Procida
Procida (Italian pronunciation: [ˈprɔːtʃida]) is one of the Flegrean Islands off the coast of Naples in southern Italy. The island is between Cape Miseno and the island of Ischia. With its tiny satellite island of Vivara, it is a comune of the Metropolitan City of Naples, in the region of Campania. The population is about ten thousand.
The island derives its name from the Latin name Prochyta. Probably, this name comes from Prima Cyme, meaning ‘near Cuma’. According to another theory, Prochyta comes from the Greek verb prokeitai, meaning ‘it lies forth’, because of the appearance of the island seen from the sea.
Procida is located between Capo Miseno and the island of Ischia. It is less than 4.1 square kilometres (1.6 sq mi). Its coastlines, very jagged, are 16 km (9.9 mi). The Terra Murata hill is the highest point on the island (91 metres (299 ft)).
