Capraia e Limite is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Florence, located in the Tuscany region of Italy. Situated about 20 kilometres (12 mi) west of Florence, the municipality comprises two main localities: Capraia Fiorentina and Limite sull'Arno, with the latter being the municipal seat.
