Ischia, Capri and Procida:
the Gems of the Gulf of Naples

Your arrival in Ischia will be the ideal starting point for a surprising experience of discovery in the scenery of the Gulf of Naples.

For many it is “the Wellness Island” with its mix of thermal parks of volcanic origin, lush forests and lots of sea; but the charm is not limited only to a place for a relaxing visit.

Have fun meeting the locals and discovering the delicious food and wine tradition of the island, while you take a leisurely stroll , channelling the quiet rhythms of the past, between characteristic villages and harbours such as Ischia Porto, Ischia Ponte, Casamicciola Terme, Forio d’Ischia and Lacco Ameno.

After a short trip you will visit the most glamorous of the islands of the Gulf of Naples; a concentration of unique scenic beauties, elegant restaurants, trendy clubs, luxury hotels and boutiques of famous designers, which with its whitewashed houses and characteristic pedestrian streets, resembles more a movie set than a real place.

To complete your Capri experience, you will have the option of visiting the wonderful flowered terraces of the Gardens of Augustus and enjoy the splendid view of the Faraglioni rock formation, Marina Piccola and the bends of Via Krupp; or if you prefer you can take a suggestive boat trip to go lie inside the famous Blue Grotto or admire the Faraglioni from the sea.

Finally, to experience a truly exclusive multisensory experience, you have the option of enjoying a refined gourmet dinner in a beautiful restaurant overlooking the sea, a few steps from the Blue Grotto.

Once you get to Procida, the smallest of the “Gems of the Gulf of Naples”, you will board a characteristic Ape car to continue your discovery experience.

Enjoy yourself on this fun three-wheeled vehicle on a tour of the Italian Capital of Culture 2022: from Marina Grande, to the ancient village of Terra Murata; from the colourful Marina Corricella where you will feel like you are in a painting, to the lively Marina Chiaiolella.

You will be captivated by the evocative island architecture in villages that seem to stand still in time, you will taste delicious local products, you will see the places used as a set for “Il Postino” by Massimo Troisi and you will take beautiful photographs from the most stunning and panoramic points.

Before leaving Procida you cannot miss stopping off in a typical restaurant to taste the local cuisine; a tasty harmony of sea and land.

You have a free day to recharge your batteries, focus on relaxation and the activities you prefer.

For a very suggestive experience you could choose to wear comfortable shoes and set off to discover the primordial face of the island: Mount Epomeo.

On foot or on horseback, you can reach the summit of the mountain that dominates Ischia through paths and lush forests, while admiring some of the most beautiful views of the island, including the viewpoint from Serrara Fontana.

Then it will be time to recharge your batteries, from Serrara Fontana you can decide to taste one of the typical dishes of local gastronomy as well as Slow Food Presidium: Ischitana rabbit.

Alternatively, you could opt for a relaxing walk among climbing roses, passion flowers, daffodils, magnolias and Ginkgo Biloba trees, Palms, Yucca and Agavi, up to the most precious plant of all the Amazonian Victoria, inside La Mortella Gardens; a corner of paradise on the promontory of Zaro in Forio d ‘Ischia.
