From the Vomero hill, along the road which connects Aniello Falcone Street to Petrarca Street, you come, thorugh a very long ramp called "The S.Antonio's thirteen descends", to one of the most astonishing views of the city: the Posillipo's hill one.
Here you can visit all the wonderful coves which sail along this area of the city: as a matter of fact, through coves, submerged parks, beach resorts, the nice district of Pausillipon offers many opportunities to catch in the summertime (and not only). Let's see which they are.
Posillipo's beaches: the Gaiola's Submerged Park
The protected marine area situated along the Posillipo's coast and is few metres away from Trentaremi's Bay, is called Gaiola's Submerged Park. This is due to the fact that it actually is a ral submerged archeological area which, in some way, takes its name from the Gaiola's two little island that represent a very heavenly scene of all the Gulf of Naples.
Its peculiarity as a protected area make it sure that in it could blend toghether the vulcanic, archeological and biological elements. For this reason, on its wonderful sea bottom (made of majestic shades of green and blue) it is possible to rediscover several archeological rests and evidences, among which those belonging to the Pausilypon Imperial Villa, which later began the Augustus'imperial residence.
Among the many activities you can do here: there is the chance to have some funny "aqua tours" on boat or to just dedicate to snorkeling, to diving, or to the kayak activity.

Posillipo's beaches: by boat to the Scoglio di Marechiaro
From Calata Ponticello in Marechiaro, the little village of Posillipo's fishermen, it is possible to reach the famous 'scoglione' (a very big free cliff just situated in Marechiaro) thanks to a transportation service made by the historical Marechiaro's barcaioli.
Thanks to its service, it is possible to reach the great 'scoglione' where you can stop and dive into its pure and crystalline waters. We recommend you to get earlier to the location, in order to get the right position just next to the sea.
