Getting to Aquarium of Naples

Naples Metro Line 2 offers the most convenient connection.

Nearest stop: Mergellina
-From Mergellina station, the aquarium is about a 10–15 minute walk along the waterfront promenade.
-Line 2 connects directly to Napoli Centrale (Garibaldi), making it easy for visitors arriving by train.

Metro travel is generally the fastest and most reliable way to avoid traffic, particularly during weekends and peak tourist months.

Several ANM city bus routes serve the Chiaia and Lungomare Caracciolo area.

-Buses stop along Riviera di Chiaia and near Villa Comunale.
-Travel time depends on traffic, especially during late afternoon hours.
-Tickets can be purchased at newsstands, tobacco shops, or via official ANM apps.

Buses are useful if you are staying in neighborhoods not directly served by Metro Line 2.

Driving is possible but not always the most practical option.

-There is no dedicated on-site parking at the aquarium.
-Paid garages are available in the Chiaia and Mergellina areas.
-Street parking can be limited and regulated by blue-line pay zones.

Traffic along the Lungomare and Riviera di Chiaia can be heavy, particularly on weekends and summer evenings.

If you are staying in central Naples, Chiaia, or near the waterfront, walking is one of the most pleasant options.

_The Lungomare Caracciolo promenade is pedestrian-friendly and largely flat.
-The area is suitable for cycling, with designated bike paths along the seafront.

Combining your visit with a stroll through Villa Comunale makes the journey part of the experience.
