Set out from Marina Grande on Capri for a day that moves at the pace of the sea: volcanic islets and castle silhouettes give way to thermal bays, fishing‑village alleys and a waterfront of pastel houses. The route stitches together Ischia’s hot springs and cliffside hamlets with Procida’s tightly packed Corricella—an intimate, waterborne survey of landscape and local life.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE LANDMARK

The Aragonese Castle’s imposing profile

One of the earliest sights after leaving Capri, the Aragonese Castle sits on a small volcanic rock islet and provides a dramatic focal point as you cruise toward Ischia.

THE WELLNESS

Bay of Sorgeto’s natural thermal baths

A rare coastal thermal inlet where warm springs meet the sea—one of the tour’s signature stops and a chance to experience Ischia’s geothermal character.

THE VILLAGE

Marina della Corricella and Sant'Angelo’s pastel lanes

Procida’s Marina della Corricella, with its pastel houses overlooking the sea, and Sant'Angelo’s rock‑set fishing village are the trip’s cultural heart, culminating in a seaside lunch among narrow streets and boats.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

This is a deliberate, seaside circuit: depart Capri’s Marina Grande, skirt dramatic headlands and beaches, drop anchor near thermal springs and cliffside villages, then cross to Procida to wander Corricella and eat seafood by the water. It’s a compact mix of cruising, short swims or dips, shoreline photo stops and a relaxed lunch ashore—framed by volcanic rock, warm currents and low, coastal villages.
