A magnificent experience to admire Vesuvius from the sea. During the walk the guides will illustrate the geological history and the vicissitudes that have made the Gulf of Naples famous, starting with the historic crossing of the Commander of the Roman fleet Pliny the Elder, who in 79 AD. sailed from Miseno to the aid of the Vesuvian populations and, it is thought, of a famous noblewoman, Rectina. We will continue by telling about incursions from the sea, from the historical ones of Saracens and Phoenicians, to the mythological ones narrated in the Odyssey, as well as of all the populations that have lapped our coasts with their boats, admiring and dominating them, remaining enchanted or succumbing. For lunch we will stop in the stretch of sea between Vico Equense and Seiano to take a swim and have a packed breakfast. The return is scheduled for the afternoon.
