But that's – literally – only half of the story "Bring water," they said when I announced I'd be hiking the Sentiero dei Fortini (Trail of Little Forts) "There's nothing out there." The six-kilometre cliffside path linking the remains of three 19th-Century Bourbon military outposts was my fourth hike on this craggy Mediterranean island wild rosemary-flocked path while dodging spiky prickly pears I realised that I'd only seen one other human in two hours aside from a rustic fountain I'd encountered a kilometre back at Fort Mèsola I'd already got lost twice before noting that the ceramic path markers were low to the ground cataloguing the area's flora and fauna – fig trees and wildflowers The terrain faded from wilderness to sheer crags I could see straight down to the sea; a 30m death drop The islands of Ischia and Procida loomed in the Gulf of Naples like the humps of petrified sea monsters And I was completely alone at the island's edge; triumphant Typically, the word Capri conjures up bougainvillea-draped villas and luxury boutique-lined streets; a yacht dock for the glitterati and the perpetual artists' muse. Paul Feig's Another Simple Favor is the latest film set against the island's opulent hotel culture and majestic cliffs and is sure to inspire a fresh slew of Capri travel dreams glamour is – literally – only half of the story The camel-humped Capri – one of Italy's three volcanic Phlegrean islands – is actually home to two distinct towns At the eastern end lies the princess Capri Town where loafer-wearing VIPs sip espresso in Piazza Umberto I; the faraglioni sea stacks winking in the distance And at Capri's western end is her rugged little sister the township of Anacapri; a sea cliff and prickly pear paradise where hiking boots replace stilettos and wild outdoorsy adventures trump wild nightlife But while Capri sees as many as 16,000 visitors a day – outnumbering the 12,900 full-time residents – the majority only visit Capri Town "There's two main reasons for this," surmises Camilla Formisano, copyeditor at Caprionline Seventy to 80% of visitors arrive on organised excursions from Naples Formisano also believes that social media plays a part: "People see the faraglioni and the piazza and think Social media has condensed the island into a single postcard." visitors spill out from the ferry and throng the bus and funicular ticket booths to jockey for place in Piazza Umberto I dodging motorised luggage carts and women in Instagrammable sundresses at every turn it's just a 15-minute bus ride to Anacapri where respite from Capri Town's day-tripper crowds and inflated prices await and you'll find the island's heart."

Download the ATC Go app to calculate bus routes and buy tickets • Aumm Aumm Family-friendly restaurant serving excellent Neapolitan-style pizza • Il Riccio Sea Lounge Jumeirah Capri Palace's luxe beach restaurant at the Blue Grotto • Ristorante La Zagara Restaurant inside a lemon grove The neighbouring vinoteca offers gourmet aperitivi Anacapri is crisscrossed by stone-walled paths that yield to sudden sea views; perfumed in springtime by blooming orange trees The terrain is hilly; locals zip by me on scooters and dusty motorised three-wheeled buggies One wrong turn and I find myself either wheezing up a steep incline or at the cliff's edge But Punta Carena is best known for its sunsets "It's the only place on Capri where the sun sets into the sea," says Formisano "Thanks to Capri's particular shape casting a golden light that envelops the landscape." It was Formisano who first directed me to the Trail of Little Forts If starting the Trail of Little Forts from the Blue Grotto take the Anacapri-Grotta Azzurra bus from Piazza della Pace until the Orrico stop then head to the Piazzetta di Orrico to start the trail Allow approximately three hours to complete The medium-difficulty trail runs along Anacapri's western coast between the Blue Grotto and Punta Carena It's possible to start the trail at either end but most trekkers begin at the Blue Grotto "So you can walk calmly immersed in nature have a swim in Mèsola cove and get to the lighthouse by afternoon; just in time to enjoy an aperitif and the magnificent spectacle of the sunset over the sea," says Formisano Piazza della Pace is the origin point for two other brilliant Anacapri hikes; the Migliera trail and Mount Solaro "The Migliera is a narrow road winding through the countryside," says Formisano "You'll come to a dramatic cliff overlook Climb the ridge to the left; you'll get a really unique view of the faraglioni." the view from Mount Solaro – Capri's highest point – is arguably the island's most famous The 13-minute chairlift up the 589m mountain provides unforgettable views of terraced vineyards with the Amalfi Coast winking in the distance Summit Mount Solaro on foot by following Via Axel Munthe to Via Salita per il Solaro keeping an eye out for stray mountain goats For any Anacapri hike, wear trail shoes; not your new Capri leather sandals. Before setting off, "stop at De Martino in Piazza Capri for an excellent panino" Most people reach Anacapri by bus, but if you're fit, consider tackling the 1.7km Scala Fenicia a 921-step flight of stone stairs chiselled into the cliffs by the Ancient Greeks; allowing countless generations of hardy Capresi to travel between Capri and Anacapri "It's not for everyone," admits Pep Minichino, founder of the Gulf of Naples-based blog, Campanica he encourages visitors to "embrace the experience All you need is a Led Zeppelin anthem [in your head] for the energy to climb the famous zig-zag staircase." the residence of the early 20th-Century Swedish physician and author Axel Munthe The sprawling mansion – built over Roman ruins featuring grand sitting rooms and Neoclassical gardens – is Anacapri's most touristed museum and my heart rate thunders as I bypass the tourist hordes at Marina Grande to undertake the trek "La Scala Fenicia is also open at night so you can go down step by step," says Minichino Aided in your descent by a cascade of lights and stars." Anacapri's most visited attraction is the Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra) famed for its magical blue phosphorescence Chaotic overtourism has engulfed this natural phenomenon and I am overwhelmed by the massive queue and dozens of tourist-packed boats bobbing outside the grotto and I am comforted as the boat captain's serenade of O Sole Mio echoes through the cave Formisano's hack: "The best way to visit the Blue Grotto is to be on the entrance steps at 09:00 not by sea from Marina Grande," she says "This way you'll be first in line You won't have to wait your turn on a rocking boat." But to truly enjoy the seas of Anacapri, Formisano suggests doing as the Capresi do: "Going down to the Blue Grotto, follow the signs for "gradola" to reach a small terrace overlooking the sea with an excellent restaurant a place frequented almost exclusively by locals." "After a day of outdoor activities in Anacapri the best way to relax is to immerse yourself in the town's authentic My B&B, Giardino dell'Arte is no sumptuous 19th-Century Capri Town palazzo but my tidy room is floored with blue and white ceramic tiles and orange blossoms spill over the wooden door The courtyard overlooks a garden and the innkeeper offers me homemade ravioli alla Caprese; round ravioli stuffed with ricotta and herbs Strolling deeper into the Boffe quarter, I come upon La Casa Rossa a bright red mansion built by the American colonel John Clay MacKowen in the early 20th Century; a quirky blend of architectural styles ranging from medieval to Middle Eastern There are generational bakeries in leaf-shaded alleys where I buy fistfuls of sour cherry pastries and pizzette But the neighbourhood stunner is the Chiesa Monumentale di San Michele Arcangelo a petite Baroque church with a show-stopping majolica floor in ochres and blues depicting the Fall of Eden The tiles can only be viewed from strategically positioned wooden boards or from the balcony above lions and hooved Biblical beasts leer up at me It's my favourite view island… until the rooftops a palatial structure dating to 1850 whose clifftop terrace seems to extend into the sea and wind up on their rooftop bars as the sun sinks pink and purple into the Gulf of Naples throwing Ischia and Procida into bas relief crossing my dusty ankles in their hiking boots; princess and athlete all at once If you liked this story, sign up for The Essential List newsletter – a handpicked selection of features For more Travel stories from the BBC, follow us on Facebook, X and Instagram.

Giuseppe and Maria Zuozo founded Anacapri Italian Restaurant in 1990 after falling in love with Miami during a vacation with Giuseppe bringing years of restaurant experience from New York and New Jersey Pinecrest was not yet an incorporated village at the time—it officially became one in 1996 they decided Miami could use “a good Italian restaurant,” and Anacapri was born Giuseppe recalls when Miami had little development Miami and Pinecrest have become bustling metropolises He’s also noticed a demographic shift—people now prefer upscale dining over traditional mom-and-pop restaurants many appreciate the comfort of a homemade meal—what he calls “mama’s food.” “Comfort food always makes you feel good,” he said They relied on minimal advertising and some mention in local newspapers they expanded Anacapri by adding an adjoining Italian market to import authentic products a wall is lined with bottles—Barolos and Brunellos from Italy Anacapri sells wines at retail prices without the typical markup In addition to its market and regular service Running a family-owned restaurant for decades comes with many challenges and incredibly long hours the demands of the business mean he doesn’t always get to spend as much time with them as he’d like With Anacapri open nearly every day except Mondays Success over 35 years doesn’t come without sacrifice “If you want to be successful for this long Giuseppe is the first to arrive and last to leave and staff—another key to the business’s success Giuseppe is grateful to celebrate with his family he has built lasting relationships—many customers he met as children now return with families of their own a longtime customer stopped by with his daughter after a dentist appointment—to say hello a testament to Anacapri’s deep community ties 35 years in business means “you did something good in your life He is especially thankful for his wife and son The family’s goal has always been simple: “We try our best to serve the best quality and the best of everything,” Giuseppe said he hopes Anacapri will leave a lasting legacy in Miami’s dining scene—a place where customers feel welcomed Anacapri Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar is located at 12669 S It is open for lunch Tuesday through Friday from 11:30 a.m for dinner Tuesday to Thursday from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. Friday to Saturday from 5:00 to 11:00 p.m. For information, call 305-232-8001 or visit www.anacaprimiami.com look no further than Miami Community Newspapers This Miami online group of newspapers covers a variety of topics about the local community and beyond Miami’s Community Newspapers offers daily news podcasts and other multimedia content to keep readers informed With topics ranging from local news to community events Miami’s Community Newspapers is the ideal source for staying up to date with the latest news and happenings in the area This family-owned media company publishes more than a dozen neighborhood publications as well as distributing them in print throughout Miami Dade County from Aventura Each online publication and print editions provide comprehensive coverage of local news and local initiatives within its respective community Additionally, the newspaper has exclusive Miami community podcasts, providing listeners with an in-depth look into Miami’s culture.

change “I didn’t feel like staying in a small little room sitting at a desk all day long,” Zuozo said “I had a lot of friends that owned restaurants and worked in the restaurant business I worked during my school at a lot of restaurants.” Despite facing many challenges at the start Zuozo grew his holdings from one restaurant to five After a few complications with management and landlords he decided to focus on one location—one restaurant—at a time Anacapri is not only a hub for traditional fare but for merchandise as well boasting a full-fledged market adjacent to the restaurant and wine

to being disappointed the first time I stepped off the ferry at Marina Grande, one baking late August afternoon some 12 years ago The quay was lined with tacky souvenir shops cheap bars and restaurants touting fixed-price menù turistico deals Da Luigi beach club in CapriAna LinaresI later learned that in high season an average of 20,000 day-trippers pile onto the island every day; I also learned how they can be avoided Capri is the sort of place that grows on you and it has been growing in my affections ever since that first visit but it takes a bit of effort: you need to stay several nights (day visitors all leave by late afternoon) and you really need to go out of season In May, the carpets of wildflowers add glorious colours to the wild scenery, but the sea is chilly; I personally prefer late September or early October when the evenings are balmy the water is still warm and there is a sense that things are calming down to a seductively easy pace Capri.Matthew

since antiquity) in 1826 by the German poet August Kopisch There's a lot of getting in and out of little boats and waiting around involved You can also swim into the cave from the rocks below Anacapri

Dallas-based Megatel Homes will soon begin construction of the lagoon amenity at the AnaCapri community near the intersection of Highway 75 and Hackberry Drive and aims to open it by the end of this year, Megatel vice president Steve Maglisceau told Anna City Council in a presentation on the development Tuesday evening The AnaCapri development will have more than 1,200 single-family homes as well as 600 beach-themed apartments that will surround the lagoon The company also plans to operate entertainment space around the lagoon including restaurants The lagoon will be 2.3 acres and entertainment space around the lagoon will span 40,000 square feet, according to the Anna Economic Development Corp.

Confocal z-stack acquisition and 2D reconstruction of an elongated (left) or fragmented (fissed, right) mitochondrial network of Jurkat single cells transfected with mtYFP (scale bar, 5 μm). Picture modified from (34) Noteworthy is that Drp1 knockout (KO) T cells are deficient in cell migration even though their metabolism is shifted toward an OXPHOS-based metabolism ideally producing more ATP to fuel the myosin II which should drive a higher migration rate This apparent paradox underlines the cell’s need to better modulate the relocation of the mitochondria for a local subcellular production of mitochondrial ATP rather than for a general mitochondria functionality these findings shed light on a new and crucial role for mitochondrial dynamics in T cell differentiation and function and important therapeutic opportunities through pharmacological or genetic manipulation of mitochondria-shaping proteins Such tiny and highly specialized Treg populations are settled in locations that are poorly accessible to the circulation and probably may have acquired better capacities to survive and self-renew locally may be particularly prone to Treg replenishment from the

Flanked by mountains and lined with pastel-painted cafés and bars the waterfront at Marina Grande has plenty of rustic Italian charm It is also reported to be the most expensive marina in the world its berths booked months in advance by summer visitors who use the island of Capri as a staging post for tours of the Amalfi Coast And – no surprises here – Capri’s property market is equally oversubscribed real estate agent at Engel & Völkers Capri-Amalfi says she has a number of buyers eager to buy a home close to vibrant Capri town itself who are willing to wait years for the right property The desire for space and solitude that emerged during the Covid-19 pandemic means that Anacapri has also begun to attract buyers from around the world resulting in strong price growth in recent years has been a holiday resort since Roman times and later acquired a slightly bohemian reputation bolstered by visitors and residents such as Oscar Wilde who all fell for the island’s unique atmosphere and extravagant natural beauty Around half of Carrani’s buyers are islanders who have amassed great wealth through Capri’s thriving tourist industry and are keen to invest in large estates “On Capri we have one of the highest incomes in Italy,” she says Another quarter per cent come from cities on mainland Italy – nearby Naples who Carrani notes often work in either finance or the film and music industries giving them the freedom to spend weeks at a time at their holiday homes around the world head of residential for Italy Sotheby’s International Realty sees a larger proportion of international buyers on Capri – around 70 per cent of the homes sold by her team go to middle-aged Americans and Northern Europeans although she notes that the number of Italian buyers is increasing reachable second home by the sea,” she says most buyers are after a holiday home and will rent their properties out when not in situ Buyers keen to be close to the action in Capri town must budget an average of between €11,000 and €13,000 (£9,300 and £11,000) per square metre for a property But those looking for a piece of really prime real estate covet Capri’s most exclusive street which snakes down from the town to the island’s southeast coast “A Canadian buyer recently paid around €17,000 per square metre for a house there in need of complete renovation,” says Carrani Another key location is Via Marina Piccola prized for its views of the iconic Faraglioni – three spurs of rock that rise out of the sea off the island’s south coast “There was one sale which went beyond €20,000 per square metre and the views were beautiful,” Carrani says “Clients are willing to wait two to three years to find the right property.” The other option is to search for a home around Anacapri where average prices stand somewhat lower at between €6,000 and €9,000 per square metre and buyers can pick up a substantial villa from around €2 million and there is a very limited supply of homes,” says Carrani “Anacapri has become more interesting because you can get more space It is also less fancy and visited by fewer tourists Giorgolo observes another geographical divide between first-time buyers and long-time aficionados “The new buyers prefer destinations reached by car choose locations that are only accessible by walking.” house prices have struggled to fully recover from the global financial crisis which hit relatively late here in 2012 and 2013 Carrani says limited stock plus high demand means prices around Capri town have remained comparatively stable and the renewed interest in Anacapri has stimulated growth She estimates that since she came to live on the island six years ago prices have increased by around 50 per cent proving that despite a lethargic national property market The recently renovated seven-bedroom property measures a spacious 790m2 The 231m2 house is designed in the traditional Capri style and is surrounded by a terraced garden with a swimming pool First published in the April 2024 issue of BOAT International.

perhaps a few decades out of date but free of consumption-oriented agenda and prefab itineraries The “grand and ultimate indifference of nature” especially on this less-developed side of the island A three-hour walk on a perfect afternoon between the mediaeval ruins of the Sentiero dei Fortini – Path of Forts – calls for a total of three buonaseras exchanged with other hikers The comparative quietude is owed partly to the scarcity of beaches on the island’s craggy western edge access to the water gained by a rocky clamber or a plummet from sheer limestone cliffs Arriving on foot at the Grotta Azzurra after tour-boat hours our plans of illicitly swimming inside are dashed by high-tide waves smashing the rocks wrenching at the rusted chain used by boatmen to guide vessels through the barely visible opening anachronistic pathos of an outer-suburban milk bar on a Sunday afternoon Parallel to Capri’s ongoing reputation as a hedonistic utopia it harboured an illustrious litany of writers intellectuals and political exiles that included the likes of Rilke Contemporary to such grande personaggi was Axel Munthe animal sympathiser and notorious self-mythologiser who purportedly built Villa San Michele following the floor plan of a desiccated Tiberian villa Munthe acquired Barbarossa Mountain in a bid to provide sanctuary for the island’s migratory birds negotiating their protection through and beyond the Mussolini years The island provides first landfall for many species migrating between Scandinavia and tropical North Africa Given their periodic density on the small green fleck of island they were once caught in great numbers and sold as exotic fare landing on plates across mainland Italy and France The Capri Bird Observatory still operates from the ruins of 11th-century Castello Barbarossa renamed after the 16th-century pirate Redbeard took a shine to it ornithologists have timed their yearly visits to coincide with the migratory high season scratching out their own rugged lodgings amid the ruins they unfurl mist nets to gently snare passing orioles and other warblers briefly waylaying the tiny trans-Mediterraneans for banding and data-gathering before sending them on their way augurs would be called upon to interpret the future from the behaviours of birds reading divine will in flight and feeding patterns The founding of Rome is said to have hinged on a standoff of competitive augury: Remus saw six vultures; Romulus 12 While ornithology is generally less concerned with the capriciousness of gods its inferences are often no less pertinent to the rise and fall of empires Birds are among the most visible of environmental indicators and for the veteran ornithologists of Capri decades of patient observation from this majestic opera box amount to a bleak prospect – the effects of climate change are gravely apparent Migratory numbers have dwindled critically in recent years and each season sees fewer birds making it as far as Capri the onsite ornithologists have only caught two Together with a pair of British swift conservationists and an intrepidly outfitted party of senior German women we make the short steep hike towards the ruins to meet Dario Piacentini an Italian ringer/ornithologist who has been journeying to Capri from his home in Bologna for nearly three decades From a small white cotton bag he produces a delicate subalpine warbler with fiery red-ringed eyes the passage of the these tiny birds across vast stretches of ocean of cruel vectors complicated by steeply declining food sources “…some of them don’t make it,” substitutes the translator Piacentini has delayed his data-gathering for our benefit The bird is cupped cosily in his mason’s paw cohabitant to a pen that it is intermittently (and dexterously) exchanged for; its tiny head and delicate legs poking out between Dario’s fingers as he marks figures into a ledger The warbler seems mostly resigned to these indignities giving an occasional peck or consternated flap when opportunity allows There’s a collective yelp of horror as the bird is banded from those not close enough to see the pliers are particular to the task – with graduated holes for different leg widths – and so perhaps think it a torturous experience seemingly unfazed by such dramatic commentary completes the task he has been performing for decades puffing gently to ruffle the downy belly feathers “Like one of the earliest gods breathing life into a prototype,” reflects my partner who has been listing into such Homeric musings since sheering around the Amalfi coast road in a freshly scratched rental an inch or two from pitching into the wine-dark sea Piacentini’s disarmingly tender action is to gauge the bird’s fat stores its fuel reserves for the second leg of the journey After being weighed inside a rolled-up cone of graph paper the warbler flies away to a smattering of relieved applause Share this subscriber exclusive article with a friend or family member using share credits use share credits to share this article with friend or family Share credits renew each month and allow a non-subscriber to read a full article when you thought you were writing about another town the strangers’ weekender filled with gaudy holiday house tack Subscribe to The Saturday Paper for less than $2.30 a week Phone 1800 077 514 Email [email protected] Email [email protected] © 2025 The Saturday Paper.
