Baia di Ieranto, one of the most amazing and beautiful bay I discovered last time I was in Italy, was a place I wanted to take my sister and her boyfriend to.
Next morning, after our arrival, Dorina had prepared the most delicious breakfast for us. Fresh pressed orange juice with oranges from the area,
her homemade yoghurt, bread, homemade marmelades, tea, Italian espresso coffee….could one ask for more? We were in heaven!
Since it was a holiday and there were no buses going to Nerano (closest point to hike to Baia di Ieranto), sweetest Dorina offered us a ride to Termini. From Termini we had this breathtaking view over the island Capri
The path leading us to Nerano from Termini
Steep cliffs covered with bright green trees
Colorful flowers alongside the path
Clearblue sky, steep chalky white limestone cliffs covered with green oaks and pines…
Watching these beatiful surroundings made the walk in the heat much easier…
View to over the village Nerano and Marina del Cantone
The path leading to paradise…
Passed by this olive grove on our way to Baia di Ieranto

The island Capri hiding behind the mountain
Picnic area
where farmers were selling fresh fruits and vegetables
such as giant lemons
and fennel
oranges – that we bought and enjoyed when we arrived to the bay

09 June 2014 at 17:00Are those lemons or are they cedra? We had cedra in Sicily – take a thin layer of skin off (can be candied) and cut the rest including what you think is thick pith into slices (remove any seeds), season with olive oil, a little balsamic, salt and pepper and chill for a summer salad – delicious!!!

10 June 2014 at 2:39It was our tour guide – a Sicilian – that fixed it for us when two tour members brought it back from the market. I wish I could get them here in the Seattle area – think I saw them once a long time ago. Nothing like fixing a recipe at home from a trip to bring back memories. I make socca now regularly – a must when we open a bottle of rose wine.
