Procida Walking Tour
Procida, Italy
Why Walk Procida
Procida is the smallest and most authentic of the three islands in the Bay of Naples. Its waterfront of pastel-colored houses stacked above the Marina Corricella — where the film Il Postino was shot — is one of the most photographed scenes in Italy. Unlike polished Capri, Procida remains a working fishing island where nets dry on the docks and life revolves around the sea. Named Italian Capital of Culture for 2022, the island has gained recognition while maintaining its genuine character.

Walking Tip
Procida is small enough to walk in a day. Take the ferry from Naples (40 minutes) rather than the hydrofoil for better views. The island has no cars for tourists — walk or rent a small boat.
Best Time to Visit
April through June and September for warm weather without summer crowds. The Procession of the Misteri during Good Friday is one of the oldest and most evocative in Italy.
