Imagine a day when the sea merges with the sky, where every moment is a painting of vivid colours and the scent of the sea breeze mingles with the warmth of the sun. This is the starting point of a group boat tour to Ischia, a unique experience that will give you unforgettable memories.
The tour starts early in the morning, when the harbour of Forio comes alive with energy and anticipation. The air is cool and crisp, and the participants' enthusiasm is palpable. The elegant and cosy boat is ready to welcome the group. The smiling and friendly crew warmly introduce themselves, immediately creating an atmosphere of friendship and camaraderie. After a quick briefing on the day's stops and safety rules, the ropes are cast off, and the boat slowly moves away from the shore, leaving the murmur of the town behind.
Sailing among the wonders of the island of Ischia
As the boat skirts the island, the panorama becomes more and more spectacular. The first stop is Citara Bay, famous for its thermal waters.
As the journey resumes, we pass by Sant'Angelo, a small fishing village with timeless charm. The captain (guide) tells stories and legends related to this place, capturing everyone's attention and making them daydream.
Continuing the journey, the boat first heads towards Maronti beach and then towards some of the most evocative caves on the island, but first it has to pass through another unmissable bay: Sgarrupata.
The tour continues to La Grotta Verde, one of the most exciting stops: upon entering, you are enveloped by a play of light and reflections that paint the water an intense emerald green. Guests are left speechless, captivated by the magic of this hidden place.
Another unmissable stop is in the Bay of Cartaromana, famous for its crystal-clear waters and the submerged remains of ancient Roman baths. Here, the boat drops anchor, and guests can dive into a sea of turquoise hues. The water is cool and rejuvenating, a natural embrace that invites you to dive in and let yourself be carried away by the beauty of the moment. As the journey resumes, you pass by the majestic Aragonese Castle, a fortress that emerges from the water with its grandeur and timeless charm.
A lunch on a boat with a sea view
At lunchtime, the crew serves a full meal on board, prepared with fresh, wholesome ingredients. The cuisine is simple but delicious, perfect for savouring the essence of the island. Sitting on the deck, with a view that sweeps over the endless blue of the sea, you feel in perfect harmony with nature.
Ischia boat tour of the island, heading back to Forio
The last stop before returning to the harbour of Forio is the Bay of Varulo. Here, guests have time for one last dip or simply to enjoy the peacefulness of the place, surrounded by unspoiled nature.
