Ischia and the surrounding area

The "Garden of Europe" or "Green Island" are just a few of the names with which Ischia has become known in the world as a high-value tourist resort, where nothing is taken for granted, where nature wanted to show the result of the marriage between water and fire. The island of Ischia is a spectacle of biological, landscape, historical, cultural and tourist diversity. To give a quick idea of ​​the island of Ischia it is enough to say that it has a very high concentration of hotels, thermal parks, churches and beaches ... perhaps the highest in Italy considering the relatively small surface of the island. There are in fact almost 400 small, medium and large structures, on the sea or in the mountains, pensions and luxury hotels. The island of Ischia is located in the Gulf of Naples from which it is 29 km away and from the Flegrean coast is only 10 km. It is part of the Flegrean Islands along with Procida, Vivara and Nisida and has six municipalities: Ischia (common name of the whole island), Casamicciola Terme, Lacco Ameno, Forio, Serrara Fontana and Barano d'Ischia. The whole island has an extension of 46.5 sq. Km, a perimeter of 34 km and Mount Epomeo (the highest) emerges from the sea for 789 m. With its 62,027 inhabitants (ISTAT 2009) is the third most populous Italian island, after Sicily and Sardinia. The variety of elements of which Ischia is constituted, also abducts the most distracted visitor. Stunning natural scenarios, spontaneous thermal springs, first-class hotels, Mediterranean cuisine and history are just some of the attractions that attract tourists from all over the world on the island. Originally of volcanic origin, Ischia has come to life with rock climbing over the past 150,000 years, with deposits of effusive and explosive eruptions that have generated heavenly glimpses, bays, coasts and beaches of absolute splendor, but also peaks and hills covered with pine forests and chestnut woods that gave the name of "Green Island" to Ischia. The Aragonese Castle, the Saracen towers and the Greek-Roman excavations also confirm the important historical passages of the island in the Mediterranean scenery. In addition, a large number of cetaceans populate the waters off the Ischitian coasts (stenelle, grampi, whales, capodogli and dolphins) to prove the quality of the surrounding sea, which has always been considered florid and fishy.
