Begin your adventure to Procida Island with a 40-minute hydrofoil ride from Naples’ Molo Beverello. The crossing reveals sparkling waters and the colorful skyline of Marina Grande, Procida’s lively port. From here, step onto a traditional gozzo boat for an exclusive one-hour Procida Boat Tour led by a local skipper. As you sail, enjoy stories about volcanic origins, maritime traditions, and legends that shape the island’s identity. The setting blends natural charm with authentic culture, creating a true taste of the Bay of Naples.
The Procida Boat Tour reveals rugged cliffs of golden tufa rock, caves carved by the sea, and hidden spots ideal for snorkeling. Admire striking contrasts: clear waters, dramatic geology, and lush Mediterranean vegetation. On clear days, Ischia appears on the horizon, adding to the panorama. Sail past beaches that define Procida Island: Postino Beach, immortalized by cinema; Ciraccio Beach, with twin sea stacks; and lively Chiaiolella Bay, home to a charming marina. Nearby lies Vivara, a green reserve connected by a footbridge and treasured for its rare flora and fauna.
Continue along the southern shore to see Chiaia Beach, tucked beneath cliffs and reachable only by sea or a steep staircase. The cruise then brings you to Marina di Corricella, the island’s oldest fishing village. Pastel houses cascade down the hillside, forming one of the Mediterranean’s most picturesque views. As you circle back, gaze up at Terra Murata, Procida’s medieval core, crowned by the Abbey of San Michele Arcangelo. The tour concludes at Marina Grande, where you board the hydrofoil to Naples. Memories of your Procida Boat Tour will stay with you—colorful villages, wild landscapes, and timeless seascapes. For those who wish, an extended two-hour version includes swim and snorkel stops, depending on sea conditions.
