A Perfect Escape from Naples to the Sorrento Coast

Instead of wasting valuable vacation time, choose a smooth and stress-free experience. Naples Tour Service will organize your perfect dip in Sorrento, guiding you to one of its most fascinating hidden gems.

Discover a Hidden Gem: Queen Giovanna’s Baths

Our professional driver will pick you up directly from your hotel, port or preferred location. You will travel comfortably in an air-conditioned minivan to discover one of Sorrento’s most scenic and lesser-known spots: Queen Giovanna’s Baths.

This spectacular cliff overlooks the sea and divides into two distinct areas. On one side, a small natural lagoon forms a limestone basin surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation. The emerald-green water creates a natural swimming pool, accessible by a staircase and connected to the open sea through a natural arch.

On the other side, a path leads to open-sea cliffs, where the crystal-clear water takes on stunning shades of green and blue. Here, resisting the temptation to swim is almost impossible.

Between Nature, History and Legend

Queen Giovanna’s Baths offer more than breathtaking scenery. According to legend, this natural pool was a favorite retreat of Queen Giovanna d’Angiò, who used to bathe here in the company of her lovers.

Moreover, to reach the open-sea cliff, you will pass the ruins of a 1st-century Roman villa, once belonging to Pollio Felice. Swimming here means diving into crystal-clear water surrounded by ancient Roman remains, where history and nature blend seamlessly.

This area once served as the villa’s maritime district, complete with water tanks, storage rooms, a nymphaeum and a private Roman port.

Relax, Swim and Explore

From the wooden walkway near the cliffs, you can reach a small beach where sun loungers and umbrellas are available. Nearby, you will also find the only area on the Sorrento Coast where naturism is allowed.

To reach Queen Giovanna’s Baths, a scenic 20-minute downhill walk is required. However, the path runs through Mediterranean scrub and centuries-old olive groves, with constant sea views. The walk feels pleasant both on the way down and back up. Your driver will wait for you at the agreed time.
