The boat slips from the small port and the sea opens like a map — turquoise coves, chalky cliffs and the bright façades of Corricella sliding past. Guests settle on aft sofas under a wide awning as the skipper plots a day of swims, photography stops and optional landings on Procida or Ischia.

The boat slips from the small port and the sea opens like a map — turquoise coves, chalky cliffs and the bright façades of Corricella sliding past. Guests settle on aft sofas under a wide awning as the skipper plots a day of swims, photography stops and optional landings on Procida or Ischia.
This stretch of the Bay of Naples is layered with history: medieval watch towers, the 16th-century Palazzo D’Avalos that later became a prison, and the film locations of Il Postino along Pozzovecchio Beach. Geologically, the islands are volcanic outcrops — pumice and tuff sculpted by eruptions and marine erosion — which create sheltered bays and submerged caves that invite snorkeling.
Culture here leans maritime. Fishermen’s houses in Corricella keep a working-port feel; small family restaurants on Chiaiolella and Ischia serve seafood and local wines. Vivara, a narrow volcanic islet, is a protected nature reserve and a measurable contrast to the more trafficked beaches.
Practical guide: expect a 5–6 hour private cruise on a 9m gozzo with a 230hp engine, plus a reserve hull option. The skipper customizes stops — bring reef-safe sunscreen and a lightweight wind layer for open-water stretches. Snorkeling gear and bottled water are provided; consider cash for dockside restaurants. Timing matters: depart early to beat afternoon boat traffic and find quieter coves. Check cancellation and fuel policy with the operator, and confirm meeting point (Marina Grande/Ischia Porto/Monte di Procida) before departure. With basic swimming skills and sun management, this day delivers uncomplicated coastal exploration and strong photo moments.
