with a flight or a train the same day, choose the sailing that leaves a safe margin, and warn you if the weather forecast makes the fast boat a risk.
Timetable and season of the Naples to Capri ferry
The Naples to Capri ferry timetable is seasonal: high summer brings the fullest schedule and the earliest sell-outs; spring and autumn have fewer boats and better fares; winter runs a reduced service on many crossings. The crossing itself takes about 50 minutes. Tell us the day and we send the sailings, and we flag the ones most exposed to a cancellation in bad weather.
Sea conditions matter on this route: strong winds can delay or cancel high-speed boats while the conventional ferries keep sailing. When the forecast is poor we tell you and, if you prefer, book the steadier vessel.
Departure: Naples Molo Beverello (fast boats) or Calata Porta di Massa (car ferry)
Your crossing starts at Naples Molo Beverello (fast boats) or Calata Porta di Massa (car ferry). Large ports have several gates and the boarding gate is announced on the boards and on the ticket; we send the gate and the check-in time with your confirmation. A private transfer with Haqqi Tours takes you and the luggage to the right gate.
- Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your accommodation in Naples to the port on request
- Ask us which gate or terminal your sailing uses - big ports have several
- Foot passengers: at the port 45-60 minutes before departure
- Keep the e-ticket and the ID or passport used for booking together
Arrival: Marina Grande, Capri
Arrival is at Marina Grande, Capri. Capri is the island of the Blue Grotto, the Faraglioni rocks and the Piazzetta, a short boat ride from Naples and Sorrento. We can have a Haqqi Tours driver at the pier with your name, or tell you the best way to your hotel by bus or taxi. If you brought the car, the road out of the port is signposted for the main routes.
Many travellers continue from Capri to another island or city. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.
On board the Naples to Capri ferry: seats, cabins and luggage
On board, the ferry from Naples to Capri is relaxed: you can walk about, sit inside or on deck, eat at the café and watch the coast. Seat classes differ in space and quiet - economy, airline seats, lounge or business on the fast boats; cabins of two to four berths on overnight ferries. The fast boats are passenger-only, so bags stay with you.
- Passengers only - luggage stays with you
- Children's fares by age; infants typically free
- Pets accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels - let us know if one is travelling
- Seats: economy, airline-style, lounge and business on the fast boats; deck seats on the slow ferries
Things to do in Capri after the ferry
Capri is the island of the Blue Grotto, the Faraglioni rocks and the Piazzetta, a short boat ride from Naples and Sorrento. Arriving by sea puts you in the middle of it: the Piazzetta, the Gardens of Augustus, the Faraglioni rocks, the Blue Grotto and Villa San Michele are all reachable from Marina Grande, Capri. For the first meal, try grilled fresh fish, delizia al limone lemon cake and insalata caprese.
Haqqi Tours provides guided tours, tickets, transfers and private drivers in Capri; ask when you book the ferry and we send the options.
Best time to take the ferry from Naples to Capri
The ferry from Naples to Capri runs all year on most operators, but not equally: summer brings the most sailings and the highest fares, shoulder months the best balance, winter a reduced service. May to September has the best sea and weather, July and August are busiest with day-trippers arriving around midday, and many hotels and boat services close from November to March; ferries and the Blue Grotto depend on sea conditions. Whatever the month, booking early is the single biggest saving, especially with a car or a cabin.
Ferry or flight from Naples to Capri?
Ferry versus plane between Naples and Capri comes down to time, luggage and the view: the ferry has the deck, the luggage and the town-centre arrival; the plane has speed. On this route the ferry is the option Haqqi Tours recommends first for families and anyone with a car.
Return ferry from Capri to Naples
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return ferry ticket from Capri to Naples booked with the outbound is frequently cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the whole trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Where does the ferry arrive in Capri?
You dock at Marina Grande, Capri. Buses and taxis meet every arrival, and a Haqqi Tours driver can wait at the pier with your name if you add a transfer.
How early should I be at Naples Molo Beverello (fast boats) or Calata Porta di Massa (car ferry)?
Foot passengers 45 to 60 minutes before sailing, earlier on international routes. Some fast boats board ten minutes before departure and do not wait, so we send the exact cut-off with the ticket.
How often does the ferry from Naples to Capri run?
Every 30-60 minutes, with more sailings in summer. We send the timetable for the date you travel.
Is it better to take the ferry or fly from Naples to Capri?
For most people the ferry: it docks in the town, carries all the luggage, and typically costs less door to door. We book flights too and say which is better for your dates.
Is there a luggage limit on the ferry?
Luggage is not weighed on most ferries and is carried free within the shipping line's limits; the fast passenger boats sometimes limit the number of bags. We tell you what applies to your sailing.
Can I change or cancel my ferry ticket?
It depends on the company and the fare; most tickets can be changed for a fee, the cheapest cannot. We spell out the conditions before you confirm and handle any change for you afterwards.
Do children need a ferry ticket?
Children have their own fare bands; infants generally travel free. Give the ages on the form and we apply the right fares.
What is the cheapest ferry ticket from Naples to Capri?
Generally a foot-passenger seat on the conventional ferry, booked early, on a weekday outside the peak weeks. Let us know if your dates are flexible and we find the cheapest Naples to Capri ferry across the days you can travel.
Is the crossing rough?
Typically calm. In windy weeks the fast catamarans pitch more than the large ferries, and morning sailings tend to be the smoothest. Tell us if you suffer from seasickness and we choose the steadier vessel.

From Naples Molo Beverello (fast boats) or Calata Porta di Massa (car ferry). We send the gate and the check-in time with the ticket, and can provide a transfer from your hotel to the port.
Do I need a passport for this ferry?
Carry an ID or passport; it is required on many sailings and checked at the port on international crossings. We tell you what applies when we confirm.

Complete the form above with your date, one-way or return and the number of passengers. Haqqi Tours messages you in the WhatsApp chat with the sailings, vessels and cost; you confirm, we book and send the electronic ticket.
