The Gulf of Naples' legendary beauty is your constant companion on this full-day adventure.
Cruise to the colorful isle of Procida by scheduled jetfoil or local ferry. Step ashore at the port of Marina Grande to explore on foot this iconic enclave. Walk through the historic center with its fragrant lemon groves, photograph the sights, and visit the local craft shops.
Then, hop into a pre-paid taxi for a drive to the medieval village of Terra Murata to admire its 16th-century castle and the Abbey of San Michele Arcangelo.
You will visit the tiny port of Corricella. This picturesque seaside village has been the backdrop to several Hollywood movies and is famed for its candy-hued homes, which local fishermen painted to be recognized from afar when they were at sea.
Your day includes a refreshing soft drink and linguae di Procida -- the must-try sweet treat on the island. Alarmingly, these are also known as lingue di bue (ox tongues) -- thankfully only because of their oblong shape. Those wanting a more substantial meal can purchase lunch at their own expense at a myriad of cafés.
Return to Naples by jetfoil or local ferry to conclude this memorable day.
