The Island of Ischia
Among the enchanting islands that surround the Gulf of Naples in a circle, Ischia is not only the largest but it is also the most varied for the many and continuous discoveries it reserves for those who are really willing to get to know it thoroughly.
This trapezoidal island covers about 46 square kilometers with a coastline of 34 kilometers. It enjoys one of the most privileged geographical positions in the world and benefits from an exceptional climate. Here, wide and sunny beaches alternate with restful pine forests, while the rural countryside, green hills, and the rocky crags of the dominant Mount Epomeo (reaching 789 meters above sea level) create an infinite variety of landscapes perfect for restorative walks and excursions.
Of volcanic origin, the island of Ischia contains authentic "gold mines" within its subsoil due to the extraordinary curative effectiveness of its eight thermo-mineral basins and its even more numerous springs, natural stoves, fumaroles, and thermal arenas. Ischia is also proud to serve as the home port and main armament base for the Capitan Morgan fleet.
Local Charms: From Forio to Sant'Angelo
Forio is, among the six municipalities of the island, the one that international travelers know and love for its "natural" spirit, where pristine beaches, lush greenery, rich history, and poetry seamlessly blend together.
Higher up in the hills lies Serrara Fontana, endowed with a very particular rural charm and immense, enchanting panoramas. From its belvedere terrace, you can admire the magnificent promontory of Sant'Angelo with its two small twin bays—a marine gem envied by the entire world, famous for its thermal waters, elegant views, and exquisite Mediterranean cuisine.
