Discover more about Spiaggia Mergellina

Spiaggia Mergellina is a coastal district within the Chiaia neighborhood of Naples, Italy. Historically a quaint fishing village, it has evolved into an integral part of the Naples metropolitan area. Today, it serves as both a working port for local fishermen and a secondary tourist harbor. The beach itself is narrow, characterized by coarse-grained sand and a distinctive cliff. During the summer, the cliff is a popular alternative to the sandy area. While the water quality near the shore may not be the best, a short distance out reveals a beautiful deep blue sea. Along the beach, you'll find restaurants and kiosks serving Neapolitan street food. Although the beach is free, it lacks public restrooms and showers. On the western side, towards Posillipo, lies the Port of Sannazaro, where small boats can be rented. Spiaggia Mergellina is easily accessible on foot from the city center or by public transport. The Mergellina train station is also nearby.
