ISLAND OF ISCHIA
Located in the Gulf of Naples in the Tyrrhenian Sea, Ischia has been known since at least ancient Roman times for its pleasant mild climate and its therapeutic, thermal water hot springs.
Today Ischia is divided up into six municipalities, and the entire island is accessible to visitors by car, bus, or scooter. Ischia's 34-kilometer coastline consists of every type of setting from small bays to volcanic lava cliffs to huge beaches.
The largest beach is the Maronti, which runs for 2 kilometers on Ischia's southern side. Cava dell'isola and Citara are two of the more popular beaches at Fioro on the island's western side, which also features many small, rocky bays where it is easy to find privacy, while the beaches of Cartaromana and Mandra offer a spectacular view of the Castello Aragonese.
These are only a sample of the beaches and coastlines waiting to be explored.
