The schooner slips out of port with the island framed low on the horizon; salt pushes at your face and the hull hums underfoot as cliffs and color begin to rotate into view. Small coves open like doors — ochre houses of Corricella rise from the waterline while gulls argue overhead and the captain points the bow toward a sheltered bay for a swim.

The schooner slips out of port with the island framed low on the horizon; salt pushes at your face and the hull hums underfoot as cliffs and color begin to rotate into view. Small coves open like doors — ochre houses of Corricella rise from the waterline while gulls argue overhead and the captain points the bow toward a sheltered bay for a swim.
Procida’s character is compact and maritime: a volcanic rim formed by the Campanian volcanic arc, compact cliffs and layered tuff give way to pebble beaches and scrub. Corricella’s narrow alleys grew from fishing life; terraces, laundry lines and painted facades still mark the rhythms of a working harbor. Nearby Vivara is a crescent islet and protected nature reserve with archaeological traces of pre-Roman habitation.
On this roughly 7-hour excursion you’ll circle key bays, anchor for swims and snorkeling (equipment provided), and step ashore in Corricella for an hour to walk the quay and grab espresso. The crew supplies water, coffee and a light snack; restrooms are onboard. Expect calm seas in summer and a livelier chop in breezier seasons — seas can affect the itinerary and the operator may cancel for safety.
Practical guidance: wear non-slip shoes, reef-safe sunscreen and a light wind layer. Bring seasickness remedies if you’re prone, a waterproof phone pocket for photos, and small cash for local purchases in Corricella. Book early in high season and aim for morning departures to avoid afternoon northerly winds.
The tour is about 6–7 hours; it includes bottled water, coffee, a light snack, use of snorkeling gear, and restroom facilities onboard.
Yes—there are scheduled stops in sheltered bays for swimming and snorkeling; equipment is provided but bring your own mask if preferred.
The excursion is classified as easy but requires boarding a small schooner and stepping onto uneven quays; infants must sit on laps and those with serious back or heart conditions are not recommended to participate.
The operator may cancel for safety; full refunds are available if canceled at least 24 hours before departure or if the tour is called off due to weather.
