In Castellammare di Stabia, the Associazione Parco delle Acque di Stabia has raised concerns regarding a €12 million renovation project for ancient thermal baths. The association opposes the construction of a parking lot within the facility due to hydrogeological risks, warning that motor vehicle emissions and hydrocarbons could contaminate the mineral water table. They have suggested utilizing public transport and nearby areas as alternatives.

Separately, in San Ferdinando, Calabria, regional and local authorities announced that the sea has reached full bathability status, a development intended to boost tourism and coastal resource management.
