Inar Travel

Ischia is one of the largest islands in the Bay of Naples located in just 17 kilometers apart from the island of Capri and Naples. Sandy beaches, pine forests, endless vineyards, chestnuts, olives and citrus groves… No wonder why Ischia is translated as a “Green Island”.

This island is of volcanic origin; it has been known since ancient times for its thermal and mineral springs, natural geysers and hot sands. The therapeutic effect of thermal waters is known since ancient times -even Pliny the Elder, Strabo and Tacitus wrote about it. Mud therapy and kinesiotherapy are particularly recommended as a treatment for injuries and fractures as well as for rehabilitation in various diseases. The course of medication can take place in the baths at hotels via natural sources or unique thermal gardens existing only here on Ischia island (Park Terme Castiglione, Giardini Poseidon, Aphrodite and Apollo). Due to the chemical, physical and biological properties Ischia waters are very useful in various diseases as well as for general prophylaxis.

At the same time the treatment in Ischia seeks to unite Western science with ancient Eastern medicine. In recent years many spa facilities started offering Eastern massage techniques along with classic hydrotherapy procedures.

In addition to mineral springs, Ischia is known for other natural phenomena too. This is primarily fumarole and so-called “natural furnace.” Off the coast of Maronti and Citara vacationers can enjoy hot tubs filled with water from underground springs; the part of the beach in San-Angelo is even fenced – there is such a hot sand here! Chick with potatoes is baked merely in the sand during various folkloric events.

Even the fact of staying on the island will have a salutary effect on you – a mild climate and generous and lush nature, simple and at the same time refined Mediterranean cuisine, traditional hospitality – all of this will make your stay a memorable one.
