Baia di Ieranto, Protected marine area in Massa Lubrense, Italy
The bay extends between Punta Campanella and Punta Penna, featuring limestone rocks, white pebbles, and Mediterranean vegetation along its coastline.
The Italian Environment Fund designated this area as a protected reserve in April 1997 to safeguard its natural resources and marine biodiversity.
Local farmers maintain traditional vegetable gardens, citrus groves, and olive trees along the ancient mule tracks leading to the bay.
Visitors can reach the bay through a hiking trail starting from Nerano square, following via Jeranto past Villa Rosa toward the beach.
The bay contains the Grotta delle Noglie cave, characterized by natural stalactites forming above its large entrance.
