The southern Italian town of Naples is the perfect place to base yourself for a drive up the Amalfi coast or out to the island of Capri, while the city itself has plenty to offer.
It’s home to what many consider to be the best pizza in the world (Neapolitan) as well as some of the friendliest locals you’ll ever meet.
The city of Naples has it all, so we’ve picked 7 perfect Instagram shot for you to remember it by…
Naples Instagram Spots
1. Teatro San Carlo
The oldest opera house in Europe is open for guided tours, so you can fully enjoy the sheer magnificence of the place. If you really want a special night out on the town, dress up and go see a show there. You’ll find more info here.Â

2. Pompeii
The ancient city of Pompeii was destroyed 2000 years ago in AD 79, but perfectly preserved by the volcanic ashes as the residents fled. A poignant learning experience with great photo opportunities.
3. Capri
If you’re really lucky, you’ll have time to spend a couple of days out on this island. It is expensive though, so a day trip out from Naples is the best option for most. Climb to the top for lunch and some cracking vistas of the blue waters.

4. Gino e Toto Sorbillo
Locals could argue for weeks about where to get the best local pizza in Naples, but we’ve gone for this cracking little cute spot. The pizza is absolutely to die for and 100% the real deal.

5. Basilica Reale Pontificia San Francesco da Paola
You’ll find this huge and imposing church in Piazza del Plebiscito, the city’s main square. It looks gorgeous and is especially striking in early in the morning as the city comes to life.

6. Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte
This museum is dedicated to international arts and treasures, but the building itself is every bit as spectacular as the gems it holds inside. Plenty of beautiful spots to photograph.

7. Mt Vesuvius
You can’t come all the way to Naples and not get a picture of the only active volcano on mainland Europe. It sits 9km from Naples itself, so make the trip for a sunset shot with Naples and the volcano in the background.
