BOAT TOURS OF ISCHIA
The Bay of La Scannella, Panza
Ischia Review offers private boat tours tours of the island for couples, individuals or any size group from 1 to 10 people. These are private tours so you don't share with people you don't know and the skippers speak English.
Seeing Ischia from the water is perhaps the best and most relaxing way to discover the island. With our island tours we provide you with an English-speaking skipper for the day and he'll be there to look after you throughout the whole day.
The tours start at 10am and finish around 5:30pm, although there is flexibility and we can start and finish earlier or later if required. We can start the tour from the closest marina to you so any of Forio, Ischia Porto, Lacco Ameno, Casamicciola or Sant'Angelo. There are also some hotels on the island with their own jetty where we can collect you from and drop you off at the end of the tour.
Once the skipper collects you he'll take you on a full circuit of the island, stopping at various places to swim and snorkel if you want to. You'll see all of the main sights including Castello Aragonese and Maronti Beach as well as each of the island's towns listed above. There are also lots of pretty bays around the island that are best accessed from the water such as La Scannella and La Scarrupata, two of the best places for snorkelling with some interesting marine-life to be spotted.
The skipper's job is to make sure you have a memorable day and he's there to look after any needs you might have. He usually follows a set route, making the most of the time available so that you see the best places but he'll also listen to any particular wishes you may have if you want to go to a specific place or if you want to stop and have a walk around somewhere like the village of Sant'Angelo for example.
All of the boats come with a canopy so you'll have plenty of shade throughout the day but you can also sunbathe as and when you want to.
We offer a package that includes drinks on-board throughout the day (mostly soft-drinks but with a few beers included), towels and snorkelling masks. We also include the skipper and the fuel in the price package.
There are several restaurants around the island that can only be reached from the water and our skipper will take you through these various options on the day if you'd like to stop at one of them. Alternatively you can bring your own food on-board or choose to stop and eat in one of the towns along the way.

Latest FEEDBACK
Wednesday 13 October 2021
We were gobsmacked by the sheer wonder and joy derived from our spectacular day-long private boat tour (booked via Ischia Review on a Conero 660). We chose this boat adventure for our day-one introduction to the island.
Do not miss booking this excursion! Seriously, it provided a perfect way to learn about the island and get quickly into some lovely coves and caves for swimming and snorkelling. I'm very familiar with boats, and I was extremely impressed by our captain's expertise at safely negotiating his craft into the lovely caves.
Dario (the stellar captain) took us to extraordinary places that eclipsed the cays and coves I've enjoyed in Greece and the Caribbean! Ischia's coast is an unparalleled paradise, and the water's infinite visibility provides blissful swimming and snorkelling. The icing on the cake was Dario's detailed and magical histories of the island and life on this lovely slice of heaven off of Naples; we also simply enjoyed his agreeable and fun-loving sense of humor.
We spent a memorable, amazing day—laughing, visiting, swimming, and devouring an exceptional, leisurely meal at La Scarrupata (only accessible by boat). Everywhere we went the next 10-days, we felt that Dario had already introduced us to his wondrous island.
We enjoyed a magical vacation and will absolutely return to Ischia. Ischia Review provided the foundation for our enchantment with this lovely Italian island. Merci beaucoup Dion and Dario!

Hi Dion,
Just wanted to say a big thank you for our tour yesterday.
We had a fabulous time and couldn’t believe how different and wonderful the island is compared to Capri. We
just loved swimming in all those spots, and those thermal springs blew our mind.
Gian Luigi was a great tour guide and very informative. He really made the day for us. Please pass on our thanks
and gratitude.
Thanks again, and hopefully I’ll be back one day.
Take care,
Cheers,
Lou

The boat is beautiful the island is beautiful the experience of swimming in caves and thermal springs brought ischia to life in a way that wouldn’t have been possible without your guidance and at the hands of Dario.

Hi Dion,
Thank you for your help with the boat tour - we were able to easily locate the ATM in Ischia Porto before locating Angelo. We had a wonderful day on the boat! We got to swim in a few different areas, visit sargetto, went to La Pace on Angelo’s recommendation which was lovely, and had the most beautiful weather the whole time. It was truly excellent. And Angelo was so sweet, brought us breakfast, let us play music, and really do whatever we wanted. He was great!
We are leaving the island today and so sad to go but know we will be back to see more of it. I wanted to tell you, we received a recommendation for Pietro Paulo Said Stalino for dinner and went there last night. It was FANTASTIC! Highly recommend it for others saying nearby. We took the water taxi from Sant’angelo and actually walked home to work off the wine and pasta and rabbit :)
Thank you for all of your patience and help with planning our day on the boat and our trip in general. It has been a dream!
Grazie mille!!!!!

Dion at Ischia Review helped us book a private boat with a skipper. He was very quick to respond, great communication and easy to deal with. We had the best day ever with the skipper Arcangelo, who had great knowledge of the island and was just everything we could ever wish for. A day to remember. I highly recommend Ischia review’s services! Thanks again!
Best wishes,

I just wanted to get in touch and let you know what a fantastic day we had with Francesco.
He made us incredibly comfortable as soon as we arrived onboard and was so attentive to our needs all day long.

From checking out your website, making our initial enquiry, to being sent all the booking details, we were really impressed with how professional your company is.
We will be sure to suggest your business, and specifically Francesco to all of our friends who plan to visit.
Thanks for the great day!
