Capri vs Procida — the diva versus the fisherman’s daughter

Capri costs 5x more and has 5x less charm. Fight me.

Plan your trip →

Capri

World-famous, designer shops, Blue Grotto, Faraglioni. Day trip €40–60 (ferry + cable car + lunch). Beautiful but feels like a theme park in August.

Procida

Italian Capital of Culture 2022. Pastel Marina Corricella. No cars on the main harbor. Ferry from Naples: 25 min, €15. Lunch at a harbor trattoria: €12. Stay: €60–100/night. Real fishing village that hasn’t sold its soul.

Verdict

Capri: once, for the photos and the Blue Grotto. Procida: for the real experience. Or do both in 2 days from Naples — Procida first (so Capri’s prices don’t ruin you).
