Praiano

  • L'Africana

    Jackie O once joined the revels at this 60s-era disco in nearby Marina di Praia.

  • Marina di Furore

    Climb the 3,000 steps from the enchanting harbor to the town above.

  • The Piazza

    Inlaid with majolica tiles, it seems to levitate above the sea.

Praiano

From afar, Praiano looks as alluring as a landscape painting. Up close, it turns out to be just your standard-issue village-along-a-road. Praiano has less wealth and sophistication than its neighbors and more olive and lemon trees than tourists.
