Italy: Capri: The Blue Cave

Capri Island most famous, or the only worthwhile sightseeing was the Blue Cave, Grotta Azzuri.
Even though it was really beautiful, it was really exploited by the local people for earning money from the tourists. To go there from the main port, we had to ride on boat (about EUR 20 per person) to the entrance of the cave. When we arrived in the entrance of the cave in the sea, we had to pay another small wooden boat to enter the cave about EUR 15 per person. The small boat man took us to the cave inside, let us be in the cave with other about 5 boats for less than 10 minutes, than took us out from the cave.
The cave itself was beautiful with the magic blue color of the water.
But I needed to be left quiet to admire the beauty of the nature, while when we were inside there were 5 other boats, and all the boatmen sang O Sole Mio, and asked for tips.
The other good point to experience beside the beauty of the cave was the experience to enter the cave with small entrance. We had to lay flat inside the boat since the opening of the cave was very small. The boatmen used the rope installed along the way on the cave entrance ceiling.
