Praiano offers stunning, hidden beaches and grottoes, breathtaking hiking trails, and medieval guard towers dotting the headland. The town may be small, but it’s a top choice for many travelers looking to experience the charms and rugged beauty of the Amalfi Coast – minus the touristy crowds of the area's more developed towns.

While Praiano draws in summer travelers with its pristine beaches, the commune has many seaside and cliffside restaurants that serve excellent, all-sensory dining experiences year-round. Praiano makes for an excellent base to those who want to escape even further and discover more of the Amalfi Coast. You can set out on a chartered yacht or take an island-hopping trip to nearby Capri.
