Full description
An island standing on a giant? Here is one of the legends that make Ischia the ideal destination for an original full-day boat tour.
Set out to discover stories and legends and get ready to take a complete tour of this small-big island in the Gulf of Naples, world-famous for its thermal waters of volcanic origin.
Five bathing stops and plenty of delicacies to enjoy on board will be the perfect complement to this experience.
What we will do
We will meet in Forio, 30 minutes before the time indicated in the booking.
From here, we will board our boat and begin a classic tour of Ischia that will include 5 bathroom stops of about 40 minutes each. Each stop will be accompanied by light refreshments and explanations about the places visited.
We will head in the direction of Baia di Citara, a splendid beach with transparent sea that lies near the island's largest thermal park: the Poseidon Gardens. Here we will make an initial stop to admire the panorama, take a dip and enjoy a welcome drink (included) of prosecco and snacks.
Navigation will then resume towards Sant'Angelo, an ancient fishing village and the destination of the second stop. Here, too, there will be refreshments with bruschetta (included). The third stop will be at Sgarrupata, a magical place on the island with a very high coastline overhanging the sea. Between a dip and a swim, we will enjoy our lunch (included), which will consist of a fish or vegetarian starter and mussel soup.
Afterwards, we will make our way to the Castello Aragonese, an ancient fortress in the eastern part of Ischia, connected to the mainland by a long masonry bridge. The fourth stop will also feature a small refreshment with seasonal fruit (included).
The Bay of Varulo, also known as 'Spiaggia delle Monache', will be our fifth and final stop: this corner of nature that can only be reached by sea will be the perfect setting for a coffee and bitter (included) to be enjoyed before returning, which will take place after a 7-hour tour.
