Nightlife

At night Capri is all about seeing and being seen and there are two places that stand out as the best. One is the Piazetta. This is the main square and there are four outdoor cafes from where you can watch the comings and goings of all, including the locals. The other is the terrace of the Hotel Quisisana. It may be a bit expensive but the show is great.
