Procida

16 July, we left St Angelo to go to Procida, it was only 7 nm away, a small Island next to the mainland, we anchored on the south side at the foot of a fortress. The island is a small Island and not very toursity. We stopped off there as James needed to fly back the following day. After anchoring, we went ashore to explore the island, we hired bicycles an spent the day going round the Island. A number of films were shot on this island, Talented Mr Ripley, the Postman and Rising sun.
