Suio Terme is an ancient thermal locality in the hamlet of Suio within the municipality of Castelforte in the province of Latina, southern Lazio, Italy, where the Garigliano River — the ancient Liris — flows through a valley between the Aurunci and Mainarde mountains and where bicarbonated sulfurous carbonated springs have been channeled for therapeutic bathing since Roman times at this strategic point between Lazio and Campania. The thermal waters of Suio emerge from geological contact zones in the limestone and dolomite formations of the southern Apennines, a hydrothermal system that has provided consistent spring flow since antiquity and supports a range of balneotherapy applications rooted in the classical Italian terme tradition. Suio Terme's ancient thermal heritage, its riverside setting on the historic Garigliano, and its sulfurous bicarbonated waters combine to make it one of the lesser-known but historically significant spa localities of central-southern Italy.

Insider tip — Suio Terme sits in the Garigliano River gorge on the Lazio-Campania border, where volcanic thermal activity from the Roccamonfina volcano complex heats bicarbonate and sulfurous springs to comfortable bathing temperatures. The outdoor pools overlook the gorge carved through Mesozoic limestone, with Roman-era thermal installations still visible nearby. The spa is particularly popular with Neapolitan and Roman day-trippers seeking accessible nature bathing.
