About Ischia
This green, volcanic island in the Bay of Naples trades Capri's glamour for thermal spa gardens and hot springs — and like its famous neighbour, it's reachable only by sea, with no airport or bridge to the mainland. Fast passenger hydrofoils cross from Naples' Molo Beverello in roughly 50 minutes to just over an hour; slower car ferries sail from Naples' Calata Porta di Massa or from Pozzuoli, which is closer, cheaper and the smart choice if you are bringing a vehicle.
