Along with Pozzuoli, Monte di Procida and Quarto, Bacoli is one of the main municipalities in the volcanic area of the Phlegraean Fields rising to the west of Naples. The entire Phlegrean area is characterized by the alignment of 7 volcanoes distributed along a single axis that includes Cape Miseno, the port of Miseno, the center of Bacoli, the Gulf of Baia, and Punta Epitaffio.

The city of Bacoli was founded by the Romans under the name of Trunks and soon became an important resort of ancient Rome. In Augustan times it was the most important military outpost and political and cultural center along with the nearby Bay. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the town suffered a sharp decline, mainly due to geological phenomena related to bradyseism.

Of ancient Bacoli, many monuments and archaeological sites have survived to the present day, including the Piscina Mirabilis, the Underwater Park of Baia, and much more.
