Full description
Ischia, also known as the green island, hides endless natural wonders that will make you fall in love. Explore its shores on a daily boat tour to discover the island's most exclusive bays.
Arriving from the sea, you will get a unique perspective of the incredible rocky coastline and see the island's main attractions, such as the 'Foot of Typhoeus', up close. Enjoy a dip in the bluest and clearest waters, among unforgettable caves and coves.
To honour the local culinary tradition, there will be delicious delicacies on board for you to enjoy in good company. We are waiting for you!
What we will do
The meeting is at 9.30 a.m. in Forio (NA). After meeting the skipper and settling on board, we will set sail around 10.00 am.
The first stop will be near Citara, a tongue of golden sand stretching out near a stretch of sea with clear blue waters. Here stand the famous 'Poseidon Gardens', the largest and most renowned thermal park on the entire island. Surrounded by this incredible scenery, we will have time to enjoy delicious snacks and bubbles and dive into the sea for a refreshing swim.
After about half an hour, the captain will weigh anchor and we will sail back to the 'Scarrupata'. The name might make one think of something dilapidated... nothing could be more wrong: we will be facing one of the most extraordinary places on the island.
We will continue towards Punta Imperatore, between Forio and Sant'Angelo. During navigation we will be able to admire the rocky coastline, characterised by a strange morphology known as 'Piede di Tifeo'.
We will continue our tour accompanied by the local gastronomy, and together we will enjoy a seafood appetiser followed by a first and second course near the "Grotta dell'amore", one of the most famous inlets on the island. On the boat we will try to create a convivial atmosphere with chats, music and a nice glass of local limoncello with a delicious sfogliatella.
As we savour the local delicacies, we will come across one of Lacco Ameno's many attractions, the 'Fungo'. This is a tufa rock, which detached in ancient times from Mount Epomeo and rolled into the sea, and was eroded by wind and water until it took on this characteristic shape.
After about 7 hours of hiking, we will return to the starting point around 5 pm.
