Isola di VivaraThe deserted island of Vivara is like something in a movie. Uninhabited, wild, and rising from the deep blue sea, it looks like the set for a thriller film. The crescent-shaped crater was once a volcano and is part of a chain of little islands in the Gulf of Naples. It is connected to bigger, more famous Procida by a long strip of footbridge. Vivara is a nature preserve left entirely in its natural state. It is covered with local Mediterranean climate fauna, including six rare orchid species, primrose and an abundance of ferns. It hosts migratory birds and is a nature lover's paradise to explore. The woods were once the hunting grounds of King Charles III of Napoli who used it as his personal hunting grounds for pheasant and rabbit. Cross from Procida to Vivara on the bridge and pass into a natural realm of undisturbed environmental wonders.
