Praiano is the quiet gem between Positano and Amalfi — a fishing village that kept its soul intact without being swallowed by mass tourism. The name comes from Greek 'Pelagianum' (open sea). Its fishermen were once famous as coral divers who wore a Saracen-style earring in the left lobe. During the Amalfi Republic, it served as the Doges' summer residence. Split into upper Vettica and lower Marina, it offers the most romantic sunsets on the coast — the view stretches all the way to Capri.
Sunset over Capri is visible almost every evening. La Gavitella beach catches the last light. Quiet alternative to Positano next door.
