From 21 to 30 September 2026, seven days of excursions, tourist and cultural itineraries free of charge and the chance to watch the three days of regattas directly from the sea
Seven days of excursions, tourist and cultural itineraries, free of charge, aboard the motor ship Lady Adriana, discovering the eastern coast of the Gulf of Naples, and the chance to watch the three days of regattas directly from the sea.
"Le rotte del Vesuvio" begins, one of the initiatives launched by the Municipality and the Metropolitan City of Naples as part of the "Napoli verso l'America's Cup" programme, the project funded by the body based in Piazza Matteotti to support the organisation of the great international sailing competition and to build an integrated system of activities dedicated to mobility, the sea, health and the promotion of the excellence of the metropolitan area through cultural, educational and informative experiences aimed at different audiences.
The calendar
The calendar of "Le rotte del Vesuvio" includes activities that will take place on the three days of the preliminary regattas, on the four days before and on the three days after the races, starting from Monday 21 September.
**On the days without regattas (21 to 24 and 28 to 30 September) the motor ship, which is also accessible to people with disabilities, will leave from Molo Beverello and reach the coast of Torre Annunziata, making a true journey to discover the places of the Metropolitan City visible from the sea (San Giovanni a Teduccio, Portici, Herculaneum and Torre del Greco).
**
During the cruise, cultural storytelling activities, musical moments and in-depth talks on the history, myths and traditions of the sea will be offered.
At the end of the route the boat will return to the departure pier.
**
Boarding for the tours is set for 9:00 AM (the boarding gate will be identified the day before) with disembarkation at 12:00 PM.**
On race days (25, 26 and 27 September), the same motor ship Lady Adriana will become a viewpoint: from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM you will be able to follow the regattas directly from the sea.
