3 tours · €44 per person · ★ 5.0
Our Capri kayak tour page brings together 3 tours, each picked by hand after we read every listing and checked it was rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €44 per person for kayaking or paddleboarding between caves and beaches to €44 per group for a private boat trip. The kayak outing pairs a lesson with an instructor and guide, so you have help on the water as you paddle between caves and beaches, plus photos to take home.
A quick way to choose: you must know how to swim to kayak or paddleboard in Capri. Neither paddling trip includes a waterproof phone case, though the paddleboard outing provides a waterproof bag. For a Capri snorkeling tour by private boat, equipment is included but the Blue Grotto is excluded. The best reviewed Capri kayak tours come first below.

Choose a kayak for seated paddling or a paddleboard for standing; you propel both yourself. Shared paddling tours run 1.5 hours at €44 per person and require swimming. 3 listings sit on this page: 2 shared paddling tours from 1 operator, median 1.5 hours at €44 per person, and 1 private boat tour with no paddling listed. Both paddling tours include a lesson, a life jacket and photos, and both state an operator weight limit. 3 of the 3 listings run up to three hours. The boat option is the private Capri boat tour with swimming and snorkelling, 3 hours at €380 per boat, rated 5 from 36 reviews, which you divide by your party size.
Treat paddling as a half morning, not your day on Capri: both shared tours run 1.5 hours at €44 per person, and the private boat is the longer option at 3 hours. Shared paddling listings have a median duration of 1.5 hours and a median fare of €44 per person, with photos included. Their inclusion lists do not state food or drinks. The private Capri boat with swimming and snorkelling costs €380 per boat, rated 5 from 36 reviews. It runs 3 hours and includes bottled water and soft drinks, but no paddling.
You have to be able to swim, but you do not need paddling experience: both shared listings include a lesson, a life jacket and photos, and both state an operator weight limit. Swimming ability is stated by the paddling listings, not by the rubric: the 2 shared tours both ask that you can swim, both apply an operator weight limit and both hand you the gear, median 1.5 hours at €44 per person. Wheelchair access is operator marked on none of 3 and the stroller and infant filter catches 1 of 3, so filter first and confirm with the operator. If you would rather not paddle, the private Capri boat tour swims and snorkels instead, rated 5 from 36 reviews at €380 per boat.

Choose the Blue Grotto rubric if cave entry is your goal. The shared kayak and paddleboard tours here describe coastal caves and beaches and do not include Blue Grotto admission. The 2 shared paddling listings describe coastal caves without naming a fixed itinerary; they do not include Blue Grotto admission. The private Capri boat with swimming and snorkelling also excludes the cave ticket at €380 per boat, rated 5 from 36 reviews. It is a motorboat, not a paddling trip. Blue Grotto entry uses a rowboat, and some tours on the grotto page include its ticket.
For a child who cannot swim, skip the shared paddling tours: swimming is required. For a child who can swim, these listings do not establish an age cutoff. The 2 shared paddling tours require swimming and state an operator weight limit. Stroller and infant acceptance is marked on none of 2 shared listings; this is not an age rule. The private Capri boat with swimming and snorkelling carries that acceptance mark at €380 per boat, rated 5 from 36 reviews. Its flag does not establish suitability for a particular child or for entering the water.
