• Even in a wet winter Castellammare di Stabia gets eight hours a day of sunshine — that’s the Mediterranean climate for you, with hot dry summers and mild winters. The tourist season in the Bay of Naples and the Amalfi Coast traditionally begins at Easter, and runs through until the first week of November.
• The warmest summer months are the busiest time for visitors, but it can get really hot, so if you’re not restricted on when you can travel you might want to consider the shoulder seasons or April through mid-June, and September through mid-October. The sea remains warm in autumn, and both spring and autumn are lovely times for exploring the region on foot, or on a boat. These are also excellent times to explore the region’s ancient sights at Paestum, Pompeii and Herculaneum.
