Practical tips
Coach seats on long southern routes fill up in summer and on holiday weekends. Booking online early secures your seat and avoids paying more at the last minute. Instant confirmation means your ticket is ready on your phone.
Polignano a Mare has more than one place where people wait for transport. Read your confirmation carefully for the precise boarding point, and compare it with a map before the day of travel so you don't end up at the wrong spot.
Naples has several stations, stops and ports, and they are not interchangeable. Check where your coach actually drops you, then plan your onward link, whether a metro, a taxi or a connection to the ferries for Capri or Sorrento.
Luggage usually goes in the hold, so keep your passport, phone, charger and water in a small bag at your seat. Label your main bag clearly and watch it being loaded, especially when the coach is busy.
If you continue to Pompeii, Sorrento, the Amalfi Coast or the islands, check the connections in advance. There is no train on the Amalfi Coast, and boats and buses can fill up in high season, so book those legs early too.
The journey experience
Going from Polignano a Mare, on the Adriatic cliffs of Puglia, to Naples on the Tyrrhenian side means crossing southern Italy from coast to coast. If you want to know quickly which option fits, the comparison table on this page puts the available transport side by side, so you can check times and prices at a glance.
The option listed for this route is the bus. It is a practical choice for independent travellers: you stay on one vehicle, you don't need to change at a hub, and you can usually store your luggage under the coach. Seats are generally comfortable, with room for a day pack, and many coaches have air conditioning. Coaches are also often the most economical way to cover long distances in the south, where connections can be less frequent than in the north.
Your best move is to book online ahead of time, especially in high season and around weekends and holidays, when popular departures fill up. Check the exact boarding point and the arrival point in Naples on your confirmation, since Naples has several stops and stations and it is easy to head to the wrong one. Keep your ticket on your phone, arrive at the stop a little early, and you will have a simple, reassuring journey.

How long to visit Naples?
Plan 3 to 4 days in Naples: it's long enough to cover the historic centre, the National Archaeological Museum, Spaccanapoli and the street food scene at a relaxed pace. With 2 days, stick to the centre and the museum, plus Pompeii or Herculaneum as a half-day trip. With 4 days or more, add Vesuvius, Capri or the Amalfi Coast; book Pompeii tickets online and use the Circumvesuviana train rather than a tour.
