Italy, Neapolitan Riviera

Italy, Neapolitan Riviera

The Neapolitan Riviera forms a heady mix of sun-blushed beauty, intoxicating romance and fascinating history. Once a major stop-off point on the Grand Tour of the 18th and 19th-centuries, the famous Bay of Naples is home to some of Italy's most prized jewels...the ancient Roman city of Pompeii sits in the brooding shadow of Mount Vesuvius. Further along the coast, the cliff-hugging towns of Sorrento and Amalfi beguile visitors with their stunning views out over the azure waters of the Mediterranean while the idyllic islands of Ischia and Capri bask alluringly beneath glorious sunshine.


Make sure you take time to spend a day at Pompeii - it's simply incredible. Here is a city frozen in time, stopped in mid-action and embalmed in ash when Vesuvius erupted in 79AD. Remains of bakeries and bordellos, bath houses and graffiti have been uncovered and they look just as they did 2,000 years ago.

On the coast, sheer cliffs plunge dramatically into the aquamarine sea and steep steps take you down to tiny pebble beaches or bathing platforms. The best beach on the mainland, made of dark, pebbly, volcanic sand, can be found in Maiori on the Amalfi Coast. If however you're looking for soft, golden, sandy beaches, head to the paradise isle of Ischia. Its lush, green surroundings and turquoise waters make the perfect setting for long, lazy days in the sun. .
