Snorkeling in the Bay Submerged Park
Overview
Have you ever seen a city underwater?
Explore the wonders of the ancient Roman city of Baia, the Roman city where luxury was the standard, which today is partly submerged due to the strong volcanic activity of the Phlegraean Fields, the geological area where we find ourselves.
The phenomenon called bradyseism has slowly brought the level of the earth down over the years, so today the Roman villas that stood in front of the sea are about four meters underwater and the sea has preserved them wonderfully.
Come with us to see the ancient Roman city of Baia, you can experience the thrill of swimming on an ancient city today inhabited by so much marine life.
All the remains, being no more than four meters deep, have perfect visibility from the surface and you can easily admire them while snorkeling!

What To Expect
Once you arrive at the Diving Center you will take part in a short theoretical lesson led by our instructors, to better explain safety procedures, equipment and how to behave in the water. You will know everything you need to stay safe and enjoy every second of your experience!
We will provide you with all the equipment you need, you just need to bring your swimsuit, a towel and clean clothes to change later if you wish. Once ready we will go by boat to the Archaeological Park of Baia where we will admire ancient mosaics, statues, marble floors and all the ancient structures of the Roman city of Baia (loved by emperors and senators) and of course the marine life that populates it today! The tour will last about 45 minutes, following one of the visit routes prepared by the Park, and our guides will always be at your side to give you the best possible support and help and to make you live an unforgettable experience!
After the snorkeling activity we will return to the Diving Center, where you will have showers and changing rooms, and usually there are some refreshments.

Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Destinations snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.

Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Destinations tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use.

May 2023First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!

Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
