Forio is not only in an exceptional location, but also its town is gorgeous. The town stands on a promontory and overlooks the sea, so imagine a fascinating panorama that extends there.

Even the near port, not as big as that of Ischia and for this romantic, offer a particularly beautiful view. You can immediately see the dome of the Church of San Gaetano, and then the Tower and the Church of Soccorso, symbols and most characteristic monuments of the town. That is to say that in addition to the Tower, in Forio there have been very well preserved other watchtowers that are worth visiting.

As well as characteristic and intact from time the alleys of the historic center, where you can breathe the air of the ancient fishing village. In the streets you will meet the “ateliers” of local painters, the tiny craft shops of ceramics.

The island's exceptional climate attracts not only us ordinary mortals. The area of San Francesco is the meeting place for VIPs who stay in Ischia. Well, because this is how we can admire their summer residences like that of Luchino Visconti, located in the middle of the woods.

Here are also the beautiful Gardens “La Mortella”. After crossing their threshold, you will find yourself in another world: the lush greenery and the smell of tropical plants make your head spin. This was how Heaven had to be before God chased Adam and Eve from it.

The territory of this privileged municipality extends between Punta Caruso and Punta Imperatore enclosing the most beautiful beaches on the island, Chiaia and Citara. If the sea is not enough for you, you can, and I would say you must, go to the Poseidon Gardens.

It is a thermal park (yes, the island is rich in hot springs), in which there are various pools at different temperatures, surrounded by beautiful greenery. If that's not enough, directly from the baths with thermal water you can move to the beach.
