Procida is perfectly situated to explore its more famous neighbours, Capri and Ischia as well as Naples and the stunning Amalfi coast, just a short hop away. Despite its small size, Procida has a rich history and vibrant culture that attract visitors looking for a more authentic and less touristy experience.
This stunning island has been the setting for several literary works and films and was used a filming location for "Il Postino" and "The Talented Mr. Ripley". Filmmakers were no doubt drawn to its picturesque scenery, the island is known for its colourful houses, charming narrow streets, and beautiful beaches. The Marina Corricella, with its pastel-coloured buildings, draws cinematographers and visitors alike.
In 2022, Procida was named the Italian Capital of Culture, which brought increased attention to the island and highlighted its cultural and historical significance. This recognition has helped boost its profile as a travel destination, but it still retains a relatively low-key and tranquil atmosphere.
