Ischia: A Surprising Sense of Peace in the Gulf of Naples

In this episode we're hopping over to the lesser-known island of Ischia. Ischia is an island renown in Italy for its thermal springs and spas, though "renown" might be a bit strong, seeing as outside of Italy it isn't very well known at all. We'll tell you about the town of Ischia proper and Ischia Porto and a little about our experience visiting for the first time. We found it useful—and fun!—to talk about the "vibe" of Capri and Sorrento as a way of framing the town, so in this episode we're doing a vibe check for Ischia. We'll get into how to get to Ischia and what there is to do on the island in the next episode. However, if you're looking for a ferry to get there, you have a few options. Below are links to ferry companies that can take you to Ischia.To Ischia from Naples CaremarAlilauroMedmarTo Ischia from SorrentoAlilauroYou can join our Patreon for free!
