Granatello

Granatello is a harbor with an attached restaurant in Portici on the coast near Naples. The facility offers boat mooring spaces and dining options directly on the waterfront for visitors and locals.

The harbor was built in the late 1700s under engineer S. Carrabba and used natural stone blocks for protective barriers. It formed part of a broader effort to modernize Naples' coastal infrastructure at that time.

The port has long served as a gathering point for local fishermen and merchants from the surrounding area. Today its waterfront still reflects the connection between maritime labor and the rhythm of everyday community life.

The harbor and restaurant are easy to access from the street with parking nearby. Visiting in late afternoon or early evening is often pleasant as the light on the water becomes softer and more appealing.

The name Granatello comes from an 18th-century pomegranate plantation that once stretched from a villa building to a convent. This surprising botanical origin shows how the landscape shaped this place before it became a harbor.
