The boat slips away from the pier as the city’s last light slides off peeling stucco and into the sea. On deck, the wind pushes the salt forward and the pilot gauges the horizon; you settle into a low bench with a glass of Prosecco, watching Castel dell'Ovo draw near like an old guardian carved from lava rock.
