2Procida, Italy – The pastel island paradise

Most visitors heading to Naples catch ferries to Capri or Ischia, overlooking tiny Procida. That’s exactly what makes it so special. 

With its pastel houses stacked around a fishing harbor, narrow streets draped with laundry, and a distinctly local rhythm, Procida feels authentic and intimate. Instead of luxury boutiques, you’ll find family-run cafés and fishermen mending nets beside colorful boats.

Reasons to go:

  • stunning, photogenic harbor views

  • relaxed island life

  • quiet beaches with clear water

  • vibrant but non-touristy neighborhood feel

Procida offers the island dream without the crowds or high prices.
