About Pozzuoli
Pozzuoli sits on a restless volcanic bay where Roman engineering, Greek legend and modern harbour life overlap in a way few Italian towns can match. For a first visit, the water is the main event: the submerged city of Baia lies just offshore, and you can meet it on a Baia Snorkeling Experience Among Sunken Roman Ruins or, if you would rather stay dry, on a Baia: Semi-Submarine Tour of the Underwater City. Above the surface, the Phlegraean Fields give the town its sulphur-tinged, slightly otherworldly atmosphere.

Frequently asked questions
Pozzuoli's headline attraction is underwater. The Roman resort of Baia sank beneath the bay, so first-timers can snorkel, scuba dive or ride a semi-submarine over real villas, mosaics and statues rather than looking at ruins behind a rope. Add the volcanic Phlegraean Fields and you get archaeology and geology in the same afternoon.
