Where to stay on the Amalfi Coast? Praiano!

It is true, in Praiano the Amalfi Coast preserves its simple origin, out of the throng of chaotic and disordered tourism, more intimately connected with the rhythm of life of the local people - fishermen, families, children playing in the church squares, strolling on its terraces carved into the rock, where the vegetation of the Mediterranean scrub grows free, following its own nature, interspersed with small gardens and home gardens.

We can say that Praiano is the place of time, it is the place for time. Slowly the passage of the sun flows. Since dawn it peeps out over the sea behind the cliffs that hide Amalfi, the pearl of the history of our territory, until it plunges in the evening behind the Faraglioni of the island of Capri, as far as the view sweeps.

Sea and Mountain

The perfect compromise for those who love both the sea and the mountains, in fact from Praiano it is possible to reach the Path of Gods , the nature trail most representative and evocative that connects Bomerano, a hamlet of Agerola - a small village at high altitude, on the hills of the Amalfi Coast - to Nocelle, a hamlet of Positano on the slopes of Mount Pertuso. 

A spontaneous calm and intimacy

Despite being one of the most beautiful towns on the Amalfi Coast, unlike the others, it has retained its charm thanks to its unspoiled nature. A popular destination for those who want to rediscover a refined taste with grace and modesty, not shouted at.

A chat with the locals

If you wander around the town you can still meet fishermen and farmers who go about their daily lives while maintaining the authentic and traditional lifestyle that they are happy to transfert to anyone passing by, perhaps chatting in the square in the evening or at the bar sipping a local wine.

Experience the Amalfi Sea from the sea

From Marina di Praia boats leave for daily cruises to Capri as well as for many tours and excursions with stops in the most iconic places on the coast. < / p>

It is also possible to get organized excursions to discover the wildest places on the coast by sea kayaks for those who want to give a sporty and adventurous touch to their holiday .

Finally, it is even possible to rent a private boat independently, by going to Marina di Praia where the offices of the main nautical charter companies are located. Different types of boats are available. For motor boats up to 40 horsepower, rental without a skipper is allowed. Don't miss a boat ride with skipper at sunset to enjoy the unforgettable experience of an aperitif in the sea.

One step away from the Fjord

Joined the Club of the most beautiful villages in Italy, it is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Terra Furoris, or Land of Furore, is the ancient name of this town that originates from the fury of the sea waters inside the Fjord.

And for the more daring, an angel's flight suspended in the air allows you to cross the Fiordo di Furore from above through a modern Zip-line that descends towards the sea, just thanks to the force of gravity, between overhanging rocks and an exciting panorama, securely hooked to a special harness and a steel cable.

Good Living and Good Eating

How to live well without eating well? And this is a guarantee in Praiano which over time has distinguished itself precisely for an excellent cuisine that prefers local products, sustainability of local agricultural and wine production, contemporary visions, but always preserving the authenticity of tradition and the quality of the raw materials.

And where you live well, eat well and spend the right amount.
