Boat Trip around Ischia with Lunch and Snorkeling

Join our boat trip around Ischia abord of our typical fast sailing-ship characteristic of the southern Italian tradition, the goletta, which will bring you to the best spots of this volcanic island in the Gulf of Naples. Our friendly local staff will accompany you during the tour and will share with you a lot of facts about the area, that they know like the back of their hand.

After our departure from the port of Forio, we will head to the sandy beach of Citara. Here, we will stop to swim and snorkel in the crystal-clear water and to enjoy a fresh aperitif on board. Our next destination will be the ancient fishing village of Sant'Angelo, where we will stop for about 45 minutes and our staff will serve you a delicious starter.

Afterwards, we will sail towards the beautiful caves of Ischia and we will discover the south-eastern part of the island. After passing the coast, we will sail along the bays of Scarrupata and Punta San Pancrazio and reach the Green Grotto and Grotta del Mago. This cave was named after a wise magician ("mago" in Italian) who, according to a legend, appeases fishermen and makes fishing sessions around the cave particularly profitable. Here we will serve you a delicious homemade lunch, while you enjoy the breathtaking views around you.

On our way back to Forio, we will stop at the Aragonese Castle, a majestic forstress that stands out of the sea and from where you can admire the many beauties of the island from above. Our last destination will be Spiaggia di Varulo, a hidden gem with a charming and cozy atmosphere. Here you will have some time to swim and snorkel in the emerald water. After serving you a traditional digestif, we willl head back to the port of Forio, where our boat trip will come to an end.
