Overview

Depart from Sorrento on board a comfortable boat for a day of relaxation, discovering two beautiful islands in the Gulf of Naples: Ischia, the so-called “Green Island” for its lush vegetation, a beautiful spa resort, rich in bays and dream beaches, and Procida, recently chosen as Italian Capital of Culture 2022, which enchants visitors with its vibrant colors and its unspoiled natural beauty. You can relax under the sun, dive from the boat and snorkel in the clear waters, but also spend some free time both in Ischia and Procida, exploring the two characteristic villages by land.

What to expect

  1. You Know!
    30m
    Meet your driver at 8:15am at the Parking Achille Lauro, in Via Correale 25, Sorrento and transfer to the port of Piano di Sorrento.
  2. Parco Letterario di Nisida
    Pass by
    During the boat ride from Sorrento along the Gulf of Naples, you will see in the distance the small island of Nisida, the Phlegraean Fields, up to Capo Miseno, the extreme point of the Phlegrean peninsula.
  3. Castello Aragonese
    Pass by
    Upon arrival in Ischia, we will start the tour around the island from the Maronti beach, the longest on the island (almost 3 km); then we will stop at the Green Cave, an incredible natural cave carved into the rock, inside which the light, reflecting into the water, creates a play of colors and shades of green. Right here we will stop to swim and snorkel, before heading to the Aragonese Castle, the symbol of the island in the world:
    a majestic fortress that stands on a huge rock, connected to the East side of the island by a bridge of 220 meters.
  4. Ischia
    4h
    We will, then, stop at the port of Ischia for 3 or 4 hours of free time, in which you can explore the island on your own, maybe on board one of the iconic microtaxis (three-wheeled Apecar), a fun and unique way of touring Ischia and discover the main points of interest.
  5. Porto Di Corricella
    Pass by
    Marina di Corricella, a wonderful village famous worldwide for its multicolored houses; the bay of Chiaiozza and much more. Also in Procida, we will stop for a swim in one of the many bays along the coast.

    Terra Murata with the former prison of Palazzo d'Avalos;
  8. Procida
    1h
    In Procida, you will have 1 or 2 hours of free time to visit the island by land in total autonomy.
  9. Porto di Sorrento
    Pass by
    Finally, we will leave Procida and return to the port of Sorrento, with the final limoncello tasting.
