Naples is a popular tourist destination. However, most people overlook the beauty and uniqueness of Naples Italy promenade. So, indulge me for a minute as I explain the purpose of Naples promenade.

Seafront Promenade Naples

In a big and busy city as Naples, it may be hard to imagine that you can take a romantic stroll along the water. However, the Lungomare seafront promenade, Naples is a popular spot for tourist and locals to relax as they listen to rhythms of water slurping at rocks as the sunsets. Get carried away by the awesome view of towns surrounding Gulf of Naples as they glow and
light up the evening.

The iconic Naples centre, where most people spend their time is up against one side of the water front. Therefore, it is easy and convenient to visit Lungomare promenade. It is easier to access the promenade if you alight at the Naples cruise port. The historic seafront promenade is about two miles long and curves along Gulf of Naples from Mergellina neighbourhood to the Castel dell’ Ovo. There are sandy beaches, rental bicycles, rental boats, seaside cafes and restaurants along the promenade.

In the past years, seafront promenade has been a popular place for locals alike to relax on Sunday afternoon especially when cars were banned from using the road leading to that area. Additionally, during the 2012 America’s cup, the road was closed for a few days and since then, it was transformed to a pedestrian only road. This has made Lungomare an ideal place to spend a relaxing day in Naples.

The promenade hosts a wide range of dining, entertainment, professional services and shopping complex that are ideal both for tourists and locals. The uniquely designed market and restaurant that was started some years back caters for the need for fine dining and ravenous tasting food in Naples. It aims at feeding hungry shoppers. The quality and variety of shops in this promenade makes it stand out and worth exploiting.
