Sail the Phlegraean Gulf on a Glass-Bottom Boat Adventure

Set sail across the beautiful Phlegraean Gulf aboard the glass-bottom Iris Iris boat and discover a spectacular blend of history, coastal scenery, and relaxation. The journey begins with a visit to the famous Sunken City of Baia, where the boat’s glass-bottom viewing area allows passengers to admire remarkable ancient Roman mosaics and submerged archaeological remains beneath the crystal-clear waters. As the cruise continues, enjoy panoramic views of the stunning Phlegraean coastline, including the volcanic slopes of Monte Nuovo and the impressive Aragonese Castle rising above the sea.

The adventure carries on toward the scenic headland of Capo Miseno, where the first swimming stop invites guests to cool off in the clear Mediterranean waters. Relax to soothing music as you float in the tranquil sea before returning on board to enjoy the first part of a delicious lunch. Surrounded by breathtaking coastal landscapes, this peaceful stop perfectly combines leisure, natural beauty, and unforgettable seaside views.

Following the swim, the cruise continues along the picturesque coastline, offering more opportunities to admire the dramatic scenery while unwinding to the gentle rhythm of the waves. A second swimming stop provides another chance to dive into the refreshing waters before savoring the remainder of a traditional lunch featuring Caprese with Phlegraean tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella, freselle topped with fresh tomatoes and tuna, mussels in pepper sauce, seasonal fresh fruit, and a refreshing soft drink.

As the boat makes its leisurely return to the Port of Baia, guests can reflect on a day filled with history, scenic beauty, and authentic local flavors. Combining underwater archaeology, coastal exploration, swimming, and regional cuisine, this unforgettable glass-bottom boat excursion offers one of the most enjoyable ways to experience the natural and cultural treasures of the Phlegraean Gulf.
