Procida is the smallest of the islands of the Phlegraean Fields, a vast volcanic area located in the Gulf of Naples. It is a picturesque island with brightly colored houses, easily recognized by fisherman on their way back after a long day of fishing. An island of secluded beauty with its many alleys up and down, often one-way, not surprisingly also chosen as the setting for some Italian books and films.
From Naples you will take a ferry boat to reach the magical island of Procida. Arrival at the chaotic and lively port will immediately throw you into another dimension. You will be able to walk freely to discover the island.
Accompanied by a local guide you will discover the fascinating Palazzo D’Avalos, a former prison at the foot of the walled town. A place rich in history and with wonderful spots overlooking the sea.
Then with your guide, walking through the characteristic streets of the old town, you will discover the traditions, culture and unique architecture of the island of Procida. You will then end in the very colorful port of Marina di Corricella, taste some typical local products and take some pictures.
Free day, you can relax and stroll by the sea at Marina di Chiaolella or in one of the many other beaches on the island and enjoy the magical “panorama” while drinking an aperitif at sunset.
Upon request it will be possible to dine in a special place among the lemon trees.
Today you will enjoy the island from another perspective: by the sea, on a boat. You will stop in the main bays of the island to dive into the bluest sea and in the company of other visitors you will eat lunch on board prepared by the skipper.
On the ferry boat back to Naples you will say goodbye to the island of Procida with a little nostalgia.
