Ischia and Procida: Full-Day Boat Experience from Naples
Sail the Flegrean Islands and discover two of Campania's most captivating coastal gems in a single day.
This boat tour to Ischia and Procida from Naples offers a rare chance to explore two distinct island personalities — one wild and unspoiled, the other lush and thermally rich — without ever leaving the comfort of a vessel gliding through the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Procida, the smallest of the Flegrean Islands, remains one of the least commercialized destinations in the Gulf of Naples. Its wide beaches, hidden coves, and colorful harbor villages feel genuinely removed from the pressures of mass tourism, making it a compelling stop for those who prefer authenticity over spectacle.
Ischia, known as the green island, presents a striking contrast with its dense Mediterranean vegetation cascading toward a crystalline sea. The island has long been prized as a destination for thermal wellness, and its natural hot springs and volcanic mud baths draw visitors seeking both relaxation and rejuvenation.
The journey between islands is itself part of the experience, offering panoramic views of the Campanian coastline, historic fortifications rising from the sea, and the kind of open-water calm that only a boat excursion can provide.
Tour Highlights
Swim and snorkel in the crystal-clear waters surrounding both Ischia and Procida from the boat.
Admire the iconic Aragonese Castle rising dramatically from a rocky islet off the coast of Ischia.
Discover Ischia's famous thermal coast, including the Cavascura thermal baths and the warm waters of Sorgeto Bay.
Circumnavigate Ischia by boat and take in its dramatic volcanic landscape, coves, and Maronti beach.
Relax on deck as the boat moves between islands, soaking in open sea views of the Gulf of Naples.
Experience Procida's near-pristine natural beauty, characterized by unspoiled bays and a low-impact tourism atmosphere.
Benefit from a convenient hotel shuttle and port transfer, making logistics straightforward from the moment you depart.
Itinerary
A complimentary shuttle departs from Hotel Terminus in Naples, transferring guests by minibus or minivan to the boarding point at the port of Piano di Sorrento. The transfer sets the tone for a seamless day on the water.
The boat departs and makes its way toward Ischia, the largest of the Flegrean Islands. As the vessel approaches, the island's green hillsides and volcanic profile come into view.
The boat tours the perimeter of Ischia, allowing passengers to observe major landmarks from the sea, including the Aragonese Castle and the long stretch of Maronti beach. Depending on conditions, the route may include a stop at either the Cavascura thermal baths or the warm volcanic waters of Sorgeto Bay.
Guests have the opportunity to swim and relax in the clear waters near Ischia before the boat continues its journey. This unstructured time allows for personal exploration at a comfortable pace.
The boat heads toward Procida, the smallest and most intimate of the Flegrean Islands. The crossing reveals sweeping coastal views and the distinct character of each island as the scenery shifts.
Guests discover Procida's bays, coves, and colorful waterfront before the boat begins its return journey to the port. The day concludes with a minibus transfer back to the starting point in Naples.
