Boat tour around the island of Ischia

Discover Ischia from a completely different perspective with a fascinating boat tour along its entire coastline. As you sail just a few meters from the shore, you’ll be able to admire some of the island’s most picturesque spots.

The tour departs from the island’s main ports (Ischia Porto, Casamicciola Terme, Lacco Ameno, and Forio) and takes you on a complete circumnavigation of Ischia along the southern coast. During the cruise, the captain will point out the main points of interest, sharing interesting facts, history, and legends that make this island one of the most fascinating destinations in the Gulf of Naples.

From the sea, you’ll be able to admire spectacular scenery such as the Bay of Citara, the picturesque Maronti Beach, the high cliffs of Punta Imperatore, the lush Bay of Sorgeto with its natural hot springs flowing directly into the sea, and numerous vistas accessible exclusively by sea.

One of the most popular stops is the approximately one-hour free stop in the picturesque village of Sant’Angelo, an ancient fishing village that has become, over the years, one of the island’s most elegant and distinctive towns. Here you’ll have time to stroll through the pedestrian alleys, visit the quaint artisan shops, enjoy an aperitif along the waterfront, or simply relax while admiring the view.

The cruise then continues to one of the most fascinating spots along the Ischia coast: the mysterious Grotta del Mago. The boat will approach the cave’s entrance, allowing you to get a close-up view of this spectacular natural cavity carved into the volcanic rock, which has always been shrouded in folk tales and legends.

The excursion lasts about 3 hours in total and is suitable for couples, families with children, and groups of friends who want to enjoy the sea around Ischia in total relaxation.

We recommend bringing a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a camera.
