The Experience

The boat leaves from Sorrento and heads into the Gulf of Naples, passing Nisida Island—a small volcanic islet with a Roman military history—and the Campi Flegrei's volcanic landscapes before reaching Cape Miseno. From there, the route turns toward Ischia, where Maronti Beach stretches almost three kilometers along the coast. A stop at the Green Grotto lets you swim and snorkel in a natural rock cavity where light bounces off the water in shades of green. The Aragonese Castle, perched on a colossal rock and reached by a 220-meter bridge, anchors the Ischia leg of the day.

After free time to explore Ischia on your own—the skipper can suggest the distinctive three-wheeled Apecars that run around the island—the boat sails toward Procida. The route passes Vivara Islet, a nature reserve, then stops at Terra Murata, a hilltop village crowned by the former Avalos Palace prison with views across the whole archipelago. Marina di Corricella, known for the bright colors of its waterfront houses, comes next, followed by another hour or two of free time to walk the island at your pace. The return to Sorrento includes a limoncello tasting aboard before docking.

Towels, bottled water, soft drinks, snacks and fruit are provided; the skipper is a professional English or Italian speaker. Snorkeling gear can be brought from home or rented on board for €15 per mask and €9 per snorkel. Docking fees to Ischia (€50) and Procida (€30) may apply depending on where the boat stops. The tour is private—only your group boards—and the itinerary can shift based on what you want to see and how long you want to stay in each place.
