The 10 Best Nature & Parks in Naples, Campania
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.

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.

Having read all the reviews we took a stroll over to the area. It’s a very nice area and the little island with the restaurants bars and the castle is well worth a visit. The Grand Hotel Santa Lucia overlooks it and is a great place to stay.

We had one spare day in Naples and since it’s so close we decided to go see Procida. We took an early ferry because Corricella looks most stunning in the morning. Upon arrival to the island we walked straight up to Terra Murata. Shortly before Santa Margherita Nuova church is the best view point. In Terra Murata itself there are two more view points towards the mainland. One is inside Abbazia San Michele Arcangelo (they expect a small donation), the other one with a slighty better view is just behind the church and public. The highlight of the trip was sitting on the terrace of a laid-back bistro in Corricella and watching the fishermen mending their nets.
8. Parco Sommerso di Gaiola - Area Marina Protetta
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 693 reviews
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.
