Experiences
Ischia, more than just sea...
Ischia does not only please those who want to enjoy a day at the beach or relax under the sun. Its volcanic origin gives the island thermal springs just about everywhere. So, why not take the opportunity to combine relaxation and wellness with a day at a thermal park such as the Negombo or Poseidon Gardens? Not only can you relax in the lounge areas there, but you can also dive into pools of various temperatures, shapes and locations.
Fancy visiting something different? The Aragonese Castle is the symbol of the island. Established as an outpost, it was later the setting for Vittoria Colonna's wedding and the target of the British bombardment in 1809. lt has been fully restored now.

Today, it offers enchanting views and magical spots by crossing a bridge which connects it to the Green Island. Twenty-five centuries of history among churches, convents, prisons, lush gardens and breathtaking views, hanging between sky and sea in a timeless atmosphere.
Or the archaeological museum of Villa Arbusto. A large farm turned into a museum that preserves artifacts found in the area proving that the island was a destination for all the peoples of the Mediterranean. The crowning glory: the famous "Cup of Nestor."

"Of Nestor...the cup good for drinking. But whoever drinks from this cup, immediately that one will be seized with the desire of love for Aphrodite with the beautiful crown."
Want to get away from the land?
Why not take advantage of a tour of the island by sea with organized trips scheduled almost every day. You can admire the island by skirting the coast like a sailor to discover all the hidden coves accessible only from the sea. Or you can rent a small boat, so as to enjoy a swim where the blue water skims the coast of the green island.
Want to go hiking and walking in nature on the island?
Leaving the coast and changing point of view are not always bad ideas. Mount Epomeo offers the possibility of several trails, both for experts and amateurs. To enjoy the secret views of the island, to take a walk in the green, to enjoy good wine in some of the island's wineries. You can book guides and organized tours with our colleagues from Ischia Savage
