Two Islands, One Day: A Private Boat Passage from Piano di Sorrento to Ischia & Procida.
Embark from Piano di Sorrento for an eight‑hour private boat tour that threads the volcanic coastline of the Bay of Naples to two very different islands. Ischia delivers wild, thermal landscapes and famed spas—the Aragonese Castle rising on its rock islet—while nearby Procida folds inward with a compact, pastel‑clad harbor and an authentic fishing‑village feel. The day includes thermal bays, seaside villages and a lunch at Marina della Corricella beneath the island’s colorful houses.

Outing Highlights
The Aragonese Castle’s island silhouette
One of the trip’s signature sights is the imposing profile of the Aragonese Castle, perched on a small volcanic rock islet off Ischia—an unmistakable landmark seen from the water.
Thermal bays and natural baths
The itinerary gives time to admire Ischia’s thermal bays, including the Bay of Sorgeto, where natural hot springs meet the sea—a highlight for those drawn to the island’s spa reputation.
Marina della Corricella and Sant'Angelo
Procida’s Marina della Corricella—ringed by pastel houses—and Sant'Angelo on Ischia, a fishing village set into the rock, are the tour’s most picturesque stops and the setting for a seaside lunch.
