Praiano
PRAIANO
Dating back to ancient times, Praiano was a favored summer retreat for the Doges of the Amalfi Republic during the 10th and 11th centuries. Its name is thought to derive from the Latin “Pelagium,” meaning “open sea,” a fitting description of its stunning vistas over the Tyrrhenian Sea. Unlike its more glamorous neighbors, Praiano has maintained its authenticity and slower pace of life, making it a perfect destination for those seeking peace and authenticity.
Among its main attractions is the Church of San Gennaro, an 18th-century baroque masterpiece with a striking maiolica-tiled dome and intricate frescoes. Nearby, visitors can explore the Church of San Luca Evangelista, dedicated to Praiano’s patron saint, housing valuable artworks and relics. For nature lovers, the Path of the Gods (Sentiero degli Dei) is a must-visit trail that offers breathtaking views and connects Praiano to nearby Agerola.
Praiano is also renowned for its sunsets, particularly from Marina di Praia, a charming beach nestled between cliffs, and from the Torre a Mare, a medieval watchtower once used to defend against Saracen invasions. The small cove of Cala della Gavitella is another highlight, uniquely positioned to receive sunlight from dawn to dusk.
