About Isola d'Ischia
Ischia is a volcanic island in the Bay of Naples, known for its thermal springs and gardens, fishing villages and the castle on its islet.
Ischia is the largest island in the Bay of Naples, a green volcanic cone whose peak, Monte Epomeo, rises to nearly 800 metres. Hot springs bubble up across the island, feeding thermal parks and spa hotels, and the main towns are Ischia Porto, Ischia Ponte, Forio and Lacco Ameno. The Aragonese Castle, set on a rocky islet joined to the shore by a causeway, stands on the site of ancient fortifications and was rebuilt in the fifteenth century.
