Visit · 20 min · Included · The mosaic of Neptune on four sea horses, seen from a terrace

At the start of the decumanus, on the right as you enter, are the Baths of Neptune. From a high terrace you see the great mosaic on the floor: Neptune driving four sea horses among tritons, dolphins and monsters. It is one of the largest mosaics in Ostia and the first stop for almost everyone. In winter it may be covered.
