Sorrento's working fishing harbour is a better bet for sea glass than the resort beaches, with very dark olive glass and wired window glass.
Capri's small south-coast harbour beach looks out to the Faraglioni rocks. The glass collects in the stones and nooks under the bathing-establishment decks rather than on the open shingle. In summer it is crowded, so spring or autumn is better.
Small to medium pieces; one collector filled two handfuls in one stop.
