The Amalfi Coast might be one of the best tourist destinations in the world, but that comes with inevitable issues: overcrowding and higher expense for summer getaways. That’s why Procida, an island off the coast of Naples that was\u00a0 in 2022 named Italy’s Capital of Culture, makes the perfect spot to enjoy just as wonderful an experience – without the crowds.<\/p>\n

The small island was the first of its kind to ever be granted the title, and is just under two square miles in size.<\/p>\n

Even though it features in multiple big-name films, such as The Talented Mr. Ripley and Il Postino, it has largely flown under the radar of international tourists – although the residents of Naples often flock to it during summer.<\/p>\n

It features much of the same pastel houses, cafe-lined marinas, and narrow streets as its bigger counterparts, while also playing host to historic sites, wild nature, and near-empty beaches.<\/p>\n

The waterfront is lined with the distinctive pastel-coloured houses, painted in vivid shades of pink, yellow, orange, red, and blue\u2014traditionally a way for fishermen to identify them from their boats.<\/p>\n

In terms of restaurants, the island has a huge amount to offer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

La Medusa, which has been around since 1954, is a beautiful spot to stop for lunch, while\u00a0Bar Roma offers top-notch espresso and and the bizarrely named\u00a0lingua di suocera (“mother-in-law\u2019s tongue”), Procida\u2019s traditional puff pastry filled with lemon custard.<\/p>\n
