The day begins at Molo Beverello, where you meet the assistant and embark on an experience designed to make you forget the pace of the city. You immediately board the hydrofoil bound for Ischia Harbor, leaving the Gulf of Naples behind as the outline of the Green Island draws ever closer. Once you disembark, the journey continues with the water still in sight: you board Francesco's Boston Whaler for a short and pleasant cruise along the coast, ready to enjoy the sea breeze.
The first real stop is at one of the famous “Bagni”, where the welcome has the authentic flavor of Ischian hospitality. A glass of chilled wine paired with a cone of fried calamari awaits guests – the perfect way to kick off the morning at the beach. After relaxing for a while, you'll take a seat in the shade of the gazebo on the sand for a lunch that celebrates local tradition. The table is laden with bruschetta with tomato, eggplant parmigiana, calamari and the quintessential jug of wine with sliced peaches, followed by a light finish with a platter of fresh fruit.
In the early afternoon, we set sail again, heading for Sant'Angelo. This ancient fishing village, entirely pedestrianized, welcomes guests for some free time. Strolling through its quiet streets, admiring the pastel-colored houses and enjoying a coffee in the little square evokes a sense of peace from bygone days.
Finally, you'll board the boat again to return to Ischia Porto, enjoying one last view of the coastline before boarding the hydrofoil back to Naples, concluding a day spent entirely amid the scent of the sea and the flavors of the island.
