Guide to Praiano

Virtual tour of Praiano

Praiano is a small town located on the Amalfi Coast. With its ancient history, it has become a quiet and peaceful resort with a population of just around 2,000 people. The surroundings of Praiano offer a combination of cliffs and sea landscapes. This alone would make Praiano a wonderful place to visit, but the magnificent scenery is just the beginning of what this little gem has to offer.

The main secrets of Praiano lie beneath the water. The famous Emerald Grotto is located near the town, attracting visitors from all along the Amalfi Coast. And nestled among the cliffs is a small local beach that is protected and convenient for relaxation.

Unfortunately, the art of silk production, which was the livelihood of the residents of Praiano from the 10th to the 19th century, did not survive to the present day. However, the skill of the people of Praiano in preparing seafood has only evolved and improved over time, offering new culinary delights.

Praiano is home to several ancient churches and a defensive tower that once protected the city from sea attacks. All these remnants of the past tell the story of a time when there were many more events and activities taking place here.
