Naples Cruise

A top cruise destination included in almost every Mediterranean cruise itinerary visiting Italy, Naples is a popular cruise destination and offers cruise passengers a wonderful port and city to explore.

The port of Naples, Stazione Maritima, is centrally located with two cafes located in the terminal and is just a short walk into town. The city of Naples is easily navigated on foot and cruise passengers should take a day to explore the sights, sounds and tastes of Naples, famous for thin crust pizzas. 

A must is a trip to the ancient city of Pompeii as well as Herculaneum, which were both destroyed by Mt. Vesuvius in 79AD. The shopping is simply fantastic and with the retails hub just a short 10-minute walk from the Stazione Maritima, it’s worth scratching round some of the designer boutiques in Via dei Mille, Via Calabritto and other streets in this part of the city.

Take a trip to Sorrento, the capital of the Amalfi Coast, for the day either by shore excursion or hired driver. Some ships even call at Sorrento but this is mostly unpredictable due to the frequent windy conditions. Other interesting and elegant villages to see include Positano and Ravello.

Passengers wishing to stay in Naples for a few extra days after their cruise will have no problem finding accommodation.
