Broken clouds. Cool.

Naples (Napoli if you live here) is raucous, polluted, anarchic, deafening, crumbling and grubby. It's also a lot of fun. Superbly positioned on a bay, Naples has a little - and often a lot - of everything. It pulsates with noisy street markets and their colorful characters.
Situated on the shin of Italy, Naples has a fair expanse of Mediterranean in front of it, bringing those hot dry summers and cool sea breezes straight to Naples' door.
Naples Tours & Activities
Tour of Capri
From the Port of Capri drive to Anacapri by minibus for free time to explore Villa San Michele, located on the north-eastern side of Anacapri. Travel to the top of Monte Solare by chair lift then return to Capri for lunch. In the early afternoon walk to Augustus' gardens and see the Blue Grotto (not included in tour cost) before returning to Naples.
Making a carnival out of religion
Naples' main festivals honour San Gennaro. On the first Sunday in May, on September 19 and on December 16 each year, thousands gather in the Duomo for the Festa di San Gennaro to pray that the saint's blood, held in two phials, will liquefy: a miracle said to save the city from potential disasters.
The Fiesta di Piedigrotta, dedicated to the Madonna, occurs September 5-12, and at Christmas, thousands of elaborate nativity scenes are erected around the city.
