Timeline
10:00
Start at the Underwater Park of Gaiola. The winter opening hours are daily from 10:00 to 14:00, so arriving right at 10:00 ensures you have the full morning window for diving or snorkelling before the afternoon rush.
11:30
Walk 15 minutes up to the Virgilio Club in Posillipo. This is a good time for a break; the venue offers excellent drinks and live music in a location overlooking the bay, providing a relaxing contrast to the underwater activity.
12:00
Return to the Underwater Park of Gaiola for a second session or a glass-bottomed boat trip on the 'Aquavision' if you prefer not to get wet again. The park remains open until 14:00 in winter, giving you plenty of time to finish your exploration.
12:30
Head back to the Virgilio Club for a late lunch or a final drink. The live music atmosphere makes it a perfect end to a morning of marine exploration.
Local tip
Check the official site for the Aquavision boat schedule, as options vary. In winter, the park closes at 14:00, so plan your activities to fit within this window.
