Overview

Capo Miseno is a spot located at the western tip of the Gulf of Naples, in the Phlegraean Fields area. This volcanic promontory offers a spectacular setting between Lake Miseno and the Tyrrhenian Sea. The spot is exposed to west and southwest winds (Ponente, Libeccio) coming from the sea. The area offers different orientations depending on which side of the cape you sail on. The volcanic setting and the view of the islands of Ischia and Procida are exceptional.
