    Fantastic views
    Nice place with two cafe shops on way round
    Would recommend going early to be out the heat as involves lots of steps

    Would strongly recommend this
    The views are absolutely stunning at the top

    It takes a bit of navigating on the bus routes if you have no car….but we managed it and it shouldn’t put you off.

    It’s about 3km total from the bus stop (which is the one by the Jesus status - google it and there’s loads of advice on how to get onto the trail).

    The walk up is steep - but there’s no rush. Just take your time. There’s a cafe half way up and at the top.

    We chose to get up early one day and although October was still hot by the time we got up there about 10am.

    The path is well sheltered though so although it’ll get your heart rate up and you might want a fresh t-shirt of the rest of the day….it’s magical up there

    Caught the bus from ischia porto easy to get to the gardens, just make sure you check opening times. Once inside the beautiful gardens are a joy to walk around, not over run with crowds, funny cacti to look at great planting, lunch in the cafe amazing bruschetta, with the peacocks strutting round was fun. Go visit this place, bus stop to return is just a few yards outside of entrance.

    A long hike or short boat ride from St.Angelo. Very scenic, a few hundred steps down to the beach. Limited sitting space other than some rocks. Water is very warm.

    Restaurant at the water level was empty and when they seated us it was in the rear? Why? They said they had customers coming… none ever showed up and we left.

    Decided to take a local bus and head down to this beach. There are plenty of loungers (at a price) you can hang out on. This is very large beach, plenty of space. Great for all ages and families. There's plenty of food options and the water was so nice! Worth spending a day here and relaxing.

    Gorgeous views. Beautiful aqua blue water but it was a bit dirty due to algae and turf from the waves. Overall nice beach with free entry and shops and places to eat right across from the water

    Arriving by boat, I swam in from fairly far out. The water was clean, but there were few swimmers in the water. A sand bar where you can stand on the bottom is found about 100 yards out and then a deeper section before you hit the beach. I thought the rough sand/fine gravel on the beach was fascinating because of the variations in color, ranging from some green colored material, to black, to brown, to a light brown. I did not use the facilities on the beach.

    We found this beach not far from where we stayed. It's not very big so don't know how it would be if it got very crowded. When we went twice it was fine. There are sunbeds as usual @ €24 for 2 with umbrella but we didn't get them as we were only there for a couple of hours each time. The public part is small but manageable. Definitely take an umbrella with you here as there is little shade. Water is warm with grainy sand. Waves can be strong and it gets deep quickly so not ideal for young children but saying that our 5 year old loved it as long as he had a float and of course a parent stayed with him in the water. There is a small drinks bar here also. There are steep steps down to the beach but worth it .

    Lovely little beach if you’re up for a nice long stroll down a windy road and steps, and back up again. I love that it wasn’t as crowded as the other beaches probably because it’s not as readily accessible. The sun goes down over the mountain around 3/4pm but I didn’t mind at all and had a really nice day there. Two restaurants serve food and have a typical café/bar for beverages but I brought my lunch. I did unfortunately find some trash on the beach maybe from the wind washing it ashore, so I implore you to pick up and throw away anything you see to help keep the beaches and sea life healthy!

    I visited this place by chance and would highly recommend stopping by. Absolutely amazing to see how much work he has put into his home which is still being expanded with more tunnels going further into the mountains. He says he has been working on the house for over 40 years and is not done yet! He does not charge for guided tours but has a fountain where you can leave a donation if desired.

    The museum is really a great source of information, despite it's exterior that is falling down a bit. If you are interested in archaeology and the geological history of the island, this is a must see. The gardens are nice as well.

    A rock that looks like a fungus - no more no less ;-) A cool rock that shows you are in Lacca Ameno .
