Synopsis
Explore the Naples Riviera: a clear, engaging guide to its coast, ruins, and living streets that brighten a classic Italian journey.
This edition surveys the region from the Bay of Gaeta to Salerno, pairing natural beauty with the vivid stories that have shaped these shores.

- Picture the sweeping views from Sant’Elmo and the sunset hues over the bay and surrounding mountains.
- Relive centuries of history tied to Capri, Ischia, Procida, Amalfi, and the surrounding towns, with notes on the people and legends that linger along the coast.
