Via Caracciolo è una lunga ed ampia promenade di Napoli, che, fiancheggiando il Parco della Villa Comunale e la Riviera di Chiaia, costituisce parte del lungomare della città. Il suo nome ricorda l'ammiraglio Francesco Caracciolo, eroe della Repubblica Partenopea, impiccato nel 1799 da Nelson all'albero maestro della sua nave e gettato nelle acque del Golfo di Napoli. La grande strada è considerata una delle più belle litoranee del mondo. Dotata di ampi marciapiedi, viene chiusa al traffico e dedicata allo svago dei cittadini la domenica. Durante la passeggiata si può ammirare il Vesuvio, la penisola Sorrentino, Capri, il Castello dell’ Ovo, le varie imbarcazioni, i chioschetti che vendono i famosi taralli partenopei e bibite. Al lato opposto al mare c è la Villa Comunale e tanti baretti frequentati sia dai turisti che dai napoletani
