Villa Jovis
Pass by
It is located on the summit of Mount Tiberius, which is located in the eastern part of the island of Capri, and is known for having been the home of the Roman emperor Tiberius Julius Caesar Augustus. There is still much speculation about the personality of Tiberius today. Some chroniclers of the time described him as a despot with a cruel and unscrupulous personality. Idleness and vices of the court would have led him to commit excessive brutality, such as having his slaves thrown into the void of Tiberius' Leap. Other sources instead describe Tiberius as a detached, introverted person of few words. He spent entire days in profound solitude, dedicating himself to solitary walks along the viewpoint of his villa overlooking the gulfs of Naples and Salerno. However, a system of coastal towers for optical communications and fast ships allowed the emperor to quickly receive messages and issue orders.

Punta Campanella
Pass by
The promontory is located between the Sorrento coast and the Amalfi coast, dividing the Gulf of Naples from that of Salerno and extending over an area of over 1500 hectares of sea, between the municipalities of Massa Lubrense and Positano. Today on the promontory stands the Tower of Minerva, built by Robert of Anjou in 1334, and rebuilt in 1566. The tower had an alarm function in case of attacks by the Saracens and was part of a series of watchtowers built along the entire the Sorrento peninsula. A bell was rung on the tower in case of alarm and this, most likely, is the origin of the name Punta Campanella.
The "Punta Campanella" marine protected area is characterized by limestone cliffs that descend into the sea, creating rock walls that go down to 50 m or more in depth.

Marina di Massa
Pass by
It is located on a small stretch of the Sorrento Peninsula and in particular constitutes the small port of the municipality of Massa Lubrense. It takes its name from the ancient church above, dedicated to the Madonna della Lobra, protector of the place. The small port looks like a natural inlet which hosts many pleasure and fishing boats, as well as a sailing club since 1973. The place is also characterized by the buildings, still in Mediterranean style, which fully harmonize with the surrounding landscape and they recall the simplicity of life in the ancient village, but which today host numerous holidaymakers.
