Bagni Regina Giovanna - Capo di Sorrento.
Northern boundary of the MPA in Sorrento. Here lie the ruins of an ancient Roman seaside villa known as “bagni della Regina Giovanna.” From this spot, you can take in the unique panorama of the Sorrento peninsula from the sea. - Scoglio Vervece - Scoglio del Vervece, zone A of the Punta Campanella MPA. This fully protected, inaccessible site preserves the rich marine biodiversity of the seabed. The rock serves as a sanctuary for sailors and divers, featuring a submerged Madonna at a depth of 12 meters, commemorating the historic free-diving record of Enzo Maiorca.
- Punta Campanella - Punta della Campanella, zone B of the Punta Campanella MPA. This stunning promontory separates the Gulf of Naples from the Gulf of Salerno, with a watchtower dominating the landscape on both sides. Historically, the site hosted a temple dedicated to the goddess Minerva, and a rock inscription from the third century BC is still visible on the cliff face.
- Baia di Ieranto - Stop in the Bay of Ieranto, zone B of the Punta Campanella MPA. A place of spectacular and timeless charm, boasting rich marine biodiversity with over 270 recorded species. The unique setting combines Mediterranean scrub and remnants of industrial archaeology. Swimming in this emerald sea, surrounded by lush and wild nature, is a one-of-a-kind experience.
- Marina di Crapolla - Crapolla fjord, zone B of the Punta Campanella MPA. This spectacular inlet, framed by steep rock faces, hosts a quaint seaside village with a small, charming beach at its center. The Crapolla fjord is one of the most beautiful spots along the coast, rich in history with the remains of an abbey dedicated to Saint Peter, who, according to legend, landed here during his journey to Rome.
- Area Marina Protetta Punta Campanella - Punta Sant’Elia and “Scaricatoio”: zones B and C of the Punta Campanella MPA. These sites were used or inhabited in the past. In Sant’Elia, in the municipality of Sant’Agnello, a small chapel and the remains of an access door indicate the ancient presence of fishermen. The “Scaricatoio” in the municipality of Piano di Sorrento was a landing point for loading and unloading goods.
- Spiaggia di Tordigliano - Tordigliano Beach, zone C of the Punta Campanella MPA. This is the largest beach in the protected marine area, untouched and wild. At its end lies Punta Germano, in the municipality of Vico Equense, marking the southern border of the Protected Marine Area.
- Positano - The jewel of the Amalfi coast, seen from the sea, boasts unparalleled beauty with its pyramid shape set into the rock and the colorful characteristic houses.
- Li Galli - Stop at Galli, zone B of the Punta Campanella MPA. These three islets, famous since ancient times, form a unique and enchanting small archipelago a few miles from the coast. In the past, Gallo Lungo was home to the great Russian dancers Massine and Nureyev. Swimming here, with a fantastic sea and breathtaking views, is an unforgettable experience.
- I Faraglioni - Only 3 nautical miles separate Punta Campanella from the blue island. On the return trip, we will cross the “small mouth of Capri” to enjoy a unique view of the spectacular faraglioni.
