We will stop in its picturesque harbor, where you can enjoy a coffee, an ice cream or take a walk in perfect dolce vita style.
– Grotta dello Smeraldo: A hidden sea cave where the sunlight, reflecting in the water, colors the skin an intense green. A magical play of light and sea.
– Castello Aragonese: The symbol of Ischia, a medieval fortress on a small island of volcanic rock. We will pass under its imposing walls for a truly fairy-tale panoramic view of the castle and the gulf, an excellent moment to take a souvenir photo.

Now whether you feel like relaxing around the resort with a good book, heading to one of the nearby beaches, being pampered at the hotel spa… It’s up to you. On our free days we generally tend to split into smaller groups so that everyone can get to see and do everything as they choose.
These are free days, but we will provide you with lots of information about places to see such as ….
A great bus route that runs around the island and lots of local places to visit.
There are many places all over the island to experience the therapeutic thermal baths, such as the Negombo Thermal baths which have lovely gardens perfect for relaxing in or the Poseidon thermal park, down on Sorgeto beach we can relax in the thermal bubbles that spring up from the sea.

Also for those that would like to, why not take a boat tour to the Island of Capri for the day?

This morning lets visit the Castello Aragonese, From the outpost of the Syracuse Greek Hiero I to the conquest of Alfonso of Aragon, from the splendour of Vittoria Colonna’s wedding to the English bombing in 1809, from total abandonment to recovery through the intuition of a farsighted Ischian lawyer: twenty five centuries of history between churches, convents, prisons, lush gardens and breathtaking views, suspended between the sky and the sea in a timeless atmosphere.
