Walk in Naples
The Naples Spaccanapoli to Waterfront walk is a self-guided route from the dense historic center to the open bay. Free. Start at the western end of Spaccanapoli, zigzag through Via dei Tribunali (stop for pizza), descend to Piazza del Plebiscito, walk through the Galleria Umberto I, and emerge at the waterfront at Castel dell’Ovo. Continue along the Lungomare with Vesuvius across the water. Budget travelers cover the full range of Naples in one walk: medieval chaos to seaside calm.
