Description:

Visit the ruins of Baia and see the temples and resort villas of ancient Roman citizens such as Julius Caesar, Nero, and Hadrian. After a delicious lunch of local delicacies, embark on a glass-bottom boat trip for up-close views of the sunken part of Baia.

See Italy's own Atlantis, Baia, submerged when the coastal belt of Naples collapsed due to volcanic movements. Explore the ruins of the town—built in the Phlegraean Fields, a volcanic area—first recovered in the 1920s when sculptures, architectural elements, and water systems with imperial insignias came to light. The first underwater dig by archaeologists was only undertaken in 1980.

Along the way, stop at the Aragonese Castle, the Temple of Venus, the Archaeological Park of Baia, as well as the Solfatara volcano and the Flavian Amphitheater in Pozzuoli. After snapping photos of the ancient monuments, enjoy a mouthwatering lunch and spend the rest of the day on a glass-bottom boat to get an up-close look at the underwater ruins of Baia.
