Popular Spots
Highlights
The spots worth reaching that only get to by sea.
Landmark
Castello Aragonese
A medieval fortress rising from its own rocky islet, connected to Ischia Ponte by a stone bridge. Dating back in origin to 474 BC, the castle contains a cathedral, a convent, and a cemetery carved into the rock — one of the most striking silhouettes in the Gulf of Naples.
Swimming
Baia di Sorgeto
A sheltered cove on Ischia's southwestern coast famous for natural thermal springs that bubble up through the seabed, warming the sea year-round. Accessible only by boat or via a long staircase. Anchor off the rocks and swim ashore to the natural hot pools.
Anchorage
Sant'Angelo
A traffic-free fishing village at Ischia's southern tip, its whitewashed buildings clustered around a promontory connected to the island by a narrow strip of sand. Anchor in the bay, take the tender ashore — one of the most charming villages in the Gulf of Naples.
Dining
Il Focolare
Ischia's most celebrated restaurant, run by the Rispoli family for over 50 years. The signature dish is coniglio all'ischitana — rabbit slow-braised with tomatoes, olives, capers, and local wine — a recipe unique to this island. Reserve well ahead.
Swimming
Spiaggia dei Maronti
The longest beach on Ischia, stretching nearly two kilometres along the island's southern coast. Bordered by thermal springs that warm the sand, it is accessible by boat from Sant'Angelo with beach clubs and restaurants along the shore.
Beach Club
Negombo
A botanical garden and luxury thermal beach club set in the bay of San Montano on Ischia's north coast. Thermal pools among tropical gardens opening onto a turquoise bay — a genuinely unique setting unlike anywhere else in Italy. Arrive by sea for the best approach.
