Palermo to Naples Ferry

Palermo is the regional capital of Sicily; its ferry port is on the northwest coast of the island. In the Middle Ages, Palermo was one of the premier cities in Europe, but today it is still recovering from its twentieth-century ruin. With its reputation as a hotbed of both petty and organised crime, Palermo's attractions are often overlooked. There is some beautiful architecture to be found here, and the city has good museums, churches, markets, and restaurants that are well worth a visit.

Palermo's historic centre, Quattro Canti, in the form of a large octagonal square, is the main attraction in the city's old quarter. Many churches, structures, monuments, and other historical sites of interest are located in or near Palermo's Quattro Canti.

Located in southern Italy, Napoli is a magnificent city, from its bustling ancient centre to its picturesque seafront under the shadow of Vesuvius. It has become a cultural centre as a result of its long history as a gathering place for diverse peoples.

Napoli's history dates back to the 9th century B.C. when it was founded as Parthenope or Palaepolis. In 470 B.C., it was renamed Neapolis (New City). As a result, it is among the oldest cities in Europe. Its current urban fabric retains a number of notable aspects of its lengthy and dynamic past, such as its street layout, abundance of historic structures and parks, the continuation of many of its social and urban functions, its stunning location on the Bay of Naples, and the continuity of its historical stratification.
