La Fontelina - Capri. One of the most exclusive beach clubs and restaurants in the whole of Italy, Capri's Fontelina is a resting at the foot of the island's legendary Faraglioni. It is also a historical place, where the Roman emperors residing on Capri once came to bathe.

Although more than 50 years have passed since they first opened their small sea-edge eatery, the Arcucci and Gargiulo families continue to run the Fontelina with the very same passion and enthusiasm. 

Fontelina is situated opposite Capri's Faraglioni. You can reach the beach club on foot, via the little path which commences next to the Tragara viewing point. More on La Fontelina
