Tips from the Community
The view of Vesuvius from Castellammare di Stabia offers one of the most iconic and evocative panoramas in the entire Gulf of Naples. From this perspective, the silhouette of the volcano stands imposingly in front of the coast, magnificently closing the curve of the gulf.

Vesuvius is an active stratovolcano located in Campania, overlooking the Gulf of Naples. It is considered one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world due to the high population density in the surrounding areas and its predominantly explosive nature

Today, with temperatures reaching 29°C, we had a day of sightseeing. We visited, among others, the Sibyl's Cave in Cumae and the Aragonese Castle in Baia, which houses the Archaeological Museum of the Phlegraean Fields. Most of the artifacts come from the waters of the Phlegraean Fields and the submerged cities discovered on the seabed between Pozzuoli and Baia. The Sibyl's Cave is beautifully situated and the view is fantastic, enhanced by light and sound effects. Finally, we saw the ancient Roman amphitheater in Pozzuoli, which is still in quite good condition. Unfortunately, the crater of the Phlegraean Fields was closed to visitors today due to seismic activity in recent days. Our hosts, however, tried to assure us that the new hotel building would surely survive, and in the worst case, we should just live on the street. We will see how the situation develops and hope for the best.
