As my sister and I was walking up to Villa Jovis we came across an old man at a gate telling us to come in and see the views. It was well worth it there were so many different viewpoints and some steps to amazing views. The old man had asked us to leave a tip in a tray if we could which was fine because he was so friendly and had bottles of water for anyone who needed them. I would definitely recommend dropping in on the way to Villa Jovis and leaving a small tip for the man as he is a volunteer in his 80's who supplies bottles of water.

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.

Forget about the crowded and overpriced beaches, leave the droves of tourists behind and take the time to hike up the Valle delle Ferriere. Especially in the summer it is also a very nice way to escape the heat, since most of the hike is under the trees. However getting to the later shady part ist quite difficult in the afternoon cause the beginning of the path is many many steps under the sun. Overall 45 to 60 min one way it is an easy hike / walk for some others, we met old ladies in flip flops who took a shower under the waterfalls but I recommend closed shoes and also long trousers cause the path is overgrown in some places. Starting from Amalfi and after you walk up the main road to the museum of the papermills follow the signs to the right, climb up many steps and after you pass in front of a tavern you start to get into the forest and follow the stream upstream. There are many small waterfalls formed and one or two big ones, you can find one or two small lagoons to bathe, if you can handle the icy water. The best thing in my opinion was the many ruined buildings on the way there, old paper and iron mills that used to be the backbone of the local industry. Poor donkeys that had to carry stuff up this path! The ruins are almost surreal, huge empty skeletons of stone buildings, some staircases and arches still standing, also ovens and other industrial components. Very eery in some places. I loved it, wouldn't like to be there alone in the evening though... From the far end you can climb higher and meet the main path that used to be the main connection to the other villages, still walkable. We didn't go so far as to reach the enclosed section that you have to pay to get access, there is the longest waterfall I presume from what was described to me, I think it is closer when coming down from Pontone. I recommend taking this hike and escaping the saturated coast for a couple of hours.
