Romantic Naples, two hours south of Rome, is the largest city in southern Italy. It has some of the world's best opera and theater houses and is often called an open-air museum, due to its many historic statues and monuments. Join families on promenade as the sun sets on the Bay of Naples. View finds from Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D., at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale or revel in the art and architecture of Museo Cappella Sansevero, built in the late 1500s.

Pausilypon was the Villa d’otium build by roman knight Publio Vedio Pollio. When Pollio died (15 b.C.) it was given in legacy to the emperor Augustus, becoming an official imperial estate. It is located in one of the most fascinating places in Naples with a fantastic view over the Bay of Naples.The gateway to the villa was given by the monumental Seiano’s cave (a tunnel 770 meters long caved in the hillside of Posillipo).
A magical place so close but so far away from the buzz and noise of Napoli. Very well preserved archeological site with breathtaking views. I generally don’t like guided tours but Alessia is a really excellent guide, very knowledgeable, technically proficient but also engaging and never boring. Slightly “off the beaten track” but strongly suggested to experience something different in Napoli.

This park is located in the upper class neighbourhood of Posillipo, a number of people in the park or enjoying the views mid-morning. The park needs some tender care, prune the scrappy shrubs and trees, trim the grass areas and rid the area of the rubbish that was evident in places. Perched on the upper deck of the bus we soon concentrated on the spectacular views, particularly the coast and offshore. The audio mentioned Capri and other islands, the bay of Pozzuoli and gave a good narration of other sights. If you wish to visit, its Stop 7 on the Blue Route.

The Gaiola Underwater Park is a Marine Protected Area established in 2002 along the Posillipo coast, in the northwestern Gulf of Naples. The Park owes its singularity to the fusion of volcanological, biological and archaeological aspects inserted in one of the most attractive coastal landscape in the Gulf. Many ancient roman remains (I Century b.C.) lie underwater because of a geological phenomenon (bradyseism). It’s possible to visit it by glass-bottom boat, snorkeling and diving tours.
Lovely place for a day out. If you go out of high season you will find a spot on the small beach. You can swim safely from the beach, and if you take a snorkel go around and explore the ancient Roman ruins. It's also a marine reserve. You have a half-hour walk down a road to get there, but it's well worth it. Buses go from Naples.
