Puteoli (Pozzuoli)

Once a major port rivaling Rome, explore the remnants of its glorious past, including the Flavian Amphitheater, one of Italy's largest. Discover the ancient market, the Macellum of Serapis, showcasing the area's unique bradyseism, a gradual rise and fall of the land. Wander through streets echoing with the stories of emperors and gladiators.
Lake Avernus
Cycle around the mystical Lake Avernus, shrouded in myth and legend. Ancient Romans believed this volcanic crater lake was the entrance to the underworld. Enjoy an off-road adventure amidst lush greenery, then relax on the tranquil shores, contemplating the lake's dark and fascinating past. Explore the nearby Temple of Apollo, adding another layer of historical intrigue to your visit.
Baiae Archaeological Park
Witness the submerged wonders of Baiae, an ancient Roman resort town famed for its opulence and decadence. Once a playground for emperors and aristocrats, Baiae now lies partially underwater due to volcanic activity and rising sea levels. View the ruins from above or embark on a snorkeling or diving adventure to explore the well-preserved remains of villas, thermal baths, and mosaics, offering a unique glimpse into the lavish lifestyle of ancient Romans.
Bacoli
Discover the charming coastal village of Bacoli, home to the serene Lake Fusaro. This picturesque lake, once known as Acherusia Palus in ancient times, offers a tranquil escape surrounded by natural beauty. Explore the Casina Vanvitelliana, a stunning Bourbon royal hunting lodge located on a small island in the lake, adding a touch of regal elegance to this idyllic setting.
Monte di Procida
Ascend Monte di Procida for a breathtaking panoramic view, considered by many to be one of the most stunning vistas in the region. From this vantage point, witness the entire Phlegraean Archipelago, including the islands of Procida, Ischia, and Capri, against the backdrop of the azure Tyrrhenian Sea. Capture unforgettable photos and immerse yourself in the beauty of this coastal paradise.
Solfatara Volcano
Venture onto the Solfatara volcano, a dormant volcanic crater teeming with geothermal activity. Witness bubbling mud pools, steaming fumaroles, and the pungent aroma of sulfur, a testament to the volcano's latent power. Walk on the crater floor and feel the raw energy of the earth beneath your feet, experiencing the unique and unforgettable sensation of standing within a living volcano.
