Terme di Ischia Porto

Terme di Ischia Porto welcomes guests to the main port town of Ischia, the largest of the Phlegraean islands in the Bay of Naples, a volcanic island whose thermal tradition extends back to ancient Greek settlement in the 8th century BC when colonists from Euboea established the first Greek outpost on Italian soil at what they called Pithekoussai. The island's geothermal energy — produced by the same volcanic system underlying the Campi Flegrei supervolcano — feeds dozens of spa establishments that have made Ischia the thermal capital of Italy, drawing millions of visitors each year to its mineral waters, thermal pools, and mud treatments. The dramatic Aragonese Castle, perched on a basalt islet connected to the main island by a medieval causeway, towers over the port and the spa with equal grandeur, embodying the island's centuries of layered history.
