Full description
Did you know that, according to legend, the foundations of Naples’ oldest castle rest on a magical egg?
If you’d like to discover this and other myths of the Neapolitan coastline, come aboard:a 3-hour boat trip awaits you in the company of Valeria and Peppe.
With a spot of diving, some snorkelling and a toast on board, you’ll fall in love with Naples from a whole new perspective: the sea!
What we will do
Please arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled time at the meeting point in Naples (NA). Waiting for us will be the crew, comprising Peppe, a nationally accredited guide specialising in Neapolitan history, and marine biologist Valeria, who will accompany us on our adventure in the Gulf of Naples!
Once we’ve left the harbour, we’ll admire Castel dell’Ovo, the city’s symbol, in the distance, before continuing our journey along the Posillipo coast and past its monumental villas. Our first swimming stop, lasting around 20–30 minutes, will take us to Palazzo Donn’Anna, where we’ll go snorkelling inside a cave that once served as a Roman fishpond.
We’ll then set sail for a secret beach near Villa Lauro, where we’ll stop for about an hour to swim freely amongst the fish that inhabit the reef.
Once back on board, we’ll enjoy a toast with snacks, accompanied by white wine, cold beer or soft drinks. It’ll be the perfect moment to have a chat about the flora and fauna we’ve seen whilst diving, before setting off back.
The excursion will end with our return to the starting point. The activity will last a total of 3 hours.
