A day circling Ischia: private launch from Sorrento through castle silhouettes and thermal bays.
From Sorrento’s small marina, a private boat unfurls a full-day passage to Ischia—an island of wild beaches, steaming springs and pastel villages. Over eight hours, a professional skipper threads coastal cliffs and open sea to deliver the island’s signature sights: the Aragonese Castle rising from rock, secluded coves warmed by thermal waters and the intimate harbor lanes of Sant'Angelo.
