Spiaggia del Convento/Convent Beach, Casamicciola

A belated Buona Domenica everyone. It's been a sleepy Sunday in Ischia where relaxation reigns and we're all bobbing along rather nicely. The weather continues to play its part and a cursory glance at the forecasts shows things are looking very positive for the next week or so with temperatures ranging from 20°C (68°F) to 26°C (79°F). Those temperatures will gradually climb as we reach the epicentre of the summer and therefore visitors to the island look to keep water in close proximity. Of course the main destination for most people is the beach and there are dozens of those to choose from on the island, but there are also other options like the thermal parks that take advantage of Ischia's thermal water. The most prominent of those thermal parks are Negombo in Lacco Ameno and Poseidon in Forio to name just two. If you're planning on spending at least a couple of days here then a trip to one of those parks is a great way to spend a day and something enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. It's also really easy to get out on the water to explore the island by boat, whether driving by yourselves or having a skipper do the work for you. If you're planning a trip to Ischia soon and you'd like some further ideas for things to see and do just drop me a line and I'll be happy to help. For now I'll leave you with today's photo of Convent Beach (sounds so much better in Italian - Spiaggia del Convento) in Casamicciola and I'll be back with another update here soon. Ciao :-) ​
