The Italian island of Ischia lies in the Tyrrhenian Sea, at the northern end of the Gulf of Naples, roughly 30 km away. Ischia is the largest of the Phlegrean Islands and measures approximately 10 km east to west and 7 km north to south. The island's terrain is characterised by mountains which almost completely cover the island, with the highest peak is at 788 meters above sea level.
The island's thermal spas are a major attraction for the island with many tourists visiting from Europe and Asia. The hot springs and volcanic mud are caused by volcanic activity on the island. However, there is more to Ischia than the thermal spas. Worth a visit is the Castello Aragonese which was built on a rock close to the island in 474 BC and is probably the most visited attraction on the island. It is accessed via a tunnel long which there is a small chapel consecrated by Saint John Joseph of the Cross.
From the port on Ischia ferries depart to Naples, Pozzuoli and Procida.
Naples is the metropolitan capital of the Campania region on the west coast of Italy. The Naples ferry port is one of the largest seaports in Europe, with 3 passengers terminals known as the Beverello, the Calata Porta di Massa Pier and Mergellina Pier, where most hydrofoils depart from.
The port itself has a wide range of facilities including a ticket office, travel shops, ATMs, pharmacy, a shuttle bus service, luggage storage, bars and restaurants selling delicious food. The Naples airport is only 14km from the port, which takes approximately 17 minutes by car depending on traffic. The address for Naples ferry port is Molo Immacolatella Vecchia, 1, 80133.
The Italian city of Naples is the largest city in southern Italy and is certainly one of the most beautiful, especially around the Bay of Naples. The city was founded by the Greeks and was later enlarged by the Romans all of which is reflected in the city's rich history and stunning architecture. Located to one side of Naples is Mount Vesuvius, and near to the bay are the picturesque islands of Capri, Ischia and Procida, all of which are located close enough for day trips departing from Naples.
