Capri, September to October

Capri villas for September and early autumn

Many islanders consider September Capri's finest month, and the reasons are plain. The sea has stored the whole summer's heat, the August crowds have thinned, and the light turns golden earlier in the evening, lingering on the Faraglioni. Days are still long enough for a morning boat trip, a swim, a late lunch and a sunset aperitivo, while the nights grow cool enough to sleep with the windows open.

Villas made for outdoor living come into their own. Below are a 500 m² villa 850 m from the Piazzetta with a private pool and a terrace over the Bay of Naples, a saltwater infinity pool on the hillside of Anacapri looking to Monte Solaro, and a staircase from a pool terrace down to a cove beach at Marina Piccola.

The warmest water of the year

Sea temperatures peak in late August and early September, so swimming in the coves feels effortless well into the month.

Grapes on the terraces

The island's small terraced vineyards are harvested at the end of summer, and Capri's own white wine is worth trying with fish.

Early October, quieter still

By early October the island is calmer, some seasonal boats stop running and the evenings shorten. Bring a light jacket for dinner outdoors.

Questions before you choose

Is early October still swimming weather?

Often, yes. The sea usually stays warm into October, although autumn can bring a few windy or rainy days. Pools generally remain open until the end of the month.

Do villas still rent Saturday to Saturday in September?

Many do, as September is still high season on Capri. From late September some owners accept shorter or midweek stays; we ask on your behalf when you enquire.

How quickly will we hear back?

Within one working day. You may include up to five villas in one enquiry, and we return with availability and prices for each so you can compare them side by side.
