The Islands


8. Capri

The Pearl of the Gulf, with a shape of pregnant woman laying in the sea, is the most famous island of the Gulf. It has fascinated emperors, directors, politicians, philosophers and normal people either by its wild beauty or by the dolce vita you may always smell in the air. Therefore Capri is ideal for combining a high profile cultural visit with a funny look back to the life and habits of the VIPs who came regularly here, from the Roman Emperor Tiberius to Aristotle Onassiss or Alex Munthe, just to mention some names.


9. Ischia

Ischia, known as the Green island, is another volcanic island that form the extreme point of Campi Flegrei. Much bigger than the other islands, it hosts also an old dead volcan and dozen of still active thermal springs. In fact, one of its best attractions are these thermal baths and beauty treatments offered in comfortable and attractive complexes by the sea. But Ischia, or better Pythecusa was also the first colony of Magna Grecia and it has a small but interesting museum dedicated to the findings of the old greek colony. Interesting cultural tours are possible in the several municipalities of the island.


10. Procida

The smallest island of the Gulf, is a little treasure of Mediterranean taste with fishermen villages that embrace the tufa edges of this other volcanic island. Nice Churches, the old castle-prison and wonderful sceneries of both Pozzuoli and Naples Gulf make it very pleasant.
