Stazione Marittima

Top ?

Is just a sea port, where you disembark from your ship and embark, go to the city of Naples and enjoy...

It was really easy and fast to get back on the cruise shop at this Terminal. Be sure to place all your electronics and metal items in your bag before going though the metal detectors.

Port of Naples, or Porto di Napoli, is a great port building to get you introduced to Naples, Italy. There are some nice souvenir shops as well as some clothing stores. One store in particular was a favorite of mine - Real Luxury. Real Luxury is located just near the main entrance, specializes in high-end clothing and is run by a designer named Marco. He has designed, among many other items, an array of men's ties with multiple folds in the actual fabric. The most intricate of which is a "12-fold tie" that I think is just amazing. The port building is clean and easy to navigate. Once you're outside the main doors and ready to explore Naples and the surrounding areas, prepare yourself to be accosted by dozens of pushy taxi drivers. They engage you immediately to find out where you want to go and get you to hire them. Some are extremely pushy and will not take no for an answer without pushing harder. Some will even follow you for a bit while trying to get your attention and continuing to ask you questions about where you'd like to go. I had one guy follow me all the way to the sidewalk trying to get my attention and my business. Make sure you research all transportation options before your trip here. Hiring a taxi isn't always the most cost effective, or even the most scenic, option. Our plan was to spend the day visiting Sorrento on the Amalfi Coast. We took a street rail car service from the port to the main train station. That ride each way cost us each €4.50.

Beautiful port, but lack organization

Outside of the terminal are awaiting 'tour guides' and peddlers selling tours. It's a very bustling and interesting terminal. Inside of the terminal houses shops, cafes, Western Union that caters mostly the ship crews and cruise passengers.

It was where most cruise ships docked - even for the then world’s biggest cruise, the Harmony of the Seas. Similar to shops in other terminals, the stores in Stazione Maritima were not very interesting. There was no port fees they charged, making the city of Naples a very attractive port of call to visit. 企企理理，冇收旅行港口費。
