Full description
All you need to do is come aboard to see Naples from a perspective you wouldn’t expect!
On this 2-hour boat tour, you’ll sail along the Posillipo coast to the GaiolaMarine Protected Area, a true Neapolitan gem.
A memorable experience that will allow you to explore a unique area whilst fully enjoying nature, history and crystal-clear waters!
What we will do
We’ll meet 15 minutes before the scheduled time at the meeting point in Naples. There, we’ll be joined by the skipper, who’ll welcome us aboard an electric boat – a quiet vessel designed to sail in harmony with the environment.
We’ll set sail along the Posillipo coast, leaving the city behind us as we head into an increasingly unspoilt stretch of sea. Along the way, we’ll admire panoramic views of the Gulf and the Neapolitan coast.
We’ll reach the Gaiola Marine Protected Area, a unique place where nature and history intertwine, with Roman ruins visible along the coast and a rich marine biodiversity that characterises these seabeds. Access is permitted only by boats with a low environmental impact.
On the way to Gaiola, whilst remaining outside the marine protected area, we’ll be able to stop for a swim, weather permitting, to experience the sea even more closely.
At the end of the excursion, we’ll return to the meeting point. The experience will last a total of 2 hours.
