Security Considerations in Capri
Capri receives large numbers of day visitors arriving by ferry from Naples and Sorrento, alongside high-value clients staying in hotels or on yachts. Boutiques must handle both at the same time, often in very small premises. Officers must manage entrances and fitting rooms discreetly and speak Italian and English; other languages are useful during the summer peak.
Every officer, delivery and shift change arrives by sea, so weather conditions and ferry schedules determine scheduling. In season, staff housing on the island is scarce and expensive. A security program requires advance planning of housing and transport, clear procedures for stores that close late in the evening and supervisors able to reach the island quickly when needed.
How Coverage Works in Capri
McCray designs the program and writes the Post Orders that officers follow.
In Italy, private security firms (istituti di vigilanza privata) operate under a license issued by the competent Prefecture (Prefettura) under the Testo Unico delle Leggi di Pubblica Sicurezza (Consolidated Law on Public Security, TULPS), and sworn private guards (guardie particolari giurate) must be approved by the Prefect.
