Stabia is located on the Bay of Naples in the Province of Naples in the Campania region of southern Italy. It is around 30 km to the south east of Naples and is situated adjacent to the ancient Roman city of Stabiae which was destroyed by the Vesuvio volcano eruption in 79 AD. An archaeological excavation of the Roman villas, which were preserved by the volcanic eruption, is currently taking place. There are many things to do and see in the region including taking in the wonderful architecture, the many churches and the wonderful works of art of the old town centre. All of this, and the ancient archaeological finds of Stabiae, make this a perfect place for a relaxing vacation, especially for travellers who want a pleasant mix of culture and amazing beaches.
Currently the port is used for commercial, tourist and fishing vessels. There are also shipyards and it is the third largest port in Campania after Naples and Salerno. Ferries can be taken from the port to Capri and Sorrento.
The Italian town of Amalfi is the largest town located along the Amalfi Coast which is in the Province of Solerno. The town lies on the shores of the Gulf of Solerno and at the base of Monte Cerreto. Along with many other towns along the Amalfi Coast such as Ravello and Positano, Amalfi has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The town's written history dates back to the 6th century AD and soon after became an important maritime power by trading grain from its neighbours, slaves from the interior, salt from Sardinia and timber, in exchange for gold dinars minted in Egypt and Syria. This trade was carried out in order to purchase Byzantine silks that it then sold on to the West.
The town is used to looking after its visitors with several former monasteries having being converted into hotels. The Luna Convento was converted in the beginning of the 19th century and the Cappuccini Convento was converted in the 1880's. Celebrated visitors to Amalfi included the composer Richard Wagner and the playwright Henrik Ibsen, who both completed works whilst staying in Amalfi.
