Dive through time in the Parco Sommerso di Baia: a double-dive Try-Scuba that places non-certified visitors beside submerged Roman villas, mosaics, and statues. Two guided descents, full gear provided, and a rare view of antiquity beneath the Mediterranean surface.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sea closes gently overhead as divers slip beneath the surface and the Gulf of Pozzuoli reasserts a different geography: columns poke like fossilized ribs, mosaics spread like painted streets, and statues loom from the silt. This double-dive Try-Scuba tour gives non-certified visitors two guided descents into the Parco Sommerso di Baia, where the modern coastline has swallowed an imperial leisure district.

History
Baia was a Roman imperial shore resort; volcanic uplift and subsidence in the Phlegraean Fields caused large parts of its coastal villas to sink and preserve under the sea.
Conservation
The site is fragile; guided visits and strict no-touch rules help protect mosaics and statues, and operators often limit group sizes to reduce impact.
Reserve your spot on the Double Dive Tour in Baia Submerged Park No Certification today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Equalize early and often
Start equalizing during descent and stop if you feel pain; ascents and descents are gradual but pressure changes are real.
Choose morning departures
Calmer seas and better light in the morning improve visibility and make mosaics easier to see.
Respect archaeological zones
Do not touch mosaics or artifacts—your instructor will brief buoyancy and approach distances to protect fragile ruins.
Hydrate and eat light
Boat time plus cold water exposure can be dehydrating; drink water and avoid heavy meals immediately before diving.
Swimwear
Wear under the wetsuit for comfort and hygiene.
