Terme Vulpiano is a volcanic hot spring resort on the island of Ischia in the Bay of Naples, Italy, where the thermal activity of a still partially active volcanic system drives naturally heated sodium, chloride, and sulfate-rich mineral waters to the surface in one of the Mediterranean's most celebrated thermal bathing destinations. Ischia has been famous for its thermal springs since antiquity — the Romans knew it as Aenaria and prized its volcanic waters — and the island remains Italy's premier thermal island resort, drawing over two million visitors annually to its thermal parks, spa hotels, and natural beach hot springs. Terme Vulpiano offers the distinctively volcanic mineral experience of Ischia's superheated saline and sulfurous waters in a resort setting that captures the island's unique combination of Mediterranean beauty, volcanic geology, and centuries-old thermal tradition.

Insider tip — Terme Vulpiano is one of the many thermal establishments on Ischia island in the Gulf of Naples, an extinct volcanic crater whose entire interior is geothermally active. The sodium-chloride and sulfate-rich waters here emerge at over 40°C from volcanic fissures and are channeled into outdoor thermal pools overlooking terraced lemon groves. Ischia has been celebrated for its curative waters since antiquity — Greek colonists from nearby Cuma bathed here as early as the 8th century BC.
