Naples Weather February Averages, Italy

What's the weather like in Naples in February

The month of love is certainly a wonderful time to visit Naples, and with romantic architecture and a very sophisticated vibe in the air, a break during Cupid's peak time could be the ideal weekend away.

Temperature

Despite the fact that winter is still in the air, you can expect an average monthly temperature of 9°C during February, which easily reaches an average high of 13°C during the warmer days.

Sunshine Hours

The sun comes out for around 4 hours per day; this may not sound a lot, but when the sun shines, it certainly has its hat on!

Naples experiences an average low temperature of around 5°C during the evenings, so wrapping up warm is advisable if you're heading off to explore Naples in the evening, which is certainly something you should be doing.

Rainfall

The downside however is that rain is slightly increased in comparison to the last couple of months, with an average 100mm of precipitation throughout the month, which affects on average around 9 days.

Sea Temperature

If you feel the need to head the beach, perhaps swimming is not the best idea just yet, as the average sea temperature during February is a chilly 14°C, meaning land-based activities are best at this time of year.

Naples Hotels for February

Hotel Tiempo

Whether you're visiting Naples to coincide with Cupid's special day, or you simply happen to be visiting during this month, there are plenty of options when it comes to a comfortable place to rest your head of an evening. Hotel Tiempo offers a very comfortable base in Naples, on a B&B board basis, with a private garden and terrace with stunning city views. This is close to the Gianturco Metro Station too, making getting around easy.

Una Napoli Hotel

Alternatively, Una Napoli Hotel is home to a stunning rooftop terrace and restaurant with more culinary choices then you can work your way through.

Bars and Restaurants

La Masardona

Naples is of course the homeland of pizza, so it makes sense that there are countless pizzerias around the city. Some are better than others of course, however La Masardona offers pizza with a difference, specifically fried pizza! Cheap, so easy on the pocket, and seriously flavoursome, you must give this hidden gem a try.

Pizzeria Napoli in Bocca

Alternatively, Pizzeria Napoli in Bocca is another fantastic choice. This family run restaurant, located on Via San Carlo is cheap and great for food on the go.

Dolce Idea di Gennaro Bottone

If your sweet tooth is running riot, then Dolce Idea di Gennaro Bottone should be your stop-off point. This unique shop/restaurant offers handcrafted sweets and deserts, some of which you can take away for loved ones back home.

Things to do in Naples in February

The beauty of Naples is evident all year around, however during February, the traditional month of love with a capital L, you can appreciate the romantic architecture and vibe around the city much more.

Via San Gregorio Armeno

If you are visiting with a loved one, or simply on your own, then don't miss Via San Gregorio Armeno. This is a narrow street in the old historic part of Naples, which is decorated with beautiful architecture, and colourful Nativity scenes on both sides. Along this street you will also find small boutique stores and quaint gift shops, which offer the perfect opportunity to pick up a souvenir for those back home, or perhaps a gift for your significant other.

Via Caracciolo e Lungomare di Napoli

Of course, we can't forget that Naples isn't only a city of wonderful history and architecture, but also a city steeped in nature and beautiful natural sights. Head to Via Caracciolo e Lungomare di Napoli for one of the most beautiful views you will ever set your eyes on, right over the water and up to Mount Vesuvius in the distance, over Capo Posillipo. The light changes as the day passes, giving the view a different take. Very romantic, very beautiful, and certainly one for the camera.

Gesu Nuovo Church

For beauty in a more man-made way, it has to be Gesu Nuovo Church. Naples is full of beautiful buildings, we can't deny this fact, but this particular church has some of the most stunningly beautifully decorated ceilings you will ever see. You will no doubt spend most of your time walking around looking upwards, however don't miss the highly recommended Guiseppe Moscatti room of the building.

Heading off to explore Naples and the surrounding area is made easy by a simple public transport network, so you have no excuse not to get out and about.
